Breakout The Time Machine!

"A team is where a boy can prove his courage on his own. A gang is where a coward goes to hide."
Mickey Mantle



Not since April 19th, April 19th have the lovable Mets been in first place. That is until around 3pm today! The Mets are back were they belong! Get out of our spot Philly, go worship some more fake sports figures ( they have a statue of Rocky, Rocky, on their City Hall stairs! What a joke!). The city of chumps, not champs. Now it is time for the Mets to turn up the heat and see who wants to stay in the kitchen. Who knew that the Mets had this fight, this gumption to stare the enemy in the eyes and get slammed to the cam pass. Stand right up wipe the blood, smile and ask "Is that all you've got?". Heart is the end-all-and-be-all in sports. The Mets gave up 6 runs in the ninth on Tuesday night, but just like that, they are in first after taking two straight in less then 24 hours. Only can you taste the sweet, after you have tasted the sour Mets' fans. Do not quit this year, it has a feelin' to it, the season that is. It only took a little over 3 months for the Mets to reclaim the top spot. Man, who would have thought that would have been the outcome after the debacle that was Tuesday night. Up 5-2 the Mets let up 5 runs before they were able to get one out, but boom! Now it is late Thursday night and everybody can careless about Tuesday, because we are in first. Man, it was a great felling today to watch Delgado get the game winning hit against a tough lefty who had allowed something like 5 hits to 66 lefty batters, give or take a few. Well, we are back in first and lets hope for long. Let the push begin, now if only we could get some re enforcements for the lineup, maybe Raul Ibanez from the Mariners?!?!?! One can only wish, but for now. Stick those tongues towards Philly, believe you me they can see them all the way from Jersey. Lets Go Metssss!!!!!!
