Around SBN: The Worst Team Ever Projected?

Mets Fans/Phillies Fans

We all know if you're a Mets fan you hate the Phillies. Well That got me to thinking. Do you dislike the Phillies fans, or just the Phillies?  As for me I just dislike the Phillies. In a lot of ways  Phillies fans are just like Mets fans accept for rooting for the Phillies. I mean Phillies fans are just as critical and hard on their team as Mets fans are. Any player knows if they play for either of these teams they better perform or they'll be booed. The Phillies fans have been through all of the hardships just like the Mets fans. Now you could say that about any team, but I see a difference. I mean let's take the Pirates for instance. Their fans expect them to lose, so they aren't near as hard on them or themselves as we would be. I really think Mets and Phillies fans take losses harder then most fans of their team  do. Discounting the Yankees, Red Sox and Cubs fans. I don't know I kinda drifted into 2 different topics there. Anyways what's your take?

Screw the Phillies and their fans.

The time has come for someone to put his foot down. And that foot is me.

Maybe

Mets and Phillie fans are cut from a similar mold, so we naturally dislike each other. I must admit that while I hate the Braves and Phillies. I’ve never met a Braves fan that I hated, but I can’t say the same about Phillie fans.

Braves fans

I put Braves fans in a total different class. Atlanta ain’t much of a sports town if you ask me.

True

They are unpassionate losers. Maybe thats why I don’t hate them.

The Fans

I like teams that are all rivals of Philly teams. Most fans can be civilized but at the same time most fans are loud, annoying, and put their teams that haven’t won championships since a decade before I was born on a pedestal.

Phillies fans

I lived in Philly for about 10 years (just moved last year) and, let me tell you, I can’t STAND their fans. First of all, they’re giant bandwagoners. No one gives a rat’s ASS about the Phillies if they’re not winning. Second of all, most of them know NOTHING about baseball. They just, as bandwagoners do, want to back a winner. Hate them with a passion.

I was flipping through some of my parents' photo albums this afternoon in search of one particular shot of the sign my older sister made for Mets Banner Day back in the late eighties. Though I didn't find that one — I'll post it when I eventually track it down, and I can assure you that it's Keith-themed — but I did stumble upon this wonderful photo of my younger sister's stuffed animal menagerie spread out in front of a glorious rainbow-festooned Mets pennant, also from the late eighties.

She works for the HRC now and was particularly delighted to be reminded of this photo.

Now that banner day is back, hopefully this years will look a little like this. I know it's not great, but i don't pretend to be a professional. embiggen!
In order to raise extra capital, the Mets have explored signing Kosuke Fukudome to a minor league contract with an invitation to Spring Training (replete with curiously high uniform number).
i saw this on the marlins statue/abomination story. gif in the comments
