these phils fans are really passionate

if this happened at citi field, dodger stadium, wrigley, anywhere else, nearly all the fans would be gone by now

A world series game, people would leave, are you crazy?

No they wouldn't

And most of these fans weren’t even fans until 2007. Philadelphia is a football city, not baseball.

Shit ain't right.

Just saw this at Pinstripe Alley. I’m swallowing my pride so I can root for the Yanks this WS, but c’mon. I can only take so much.

by The Kernge on Nov 1, 2009 12:19 AM EDT reply actions  

kind of uncalled for

They’re in the world series for gods sake… and the best they can do to entertain themselves is make fun of the Mets? That’s a really sad commentary on their fan base. They dislike the Mets more than they like their respective teams I guess. Thats a weak group of fans, just makes me proud to be a Mets fan instead.

This type of douchebaggery why I'm hoping the Yankees lose.

Seriously, fuck the Yankees.

Yes it is

They are even making fun of when clemens threw the bat at Piazza how the fuck is the funny.And people say we hate them more than they hate us it’s more 50/50

Introducing Buddy Alderson, Sandy's dog, and the newest member of Puppy Avenue!

Embiggen here.
Judging by the comments to Matt Callan’s ode to 1986 Mets: A Year To Remember from a few weeks back, the video has a devoted Mets fan following. Despite being too young to remember anything about that season, it has a special place in my fandom as well. It was part of a two video rotation (Ghostbusters being the other) which ran almost daily on my television for a few years in the early 90s. And it remained a once-in-awhile watch through high school and college. 

Unsurprisingly, the physical tape deteriorated over time, and the screen jumps and sound skips made for a less than optimal viewing experience. With sale of the video discontinued, my brother converted it to DVD and gave it to me for Christmas in 2010. See the picture above for the box and DVD. He even created a scene selection function which can be accessed from the main menu. "Get Metsmerized!" plays on loop on the menu screen. It is my favorite Christmas gift ever and is still nice to throw on for a viewing.

"How'd we do it? Mirrors!"
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.
