Mets fans are “entitled”? This has got to be amog the most retarded things ever written. Really… do you write speeches for Dan Quayle? Maybe you’re the gem behind the wisdom of “The future will be better tomorrow.” It obviously comes from the “if I say it with confidence, it must be true” line of thought.

Mets fans are all too aware of how hard it is to win a championship. You can’t be “entitled” after just 2 WS wins… and a couple of other WS appearances. You just can’t. Its unimaginably dumb to even accuse someone of that.

YANKEE fans might be entitled… but lumping Mets fans and Yankee fans together is one of the dumbest things anyone ever tried to make someone else believe.

Last nights game didn't even matter or this series for that matter. We are still playing in August. We can talk when the season is down to 2 weeks. Like I said last night.

However, in our "bandbox" one never knows and we need Rollins to continue his 2007 MVP version of play. If somehow the Phillies win tonight, it will be their first series win vs the Mets (having lost all four series so far this season).Let's go Phillies!

Does that mean he will not pitch tonight? And if he is going to pitch tonight, is it going to affect him? The question I have right now is, they had Kendrick warming up to pitch yesterday.

Isnt it an advantage for every hitter.

The Mets fans know we are passionate and can create a homefield advantage unlike any other. They can talk bandbox all they want -- Fenway is a hitter's park, Yankee Stadium is a hitter's park on one hand; Dodger Stadium and their no-winning-anything-selves stands as a pitcher's park -- we play all nine innings and never quit!The part is -- Mets fans are typical NY/NJ area fans -- a presumptive corwd, thinking they are entitled. They pick from 11 major sports clubs and assume they will or must win for the good of America. So that the Phils have their number and are their rivals eats at them.How could Team 10,000 own them? How could they lose a division to the Phillies?Here comes a fun, great September. I had the pleasure of watching the Mets broadcast as well.
