Grrrumpy Miner… well said. We can play well with guys like you… we know you’re a Mets fan and that’s fine but you don’t come on here with your chest puffed out like most of these North Jersey guidos… the ones who call themselves Mets fans until the Yankees are in the World Series. I don’t think anyone is walking away with the division and I don’t see how anyone could think that’s going to happen after one game. Our ace hasn’t started yet. Your pen looked good… against the Reds. I still think that those two additions are overrated (when you think about what you lost)… if it was my team, I would have rather seen them add three or four solid relievers rather than two studs.

Frand, I have an Italian phrase for you;

“E tu sei un fesso.”

Phillyhater… at least we know what we’re getting with you.

First game of the season,we haven’t seen anything yet.Yet its so fun to see everyone beat their chest and show their machismo and bravado and yet nobody has one anything yet in this young season.
P.S. – Sorry, forgot to tell you great post!

Excuse me? How was I complaining about the fans being arrogant? As someone who has attended the home opener 9 years in a row and goes to atleast a dozen games a year while living 2.5 hours away I was simply pointing out that Phillies fans have a reason, and a right to be arrogant, at least for this year. The whole point of my post was to say that we have a reason to be arrogant when the Mets fans do not. Not sure how that fact escaped you but next time try reading a little more carefully before you try and call me out.

So I guess we don’t need to play the other 161 games. I mean, just hand the division over, right? Because 1 game means the world. I mean, we all know that there are absolutely no questions in regards to Mike Pelfrey, Oliver Perez, John Maine, or whoever the 5th starter would be, right?

Man you Mets fans make me laugh when you get overconfident so quickly. Served you guys very well the past two seasons, why not three times?

Just like how 7 up with 17 to go was a piece case, or 3.5 up with 17 to go would be a piece of cake. And how the champagne would taste that much sweeter?

It’s one game in. There’s a lot of season left.

Didn’t know that the standings really meant that much to you 1 game into the season. Premature, don’t you think?

Sheffield, Mets…. all I have to say is who cares. Lets focus on the Phillies and what they need to do.

The Phillies need to score runs regardless of who is pitching, even though Myers gave up 4, our bats did not wake up till it was too late. If they would have come back in the ninth we would not be complaingin so much. If Myers only gave up a 2 run homer we still would have lost:(

Lets stop worry about how good or not good the mets are. Thats what they want us to do. They have won nothing since 86, I was in the 6th grade! They need to earn the concern, not just go out and buy it… Look at the Yankees….Kaboom!

Hmm good point. You know what it is though, you see Yankees fans everywhere.

Havoc,

False, Sox fans are worse. They come out of the woodwork, and say words like “wicked”.
