The Mets didn't win the division in 2000. Do not question Jetnation. Blackout™ 09-19-2006, 01:57 PM congrats Mets fans Exit 117 09-19-2006, 03:13 PM The Mets didn't win the division in 2000. Do not question Jetnation. And they did make the WS, which is by no means a disappointment. kloogy 09-19-2006, 03:37 PM And they did make the WS, which is by no means a disappointment. Who beat you that year ? Exit 117 09-19-2006, 04:10 PM Who beat you that year ? What is the relevance? kloogy 09-19-2006, 04:43 PM What is the relevance? I asked you a simple question. That's all. :) Jetcane 09-19-2006, 05:08 PM Does anyone else see the similarities between Patsy fans and Yanks fans? Exit 117 09-19-2006, 05:31 PM Does anyone else see the similarities between Patsy fans and Yanks fans?Exactly what I was thinking. kloogy 09-19-2006, 05:41 PM Exactly what I was thinking. So you can't even bring yourself to answer my question ? Exit 117 09-19-2006, 06:25 PM So you can't even bring yourself to answer my question ? It's completely irrelevant to the thread. They could have lost to the Royals for all I care; making the World Series is never a disappointment, and I wouldn't say their recent 5 years of disappointment are over until they make it again. Gainzo 09-19-2006, 06:33 PM Quick Question. Does anyone else think the Mets celebration last night was a little over the top? I hope that the baseball gods don't punish them for that in the playoffs. #27TheDominator 09-19-2006, 07:29 PM It's completely irrelevant to the thread. They could have lost to the Royals for all I care; making the World Series is never a disappointment, and I wouldn't say their recent 5 years of disappointment are over until they make it again. Then why does everybody say it's a disappointment for the Yanks? kloogy 09-19-2006, 08:26 PM Quick Question. Does anyone else think the Mets celebration last night was a little over the top? I hope that the baseball gods don't punish them for that in the playoffs. What do you expect ? They rarely get to visit the postseason.

Hate to quote myself, but I have not read anything defending this behaviour. Gainzo 09-19-2006, 11:41 PM Hate to quote myself, but I have not read anything defending this behaviour. Once again............ Are all you Mets fans embarrassed by this? Exit 117 09-20-2006, 07:12 AM Once again............ Are all you Mets fans embarrassed by this?No. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Latinlawyer 09-20-2006, 11:27 AM Once again............ Are all you Mets fans embarrassed by this? A few factors to condiser when evaluating this celebration: 1) First Mets Division Title since 1988 (18 years) 2) A few vets had never been to the post season (Lo Duca, Delgado..etc) 3) They had waited a few games to celebrate (sweep in Pittsburg) 4)Lost of youngsters on team (Reyes, Wright, Millegdge) So, it can all be explained. And no, i dont think it was over the top... LL |
