There seem to be a lot of "children" that leave too many negative and dumb post's. I wish you could start an "21 and over" message board. Matt, I don’t read the comments as much as I used to.

It doesn't take more than a few bad apples to make this site and Mets fans in general, seem distasteful. Life is short people - try to enjoy it and enjoy others. Gracias.

How many games did he miss? And he's out of shape cardio-wise??? I'll buy that he asked out of the lineup, but I highly doubt it was for cardiovascular reasons. If memory serves, I think Matt made a comment about Church looking glassy-eyed after the home run his first game back. If he's not 100%, don't keep running him out there. I would rather have the guy healthy for the second half of the season then have him play now and spend the dog days of summer sipping soup through a straw and trying to remember how to ties his shoes.

You can make it a club, with merit badges and a newsletter and everything. That way, the people left over who get the fact that you can be a fan of a team while still being critical of its actions can have actual discussions. You do a great job, but the reason this site has been successful and you have your SNY gig is because Mets fans are passionate about the team and want to express their viewpoints despite the fact that they may not coincide with the Mets brass.
