We're all just fans, no better, no worse than each other. You just happen to be rooting for a winning team this year -- the skills of the players on our teams are in no way a reflection of the types of fans we are. You have nothing to do with your team's sucess (or lack thereof) So -- enjoy it while it lasts, because it won't. :-) Message to the Phillies fans: news flash!

He doesn't even look close to comfortable in left field so his future is at 1B. I like his chances of learning that position as a below average 3B than 2B. Especially when NO ONE is gonna take Castillo and I think the Mets are better off playing him. And I have a job, phills, so while you're refreshing this page looking for my response I don't have quite the same amount of time to do that. But keep checking I'll get back at you scumbag Perhaps I should have included the premise that Dan Murphy, from what I’ve read, was a below average 3rd baseman.

And I certainly cannot get mad at Phillies fans for coming to Mets Blog to rub it in. I cannot believe how many of my fellow Mets fans jumped over to Beer Leaguer after the Santana signing and bragged how we were gonna beat them this year. Now maybe everyone will learn to shut-up until we actually win something. And if the Mets were in the WS, Beer Leaguer would be full of Mets fans today. Anyway....GO RAYS!!! Geez...that sounds weird.
