So sit back and enjoy the show

As the Mets take first place!

I went with states because I thought we had done that once before, but couldn't prove it!



But yeah, let's do all of the categories that Edgy suggested. I'm especially eager to see how the Heinz thing plays out. Why leave anything on the table? If history is a guide, it may be another eight or ten years before we get to do this again.

We last did states to count down to the end of the Trump administration.

The Mets are on fire and they're not slowing down

The Nationals are in their way, but they'll soon be stepping down

The Mets have proven they're the team to beat

And when they clinch the East, it will be sweet



The fans have been behind them all season long

And they'll be there to cheer them on when they win it all

It's been a long time coming, but this team is ready

They have the talent, the drive, and the will to succeed



This is their year, there's no doubt about it

They'll make some noise in the playoffs, you just wait and see

The Mets are destined for greatness, and soon they'll be crowned



The kings of the NL East!

Admittedly, it's not quite yet looking like history's best week on the radio.

Don't worry, I'm not planning on continuing alcohol, or Star Wars actor references…though now that I think of it, there is one specific reference I can use a while from now, hopefully, complete with classic lines of dialogue from the original movie…

Why is Wyoming The Equality State?



Though lovingly referred to as the “Cowboy State,” Wyoming's true nickname is the “Equality State.” And for good reason. On December 10, 1869, Wyoming passed the first unconditional law in the U.S. permanently guaranteeing women their inherent right to vote and hold office.

With Philly (x3), Atlanta (x4) and Philly (x4) again (followed by the Yanx x2), these next few series have the potential to send this number plummeting rather quickly.

They also have the potential to make starting this countdown in early August look like a really bad idea.

I agree.

The Mets have a 7-game lead with 51 games to play. In 2007, they had the same size lead, but with only one third as many games remaining. Just sayin'.

The Mets playoff magic number is 39. If the Mets went 20-30 the Padres would have to 31-18 AND the Phillies would have to go 32-21.



the 2007 Mets went 25-25 and 0-7 against the Phillies.



If the Mets went 0-7 against the Phillies, and went say 20-23 otherwise, the Phillies would still have to go 25-21 AND the Padres would still have to win 31 more.

That's a more important countdown. I want the division, more out of wanting the franchise to finally get back-to-back division titles, but to erase last year's collapse, and 2007's, where two teams played in a Game 163 tie-breaker for the Wild Card that weren't the Mets, sewing up a postseason spot is a goal that should be watched with the same scrutiny.
