No Clincher tonight, see you on Friday...

[stevejrogers]

Well if the Braves win the night cap, Mets win tonight and the Braves win tomorow, the Mets won't have to do a damned thing

I'm sorry, I WANT AN ON FIELD CELEBRATION! Not in an airport in Pittsburgh, PA!

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

I'll take the division whenever it comes - off day or not.

It's bad karma to wish against things that ultimately benefit the Mets.

I'll meet you all at the airport tomorrow.

I'm not wishing, I'm just saying thats what I prefer.

I like knowing the lineage of Joe Torre and Chico Walker being future Mets after grounding out in the respective 69 and 86 clincher. I liked hoping that we could sign Lance Parrish one day to keep that "lineage" going after 1988

You know, I can get a cheap flight out of Philly....

Phillies have a 5-2 lead in the 7th of game 2.

Good. The more I see the Marlins the more I want the Phillies to win the WC.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

I still prefer San Diego.

I'd rather not see another NL East team as the Wild Card! 1999 is the only time the NL Wildcard winner did not manage to make it to the World Series! Granted they did lose to the NL East winner in the NLCS, but man did they put up a FIGHT!

I'd prefer games in our timezone.

I don't think it's going to matter.

The NLDS road games will be on a weekend anyway. There won't be any 11 p.m. start times for the Mets.

You mean the times the Wild Card Winner has come from the East. 4 times out of 10 wild cards isn't exactly a large sample size.

I was going for the funny

Do we now have to thank the Phillies for taking two because the Mets won't clinch on an off day?
