I'm bubbly. But I'll also miss being a fan of a team that hadn't had a no-hitter in its 50 years of existence. Just like I rooted for the Tigers to play better than .250 ball a few years ago.

Johan is Bionic.

[Centerfield]

Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow.

My family watched it all unfold together too. My brother, who oddly enough is in St. Louis, joined us via text message.

As soon as the last out was recorded my phone blew up. I'm telling you, baseball is wonderful.

Some part of me always suspected that when it finally happened the Mets would find a way to lose the game. I never thought it would be this great.

Incidental awesome thing, RA goes tomorrow and is a threat to make it back to back no nos.

[TransMonk]

I think Santana just proved why he's the ace.

I couldn't be happier for him.

Alls I know is I did not wanna see Molina come to the plate in the 9th. He was on deck. If he ruined it you might have been reading about me in the news tomorrow as I would have destroyed everything in sight.

SuckMahBallsMolina!

[G-Fafif]

I continue to not believe this actually happened.

[metirish]

I know it might be a small thing as he has been in the game for years but listening to Terry and his emotion but also his sense of what was happening and it's place in Mets history, glad it was him.

No pressure on your next blog post, you have to have envisioned this day?

[MFS62]

Just got home from work.
Missed it.
But I'm gonna' cheat and cross it off my bucket list anyhow, because I heard Howie's call.

So cool, I can't believe it. Love Johan so glad for him after all the hard work to get back.

[TransMonk]

I missed it as well. I was at a bar after a party and they broke in and out of the Brewer game to show the last four outs.

At first I was pissed I has missed the whole game...but how can I stay pissed about something like this?

Johan just gave a locker room speech......damn,great night all around

[metsmarathon]

that really was a great takedown on the guy who ran onto the field.

[Elster88]

Damn I didn't see the locker room speech I'll have to watch that online somewhere. His on-the-field interview was fantastic.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Fresh-off-the-DL Thole is giving an interview on SNY, and he's luckiest-man-in-the-room giddy right now. It's friggin' adorable.

It's good to have you back, my friend

[Centerfield]

I can't believe how every ball in the 7-8-9 inning seemed destined to fall in.

Don't remember being this jumpy in a game in a long time.

After how it's been the past few years, especially last year, I feel like there have been a few moments in 2012 that made me think "Oh right, that's why I watch baseball."

I feel so good I feel like I could visit Eastern Europe again.

Well lets see, there's the NL MVP thing...
No Met has hit 4 homers in a game, but that's even rarer than a perfect game...which is also something you COULD latch on to...
