    I don't go to those dark places anymore. It's taken a while but I am able to enjoy the Mets-related highs without going to the depths of despair from the lows. I really enjoyed the whole season with this team and had a blast during the postseason. Went to three games - one each against the Dodgers, Cubs and Royals - went 1-2 but had a great time at all 3. Really pleased at the prospect of a good 3-5 year roll for the Mets.

I was just gonna comment on that...wow, ugly. Is that where MLB is eventually heading? I know a few years back Al Leiter was a big proponent of ads on the unis

    Defense, defense, defense. THAT was the story of this Series for me. They make the plays they should have made, they win the whole thing last night. I would really like to think that these Mets are beginning a very successful 5 year roll.

    Dud the Mets whine this much when Kent broke Tejada's leg? I don't think so. And Syndegaard's pitch didn't even hit him.

    The New York Times wrote: The Royals also expressed their displeasure with Syndergaard by refusing to credit him with a well-pitched game. He allowed three runs and seven hits while striking out six in six innings. Moustakas said Syndergaard had simply been “O.K.,” before adding that the rookie right-hander was “pretty good.” Hosmer added that if Syndergaard had not had the benefit of an offensive outburst by the Mets, he most likely would have taken a loss. “We did a good job of getting to him, but his offense did a good job of bailing him out,” Hosmer said. “They found some momentum to pick him up there in the late innings.” Yeah, they did a 'good job of getting to him' while he was retiring 12 of them in a row. Whiny bitches. And Hey Moustakis - you kiss your mother with that mouth?

    Ok - so it has been established. I just be completely shitfaced for the Mets to win. Got it. Happy to oblige. Will do so moving forward.

    All I've gotten out of this thread is that I need to drink much more tonight. Not a problem, consider Game 3 won.

    I like Grimm's assessment. RE: Familia - On the bright side, that won't happen again. Liked what I saw from Duda. That debacle between Cespedes & Conforto in the first was ridonculous. Seriously, how does that happen in a WS game? These Royals are a pesky bunch and have scouted the Mets staff well but from what I saw, it looks like Mets pitchers know what to do and are capable of doing it. If deGrom is deGrominant tonight, the Royals are back on their heels and the Metropolitans are sitting pretty.

    I have this button, which I wear to 'BIG' games: I was searching for the image and pulled it from ebay where that particular one is listed for $85.00! I had no idea. Says its from 1968. News to me. I don't know how and where I got it. Just have always had it.

All I remember from 2000, for instance, is Clemens and the bat, and Benitez refusing to throw strikes to lefthanded batters. If this is really how you feel then why bother? Be a fan!! Enjoy it all!! the tension! The drama!! THIS is what its all about! Bask in it!

    To be clear, the Mets lost both of those Game 1's. Whatever we were doing for those - do NOT do that. No sexy time for you dgw...

    In 1986, I had committed to go to a sorority formal previous to Mets getting to the World Series. It just so happened that the formal fell on the same night as Game 1. I missed the whole game. In 2000, I had to go to my future brother-in-law's bachelor party on the evening of Game 1. We had dinner in a fancy restaurant. No TVs. Later on, while there were more TVs and more interest in watching the game at that affair, it was still not an optimal viewing situation and I missed the meat of the game. Tonight - I will be parked in front of my TV from the first pitch. Lets Go Mets!

Yeah, you'll lose, but if you didn't know the answer you're going to lose anyway and we'll all get a good laugh out of it - and isn't that the most important thing? Should monkeys ever fly out of my ass and I get a spot on 'Jeopardy', I will absolutely do this.
