They're the same thing.

People are way too critical. I think the stadium is awesome. Shea was an absolute dump in terms of the tight seating, tight corridors, lack of concessions & bathrooms. Citifield is a palace compared to that place. Give people time to get use to it.

I am not complaining as I only paid $19 per game on avg. for my 15 games. Rather than complain, I will simply get better seats next year. The overall ballpark is beautiful and I am looking forward to the rest of the games I'm attending this year.

It like he could care less about the team that he owns, in terms of their place in history.

BTW, people complain that we have the third highest payrol and should be steamrolling teams, do yourself a favor and look at the teams with the 1st & 2nd payroll...they're not faring much better early on.

How quickly everyone forgets that we didn't get over .500 for good until July 7 last year - a full 89 gams in. Baseball is a long season with many ups and downs. We need to get a little more aggressive on the bases.

We actually have favorable pitching match-ups for this series. __ Fri, 17 Apr 2009 12:41:43 +0000 http://www.metsblog.com/2009/04/16/post-game-padres-6-mets-5-2/#IDComment19102767 http://www.metsblog.com/2009/04/16/post-game-padres-6-mets-5-2/#IDComment19053898 Can we PLEASE stop it with the "this team has no fire comments" already. You really sound silly when you throw a post up like that. Fire does not win baseball games. Execution of basic fundamentals on a regular basis usually translates into winning consistently. Am I upset with Maine's start tonight, you bet I am, but I'm more upset that he screwed up 2 sacrifice bunts. If he gets one down maybe Jug-head's HR in the 8th ties the game instead of leaving us still behind 1 run.

They closed the park & ride lot this morning and I was forced to park on the street......All this so he could maximize his $18 per parking spot profits. Totallt ridiculous.

Seff is at the HSS getting a physical as we speak. Fri, 3 Apr 2009 17:31:04 +0000 http://www.metsblog.com/2009/04/03/nyp-mets-close-to-signing-gary-sheffield/#IDComment18096622
