The Mets Police

I'm laying off Seaver for a while because he showed up at the final game at Shea and played the role well.  Here's what he has to say about The Rays:

"[They are] very analogous (to the 69 Mets)," Seaver said. "Because of their pitching and defense, and defense up the middle, they're in every game. We were that way. It's a nice story, a great story -- young guys with talent who believe in themselves and have a strong manager."

I spent much of the summer admiring the Rays.   They were younger and sexier than my team and looked like they were going places.

Now that the World Series has come and the Rays are there I realize I just don't care.   I've watched zero pitches of the first two games.

Rays, it's me, not you.  I hope you win, but I won't be there for you.
