Was Thinking...If The New York Mets Had The Same Run The Phillies Are Having

SS

Stray thought I had.

If the 2007 Mets had trailed the Phillies by 7 with 17 to go, and somehow won the division - how much would that team and "the core" be beloved by the fans?

If that same group pulled off a similar feat in 2008, and then won the World Series - how much would THAT team and "the core" be beloved by the fans.   They would be our gamers, our heroes.   Gutsy, gritty, a blue collar team.  Stories about how Willie learned from Torre never to give up.  Closing out Shea with a ring!

If the 2009 World Champion Mets had a 9 game lead over the choking Phillies and were just being chased by the Braves and Marlins, how much would we love this team?

This would be the great run in franchise history.  

I hope the Phillies fans appreciate what they have.
