Last night I floated this five questions idea, and it really caught on. I'll post a few today throughout the day in between the other items. If you're new to the concept you'll catch on quickly. First up is from yvaithe.
1. When did you start following the Mets?
My earliest remembrance is Pat Zachary and Craig Swan. I also remember the return of Seaver. I was born in '75
2. What is your favorite Mets memory?
Obviously the '86 season. I practically watched every game that season.
3. What is your worst Mets memory or experience?
To be honest, I hated the 2009 season. For me, with the expectations going into the new season, new stadium, bullpen fixed. I honestly thought they would at least finally make the playoffs after the 2006 season. The way the '99 NLCS ended is up there along with the called strike three Beltran took. Being a Mets fan is all about disappointment I guess
4. If you could change one off-field thing about the franchise what would it be?
Omar=GONE, Jerry=GONE, I would have rehired Bobby V and anyone off the street would be better than the disaster that is Omar
5. If you owned the team starting tomorrow, what is the first thing you would change?
I would give the team a sense of Identity. I would reverse EVERY single decision the Wilpons have made with regards to the uni's and colors. I would return the NY to the Mets logo, I would have ONLY blue caps and no black anywhere. If there need to be a 3rd jersey, then I'd have something akin to the '83 all blue. I'd also start Metsifying Citi Field.
