Wow what a response to the Five Questions For An Average Mets Fan. As I mentioned yesterday, I'll post a few a day and get to everyone (it's a long offseason!) but I want to make sure they are interspersed with other items throughout the day. Feel encouraged to send your answers to shannon@metspolice.com Thanks to everyone who has emailed yet and if I haven't yet written back, I will.
Batting leadoff...here's Metsfan73.
1. When did you start following the Mets?
1973. Have vague memory of the season and
1973 WS which they lost to Oakland in 7
games.
2. What is your favorite Mets memory?
1986 post season. Game 6 against Astros, Games 6 & 7 in '86 Series.
3. What is your worst Mets memory or experience?
Too many to count, but losing the NLCS in
'88 to the Dodgers was painful.
4. If you could change one off-field thing about the franchise what would it be?
Wilpon's sell the team. Liked Doubleday
better. He would do whatever it took to
make the team better. If he wasn't in
control in 1998, Piazza wouldn't have been
a Met. Wilpon didn't want Piazza.
5. If you owned the team starting tomorrow, what is the first thing you would change?
Would bend over backwards to celebrate the
history of this club. Not just Tom Seaver,
Mike Piazza, Jerry Koosman, etc., but the
Marv Throneberry's and Choo-Choo Coleman's
of the world. Embrace the history, good and
bad. They both work together to make the
Mets what they are.
