I could not believe how empty Shea was last night. Dead and empty. These are basically playoff games and nobody is at the stadium and those that are are sleeping. I heard in Philly the fans were standing all game going nuts. Shea is dead and to me this is as disheartening as this team's collapse. And please dont bother telling me the "crowd" takes it's lead from the team. There aint no "crowd".

The McGimpy does most things upside down: eats, sleeps (an average of 23 hours per day), mates, and gives birth. Because of the McGimpy's upside down life, many of the McGimpy's internal organs (liver, stomach, spleen, pancreas) are in different positions from other mammals. McGimpy sometimes lets out a cry or hissing sound.

During the rare times the McGimpy goes down to the ground (such as to change trees for food), it moves very slowly.

Green Must Go

Can they call a team meeting at Shea just as they are ready to implode it?

And Citifield needs more seats why?

right another correct decision by the Met Franchise. Not that I care to get into this nonsense again but the announced attendance figures are greater then Citifield's capacity on a nightly basis. The way Met fans are feeling now nobody would care if it sat 10,000 fans but once this misery passes.....

I was there last night. Simply pathetic was the game, the fans, the turn out. Only Pedro really deserved victory.

The minute i walked in the stadium, I felt the life drained out of me.

I was able to get a parking spot with EASE, at 6:45. I took me 7 minutes to get to the car at leave the parking lot. What a joke.

Does Vegas still need a team?

Kincade

Maybe everyone already had the foresight to know this team was going to let them down. I think we all did.

Chuck

Hey if you read everything here most of the fans have given up. That being said yesterday was a make up game. Lets see what happens tonight. I am going on Saturday.

I've been saying this for a decade: The Bets

Excuse me, but this team has been shitting the bed for a MONTH now in dramatic fashion.

What, exactly have the Mets given their fans to cheer for? What has the team given them except for disappointment and despair?

If this was a true pennant race and the team was fighting and clawing and losing AND WINNING back and forth, you bet your AZZ their would be a much different feel to the place and people would be there. But this is not the case this year. This is a debacle...the Titanic going down. There is no to and fro, no ups and downs. Its ALL down....RIGHT DOWN. How the HELL are people supposed to get excited about that?

And not for nothing...the 10,000 less seats thing? Im PSYCHED for that, becuase as far as Im concerned, the only people to be shut out are the WORST 10,000 fans. The no-teeth drunk loser *******s who sneak into the seats behind mine in the Mezz, yell "What up nig$a?" all night long, spill beer on me and put their feet up on the seat three inches from my ear. I hope they ALL get shut out. Go hang in the upper deck for a bit and then go down to the loge for a bit to see what I mean. As far as Im concerned, take the upper deck and all the lowlifes in it and pitch it right into Flushing Bay.

It's not a pennant race. It's a pennant die. You ever try to "will" a dead person back to life? It works in the movies. Sometimes.

This is what happens when you try to bring that dumb stoic Yankee demeanor over to the lively Mets. I hope they never make this mistake again.

RkFast

The "dumb stoic" thing works great.

When you......get this ****ing concept.....WIN ****ING GAMES

RkFast

And one more thing....this month notwithstanding, the Mets have played like crap at Shea all year long. I went to 30 games this year and the "excitement" factor at the park has been as low as its ever been. Watching GIDP after GIDP after backwards K over and over and over will do that.

Sorry.....I do NOT blame the fans here. Its incumbent on the TEAM to set the tone, NOT the other way around. the TEAM gives the fans the juice to get energized. Not some dumb "noise-o-meter", not some ridiculous Kevin James skit (that makes NO sense, BTW), DEFINITELY not "Sweet Caroline" (nice ripoff), and ABSOLUTELY NEVER "Erybodeee-clap-your-hands" (do we have to play THAT one EVERY inning?) BULLSHIT.

The TEAM sets the tone through their actions and their play. And the tone this team has set all year is "funeral."

Kincade

I don't blame the fans here either. It's 2007, the prices are insane, and people want a winning/at least entertaining ball club for their dollar. It costs me no less then...I'd say, 70 bucks to go to a game from north Jersey. I'm not blowing my money, and time sitting in traffic to watch a bunch of gutless losers. This isn't the romantic days of the Dodgers taking the train to the game with the fans, and going back to Flatbush to their houses. This is the day of amazingly over-paid babies. I at least want to see a team who WANTS to win. I'm not contributing that much money to these guys. No way. Last years team made me proud. This years....makes me want to break out the paper bag over the head.

Chuck

My new favorite fan.....

Rk you forget one thing when this new stadium comes along the prices will go up so much that regular fans like you will also be shut out and only corporations will be able to afford seats.

I do agree that the team has to set tone for fans. Just click back and forth between Phils and Met games and it is like night and day. Phils are playing well so fans are packing the stadium and screaming their heads off while Mets are playing like crap
