One Greg Prince has "Faith and Fear in Flushing." The other Greg Prince has “Faith and Doubt as Partners in Mormon History.”

Next time the guys scheduled to speak you should step in and wax poetic about the Mets.

This stuff of course is common when you have a common name.

I have a slew of medical practices in an around the U.S. But I am most known for my seat in Congress, and then the allegations of campaign fraud that led to me wearing an ankle bracelet.

How does doubt differ from and relate to fear?

Sure, but the coincidences of the 'Faith and _____' blogs is pretty freaky even if they deal with two totally different topics; the one being about religion, hope, saints, sinners, spiritual well-being and potential rebirth, and the other with the Mormon church.

Have we had any Mormon Mets?

 Doubt is the path to the Dark Side. Doubt leads to fear. Fear leads to insecurity. Insecurity leads to a Jeter jersey, spray tan and a tribal tattoo.

In other coincidences, David Wright is quite the athlete.

Here's a coincidence - As most of you know, my dad was a firefighter for 40 years here in my home town, and was assistant chief when he retired. There is a fire chief in Charleston, MA with the exact same name. No relation that we know of.

Since our roots are there, I'd say that's a little strong.

Willets is referring to a specific instance where he got banned like an untested diet pill for using Paulie Cee's full name. Mormon Mets: Matt Lindstrom John Buck McKay Christensen Shawn Testes Kyle F. Farnsworth Jeff Kent

I knew Farnsworth, didn't know (or at least

Lindstrom I knew. He missed valuable development time knocking on doors out in Belgium or wherever.

And, don't exaggerate, it was only 105 -- although that was a legit 105, none of this "feels like it" shit that local weather forecasts trumpet so that their degree of misery will out-do that of the other stations.

The best David Wright coincidence though is this:  From a Fuji Film Contest winners section of a hard bound cover magazine from Winter of 1986-1987 called "1986 A Fan-Tastic Season" produced for the Mets by Image Lasting Media, which qualifies as a decent gem for the Mets Stuff In The Trunk thread now that I think of it.

I know George Theodore is NOT a Mormon because radio talkie Sid Rosenberg, upon discovering during an interview that GT was from Utah, got it into his head that asking him about his religion was somehow an appropriate question.

Second baseman. Kind of a douche. Traded for Carlos Baerga, then lost on Survivor.

Lol, I know who Kent is! Didn't know he was a mormon.
