I have no problem with idiotic fan partisanship. Rooting for a team is supposed to be fun.

Exactly. Save the whining and complaining for when/if your team is eliminated (or the offseason.)

No one is whining or complaining. Just trying to keep Met fans from looking stupid.

Funny, my whining, complaining, bitching and mockery didn't seem to be warmly appreciated during the off-season or after E-date either. I guess no time is really just right for that sort of negative waves, Moriarty. CRAP FROM THE PAST!!

So Nymr likes chanting MVP....is anything else better when the Mets are 8-1?

Ironically enough, idiotic fan partisanship often makes things worse Chanting MVP could, for example, encourage Wright to think he's got to hit everything out of the park. I think he's got his shit too far together for that to happen, but it could easily throw himj off his game as much as it could encourage him. More seriously, if the Marlins offered Willis and Cabrera for Wright this afternoon, and the Mets hesitated long enough to cause the Marlins to trade them elsewhere because they needed time to gauge the degree of fan partisan loyalty to young #5, well, that would IMO be ruinous to the Mets' chances of putting together a contending team. But maybe you're already persuaded that the Mets are this year's World Series champs and need do nothing but accept their post-season awards. See you tomorrow morning.

Paying $2 for tickets last night was alot better with a win, though it was pretty cool no matter what. Talking to Yankee Fans (if you must) is much better when the Mets are 8-1.

Having my daughter's friend come to the house and, when he sees me, having him say, "May I ask you a question? What team has the best record in baseball?"

-being down 6 runs is more fun (well, less painful) when the Mets are 8-1.

Overhearing two teenagers in Penn Station (perhaps inspired by the sight of my smart Mets ensemble of 2000 warmup pullover and 2006 spankin' new blue/black cap) is more fun even at 8-2:
