Your saddest moment or era as a Mets fan. Let it out. Talk it over. We need to heal.

My saddest NYM moment was coming up short in 1985. Since that wasn't an option, I'll take 2007.

Losing Seaver was the most devastating to me, no question about it. I was 14 - 'nuff said.
|
Johnny Dickshot Oct 01 2007 09:56 AM |
Seaver, then 85.
|
HahnSolo Oct 01 2007 09:59 AM |
I should point out I was a little too young to fully appreciate the ramifications of the Seaver trade, or I'm sure it would be up there.

This is something I don't want to rank.

Everything on that list before 1999 was before my time as a fan, gotta go with 2007 although sad in not the word I would use(even though I think I did use it),pissed, hurt and cheated are words I would use.

'88 for me.

i'd've included yadier fucking molina and subsequently voted for him.

The Seaver trade was devestating for many reasons. In fact, it almost can't compare to the other things, which happened on the field.

And since I'm venting...

Last year was our year. We definitely were better last year.

Edgy DC Oct 01 2007 12:09 PM |
I'm still disapointed at how 1999 is hung on Rogers.
|
Benjamin Grimm Oct 01 2007 01:16 PM |
Yeah, that really doesn't make sense. I've even heard (or read) some saying that Rogers was "cowardly" to issue that walk.
|
Edgy DC Oct 01 2007 01:22 PM |
I'm not keen on hanging 2000 on Benitez also.
|
Nymr83 Oct 01 2007 01:22 PM |
kenny fucking rogers wins hands down for me.... throw the fucking ball over the fucking plate you fucking piece of shit... i don't care if he hits it 500 feet, it beats ending the season on ball 4.
|
Edgy DC Oct 01 2007 01:24 PM |
You do so care if he hits it 500 feet.
|
Benjamin Grimm Oct 01 2007 01:30 PM |
That was a miserable inning. I'm sure Rogers wasn't trying to not give up a grand slam. A grand slam is no more damaging than a walk in that situation. He had to be trying for a ground ball or a strikeout. He failed, but that doesn't make him a coward or a fool. He was put into a very tough situation when he was called on to issue two intentional walks. (Was Brian Jordan with two on that much scarier than Andruw Jones with the bases loaded? Can we petition to undo that second intentional walk somehow? If Larry Craig can try to withdraw his guilty plea, can we try to withdraw an intentional walk?)
|
Edgy DC Oct 01 2007 01:32 PM |
i also call bullshit on that second intentional walk.
|
Zvon Oct 01 2007 02:21 PM |
You would think it would be Seaver, cause it was the only thing that made me turn my back on the team for awhile.
|
Benjamin Grimm Oct 01 2007 02:26 PM |
|
Well, now wouldn't THAT have been bizarre? I was watching that game with Greg Goossen, and I was too scared to go outside and howl.

Well, you have to take into consideration that I'm a werewolf when I'm not fighting crime.

Kid Carsey Oct 01 2007 04:58 PM |
Out of the choices, I took 2007, just to vote and participate.

My saddest Mets moment was the 2000 WS when Jay Payton's throw hit Jorge Posada and bounced away along with any remaining hope.
|
Johnny Dickshot Oct 01 2007 05:22 PM |
Was that when Payton threw so hard he flipped over? That was a sad moment.
|
cooby Oct 01 2007 05:54 PM |
Yep. The poor guy practically turned himself inside out making that throw and got charged with an error, thought I guess that's what the rules say.
