It got one of my votes, because of how happy I was when they realized he sucked. (The headline was clever, too.)

3-FOR-ALL still has that damned Montefiore-Einstein/Yankee banner ad that's sized wrong. Somebody has to take the stick there.

I think that white space is where a bar code would be on the printed edition.

Management(manager and pitching coach and maybe the analytics people). He was kept out of high leverage situations after that. IMO, that was a good decision.

I would discourage rooting for Mets to fail in order to convince the team they are bad.

An alternative — rooting for Mets to prosper in order to enjoy victories — has more satisfaction without the side effect of shooting oneself in the foot.
