Team Breakdown 17/30: New York Mets




(Mr. Met could be one of the best mascots in sports
The Mets have always played second fiddle to the Yankees and in recent years have been in the charity game of blowing a perfectly good season in the last month of the season (Sorry Jon Stewart). The Mets have always relied on charity when it comes to the World Series. Since they joined the league in 1962 the Mets rallied as the Amazin' Mets to win it all in 1969 and of course have Bill Buckner to thank for their 1986 World Series. They do however have a great mascot, who can not only fire up a crowd, but can also act.
Team breakdown
WS Wins: 2 (69,86)
Favorite Moment: The Mets are founded in 1962 thus lowering the number of Yankee fans.
Least Favorite: The same Mets lose more fans than ever after a disaterous W.S. in 2000 against the Yankees.
Franchise Player: David Wright? Doc Gooden? Cleon Jones?
Forgot he played:Matt Lawton
Never Knew:Willie Mays

  2. Hi husband! I'm reading your blog! =)

    Also, Willie Mays played for the Mets? And who thinks Mr. Met is a good mascot? He's just like Mr. Redlegs without the creepy mustachio!
