Crocodile Tears

The only tears that came from last night's 3-2 win by the Nats is that the new stadium is finally open. While I am part of a group of taxpayers that is financing 94 percent of a stadium in a city that doesn't have functioning public schools and potholes that threaten my daily commute, I am not bitching. No more institutional food, no more seats with posts in the way. Now that's progress.

And hey, now the Mets are a half game up on the Braves...

The Bitch Is Back

Yes, yes, I realize it has been too long. Too many months where you have been starved of Mets news through the eyes of a lunatic woman who only marginally knows about baseball. But the good news is, I am back!

I did not write during Hot Stove season, only because a gal needs a break. Last season was so... well, you know. I just needed to step away. But I am bright eyed and bushy tailed, ready for a fantastic season. And right now super hot on Johnny Maine, who has has a super duper spring training, keeping his ERA under 2.  While in end of last year was not easy for anyone, it was his first full season pitching in regular rotation with the Mets and that experience will take him far this year. Keep your eye on him, he just may be our Obama (or at least that is what I am telling all the dudes who are looking for picks for their fantasy teams).
