They're Only Human


The Mets, that is. Carlos Zambrano, the Cubs pitcher last night, may not be. But we now know that Johnny Maine is. We already knew that Scott Schoenweis was.

Last night, while killing time on the elliptical at the gym, I was watching the Nats v. Braves. I root for the Nats, especially against the Braves. But the poor Nats. Inept pitching, lame fielding. I felt bad, especially since I have seen them play better. They did beat the Braves on Monday, after all.

This got me thinking about the lean days of the Mets and how hard it is to be a fan and continually have your heart broken. It's like having the same man let you down again and again. But after all, they are just human.
