The Mets are going through one of their worst stretches in recent memory, from the injuries to the absolutely unwatchable offense (scoreless in last 22 innings), it seems only fitting Met fans are reminded of past great Met teams.
On the cover of this week's Sports Illustrated, the 10th 'Where are they now?' edition, features the '69 Miracle Mets with Nolan Ryan and Tom Seaver on the cover.
That team was might have been the best underdog franchise to win a professional championship, and is most likely the source of when many people from NYC and North Jersey area became Metropolitan fans.
Back to reality.
New York Daily News:
"I just think we stink right now, we're just not very good. When you don't pitch, you don't hit, you don't play defense, you're not going to win very many games. We're not playing very good baseball. ... I don't think anybody's having very much fun right now." - David Wright
