Orange and Blue Nightmare
When it rains its pours, and right now absolutely nothing can go right. I noted how the Mets won as a team twice over the weekend at Yankee Stadium, well they're losing big time as a team as well.
Time and time again I've had to hear from the players, the manager, the front office, whoever, that 2007 is in the past, it's behind everyone. Well if it's in the past, then why the hell is this team performing the exact same way? If they're all over the collapse, why are they continuing to collapse? I'm hearing the same post-game comments whether it's win or loss for this team and I'm tired of it. I thought that maybe today they would come out and find a way to take the Braves down, rally around their manager who is clearly on the hot seat, but of course that's not the case. I was crazy for thinking it would be.
I mean think about it, what gives any fan any reason to believe this team will turn it around into consistency. If I woke up tomorrow morning and heard Willie Randolph was fired, I would not be surprised. I'm not saying that's the right thing to do or that's gonna change anything, but I feel its just been such a downward spiral of late.
And I don't wanna hear anything about it being the Braves and it being in Turner Field, this team has looked like this against just about everyone at some point in time, even the Pirates earlier this year. I'm sure all fans feel the way I do, as this is an extremely frustrating situation.
This team, this organization, has to take a good, long look at themselves in the mirror. It's time to go out and perform.
I can't believe it, but here we are, May 21, and the Mets are 22-22.
