Silver linings
Monday, October 1, 2007
Today’s Daily News has eleven separate articles on the Mets’ season-ending loss yesterday. So at least one good thing has come of the team’s incredible collapse — they’re finally getting some decent newspaper coverage.

No kidding. I wouldn’t be surprised at this point if you told me some well-heeled Yankees fan had hired a skywriter to plaster the news above the city.

Oh, I forgot– did you get an apology email?
Dear Mets Fan:
All of us at the Mets are bitterly disappointed in failing to achieve our collective goal of building upon last year’s success. We did not meet our organization’s expectations — or yours. Everyone at Shea feels the same range of emotions as you — our loyal fans — and we know we have let you down. We wanted to thank you for your record-breaking support of our team this year.
Equally important, Ownership will continue its commitment in providing the resources necessary to field a championship team. Omar will be meeting with Ownership shortly to present his plan on addressing our shortcomings so that we can achieve our goal of winning championships in 2008 and beyond.
You deserve better results.
Many thanks again for your record-breaking support.
Mets

Are you kidding? Where did they send this to? (No, I definitely didn’t get it!)

My dad forwarded it to me– it could have been sent to post-season ticketholders, or mlb.tv subscribers, or some other group that he falls into. I can’t decide if it’s sweet, or hilarious, or pathetic.
