Mets - A Primer


I've been here since early 70's. Very little has turned around. Let's see:
  • 1973 - somehow made the WS. Lost
  • 1974-1983 - oh boy. Terrible. We traded Tom Seaver in 1977. That should tell you all.
  • 1983-1985 - The beginning of a great time. Doc and Darryl. Got Hernandez and Carter.
  • 1986 - The Bad Guys Won. Yes.
  • 1987-1988 - thought we'd be there at least one more time. We weren't.
  • 1989-1992 - Everybody leaves. Once again horrific.
  • 1993-1997 - I remember Vince Coleman and Generation K. Nothing else. It was the bottom of the barrel.
  • 1998 - Mike Piazza. I can be proud again.
  • 1999 - team looked like something
  • 2000 - went to WS. Lost to Yankees. Had a good season.
  • 2001 - 9/11 and Mike Piazza's HR!
  • 2002-2005 - mid-pack in NL East. Braves kept kicking our ass. I hate Chipper Jones. And Armando Benitez.
  • 2006 - great season. Too bad Beltran can't hit a curve.
  • 2007-2008  - injuries decimate us all.
  • 2009-2012 - bad. Progressively getting worse.
  • 2013 - might rival 1993.
