I had to start drinking tonight.

[hrmjustin]

The Mets have driven me to drink. Well to be fair I never need an excuse but since i got one I will use it. Drinking Spaten.

1. Optimator?

[hrmjustin]

3. No but that is a great idea. Their regular Lager.

[Sekhmets Daughter]

2. Those Mets will do it to you!

[hrmjustin]

4. It is like a car wreck that you want to turn your head but you can't.

[Sekhmets Daughter]

5. Been like that forever it seems

I used to follow the Mets in the late 70s and early 80s

[hrmjustin]

6. I grew up on the 86 mets and in 2006 they came close.

Everything else has been just frustrating.

[Sekhmets Daughter]

7. I was over them before you became a fan then....

Actually, we moved to FL... Gary Carter was a neighbor of mine...coached my daughter's softball team as an assistant coach... If yiu know who he was...

[hrmjustin]

8. Yes I do.I am sorry to say he passed away last year.

[Sekhmets Daughter]

9. He was a good guy...

the entire family, lovely in fact.

10. *Points to avatar*

You think you have problems!

[hrmjustin]

13. I feel your pain.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

11. I can't imagine how that must feel.

[hack89]

12. As a Mariners fan I share your pain (and taste in beer)

fortunately I still have the Bruins for (hopefully) another month or two.

14. I barely drink...

I don't smoke, don't really have any of those vices...
But, lately, I've been thinking of toking...
I don't know why... Seriously, don't know why.

I am sure I won't... Just, don't know why I've been thinking about it.

[hrmjustin]

15. Well if you do it for the first time you will have a big reaction to it.

Just be careful.

[Xyzse]

16. Hence, I will most likely not.

Don't know how to score it, don't know much about it.

Just random thoughts. Like you know, the times one thinks about destructive tendencies but never actually do it.

[NightWatcher]

17. Sweep the Mets, sweep the Mets, the Marlins may just sweep the Mets

And that's downright shameful.

Go Fish!

[hrmjustin]

18. It was enough to make me drink.
