Who will save us from our drought?

Let’s play a little game called “Guess what I’ve been up to the last two weeks.” Here’s a couple of choices for you…

1. Absolutely nothing
2. Contemplating complex philosophical questions like the meaning of life
3. Curling into the fetal position and crying myself to sleep every night because of law school exams
4. Curling into the fetal position and crying myself to sleep every night because Philadelphia was celebrating 100 seasons of ineptitude

I guess #3 and #4 encapsulate it best. And then today, as I continued to cry and babble incoherently about Shawn Bradley, Joe Carter and Ronde Barber, I realized, “Hey, Kev, you’ve got a blog. You’ve got something to live for. Get up and write something.”

Monthly Monday MLB Report Card: New York Mets

On the first Monday of each month we roll out our Monthly MLB Report Card (forever to be known as MMLBRC) for the Mets, Phillies and Yankees. We’ll check in early each week from here on out with short posts to quickly take the pulse of each team, but think of the MMLBRC as an in depth physical (anal probing not included). Truthfully, a month is probably too small of a sample size to make overarching claims like we will attempt to, but dammit, you want content! So rather than write well-reasoned quarterly updates, we’ll make rash decisions based on far too little data. Last, but not least: The Amazins. Enjoy!

*Note: we know, today’s Tuesday and not Monday. But we’ve been a little busy over the past few weeks, so deal with it.
