Did WFAN Curse the Mets?

More on the WFAN curse I tweeted last weekend. (The Mets haven’t won the World Series since WFAN has been in Queens. Now that they’re in Manhattan…good sign for 2010?).

WFAN’s first broadcast in Queens was July 1st, 1987. The Mets were the defending World Champions. The Mets went 17-30 from that point for the rest of the season, finishing in second place. The Mets have been back to the World Series just once in that time.

Now that WFAN’s studios have moved to Manhattan, a location the Mets haven’t played in in 45 years, maybe 2010 is the year for the Mets to claim their third championship.

And unlike the Yankees, who are playing in five hours, if the Mets make the playoffs they will sell every ticket.
