David's Bio

Dave is the epitome of a Mets Lifer. A fan since 1985, he bleeds orange and blue and has suffered through the ups and downs of being a Mets fan for the past 23 years.

He and fellow Mets Lifer, Bryan, created MetsLifer.com in 2007 as a way to move their daily Mets email conversations out into the public domain.

Former MLB player Eric Karros called my article into question on Colin Cowherd's ESPN Radio show yesterday.

He challenged me for a re-do: but here's my response.

I assure you, it's not just a ridiculous personal attack, but it shows that Karros was off-base with his statements.

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote The Year Too Early NFL All-Decade Team.

This is its baseball counterpart, The Half of a Year Too Early MLB All-Decade Team, and my 100th article here on Bleacher Report.

I wrote an article on the Mets injuries, Who do you think is to blame. By the way nice to see you back in the top 5.

Hey David,

Inspired by the 2008 Mariners season, in which they became the first team in history to lose 100 games with a $100 million payroll, I decided to go on a mission. I put together the most expensive team of under performers that I could come up with, with a goal of easily surpassing 100 million dollars. I'd appreciate it if you took a look, thanks!
