About Brendan »

Lets go mets. Since I have been a young child, all I can remember are Saturdays at Shea and talking Mets with my family. I feel a lot of Met fans emerged from the darkness during the 2006 season. I say this because in my school there is not one single die-hard met fan. Honestly, I don't know many besides my family and a few people I've met over the years. I feel there are not many true orange and blue fans out there. I joined bleacher reports so I could share my thoughts with some real Met fans. I also would love to learn some things I've never known before. Thats all. This should say that I live, die, and breathe Mets. Also, visit my site http://njnysports.blogspot.com/
