About William Henry »

I have lived in Queens, NYC for my entire life. I grew up in Flushing and as a kid, sat in a car with my father on 126th Street in Flushing and watch the workers build Shea Stadium. My first Mets game was at the Polo Grounds.

I attend over 100 sporting events a year. I have a mini plan with the Mets, I'm a seasons ticket holder for the NJ Nets, I have a half season plan with the Knicks and I usually have a hockey plan with one of the NY area teams, though I prefer driving to Boston to see the Bruins. I also go on numerous road trips each year. When I'm not at a game, I'm in front of my TV watching one.

Pele
Pele or Maradona?

Unitas...In other words, I don't love football and I don't recognize the existence of soccer.
Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

Not big on College sports (there's only 168 hours in a week), but the Big 10 has the best fight songs!

Hey,

The biggest week of games to date this season begins for the Mets with Six games against the Phillies and the Yankees, its a real test for a team that has dealt with quite a bit during this early part of the season. With this I'm presenting another version of my Top Five with the subject centering around how the Mets can be successful this week against the Phils and Yanks. I hope you enjoy and thanks in advance.
