About Max »

I am a HUGE Met's fan from Long Island, not to mention a BIG fan of the History of Baseball. I can pretty much answer any Baseball question you may have and hope to one day work for one of the MLB teams. I just like to talk about baseball and that's why I write.

Was Brian Bruney right? Is K-Rod's postgame celebration too much?

Get in on the debate.

Hi Max,

It's Dom DiFucci from Dom D's Mets Fan Blog. I enjoyed some of your articles regarding the Ny Mets. I think having a Huge Mets Fan and Baseball History buff on the blog roster would be great... I would like to invite you to write for my blog... If interested email me a Dom_DiFucci@ddmetsfanblog.com.. Of course it is not a paid position, but can be in the future if the website gets hits and exposure.. We will be moving to MVN.com soon.... So the articles will be syndicated..

I hope to be hearing from you...

Thanks, DD
