Rob's Bio

I'm a 21 year old student at the University of Maryland. I've been a loyal fan of the Mets through good times and bad and unfortunately mostly bad. Fortunately I have always said, "In order to truly feel a victory, you must first be crushed in defeat." Eventually that victory will come.

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.

Its time to finally come clean, Im not a Yankee fan, I only play one on TV and in reality Im a Die Hard Mets fan who is very frustrated with everything surrounding this franchise right now. Then again, its ok cause they're BATTLING every night, right? Wrong and below is my article on the reasons why. Thanks in advance.

Hey Rob,

Melky Cabrera hit a walk-off home run last night for the Yankees, but the score and the win paled in comparison to Brett Gardner’s remarkable story. Read how he brought a smile and hope to a sick little girl in NYC.

Thanks for becoming a fan.

Glad you thought my last article was a solid read.

I will try to cover some baseball this year. And of course the NFL Draft is coming up.

Have a good one.
