Jones Is Chipper About The Mets

This time of year brings out many mind boggling stories. There is one in particular that has caught the attention of the fan base of the New York Mets that is extra disturbing. The Mets have a new fan. Larry Jones. You may have heard of him. He goes by the name Chipper. That is correct, Chipper Jones likes the Mets this year.

The same Chipper Jones who had repeatedly bashed the Mets in years past and repeatedly slammed their new home last season. Does anyone else find this as disgusting as I do? I'm sure he was just trying to pay the team a compliment. I'm sure, especially now that his best friend, Jeff Francoeur is a Met, he wants to be on their good side.

This is an impossibility. He can never be on their good side. At least not in the minds of the collective fan base. He can not be allowed to be in the good graces of that fan base or the team, for that matter, if the team cares about their fans. This is a man that has hurt the Mets and their fans for many years in all kinds of ways.

How many big hits has he had against this team in this city? Too many. Now he wants to pay them a compliment. I completely understand the attempt. I can understand someone giving their main competition a compliment and scouting them at the same time. I can even understand him not wanting to create further bad blood now that he has friends in that organization.

What I can't understand is why he feels the need to even talk about the Mets in the first place? He is solely more responsible for many tears and yelled curses in Queens over the past several years, than any other player.

We could mention any Phillies player or Marlins player. We can even talk about the Yankees. Let's not though, I really don't want to remember the pain right now. I'd rather draw a bath and light some candles before I do that, just so I get in the mood.

Chipper Jones is a major reason that the Mets haven't had as many playoff appearances as they should have. He is also a major reason that the Mets have not gone as deep into the playoffs as possible. In a word, he is the devil. The devil loves the Mets chances. We are officially entering the Armageddon. The Mets and Braves are friendly, the world is coming to an end. Where's chicken little when you need him?
