BlueClaws – A Great Night Out At The Jersey Shore

Lou Russo — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 09:49:58 +0000

I’m a big sports fan and I can tell you this. We’re very lucky to have the Lakewood BlueClaws in our backyard. As you know, I’m a huge Mets fan, but even on the best night, I’m not exactly in the mood to travel to Flushing, Queens, deal with parking and pay the ridiculous prices for [...]

Mets' David Wright Proposes To Girlfriend

It seems that David Wright is one of those rare guys who’s not afraid of committment. First, he signs a multi year contract with the Mets, seemingly making him a Met for life, and now, word is, he has made the really important committment. According to usatoday.com and other sources, the Mets third baseman and team leader [...]

Should this really come as a surprise anymore? Mets fan, who have every right to be in a booing mood lately, let Snooki have it at Citi Field last night. According to one report, the booing was so loud, no one could hear her trying to lead the “Let’s go Mets” chant. I’ve been a [...]

Is The Jersey Shore Turning Into A "Mets Town"? [POLL]

For years now, our area has clearly been a "Yankees Town". As a Mets fan, no one knows that better than I do, and with the successes of the Yankees, and the failures of the Mets, it's no real surprise. This weekend though, a Yankees fan friend of mine said he thought the tables were turning.

Yankees, Mets or Phillies? A map from “New Jersey the Movie” claims that the alledgence to your team is based a lot on location. Is this map accurate? Let’s count the “Yankees” portions of the map as “Yankees/Mets.” You’ll notice a thin dividing line between the two teams. Additionally, both seem to be equally represented. [...]

All Local Baseball Fans Should Be Rooting For Mariano Rivera

Lou Russo — Fri, 04 May 2012 12:07:13 +0000

I'm a Mets fan through and through. I'll admit that it's always more difficilt to handle a Mets loss on a day when the Yankees win. It 's just part of the rivalry. And the Yankees are always winning. It's a little annoying. But Mets fans aren't only about winning, or we wouldn't be Mets fans. This Mariano Rivera injury is different though. I want to put the rivalry aside and stand up next to all Yankees fans and root for a speedy recovery. Mariano deserves that.

Mets Are In 1st Place…I'll Enjoy It While I Can!

Lou Russo — Fri, 06 Apr 2012 10:24:54 +0000

Opening Day at CitiField resuted in a 1-0 Mets win over the Atlanta Braves. The Mets are in first place! I say that now because this will likely be the only time I'll be able to say it all season long. For all you Yankees and Phillies fans out there, let me have my day. You guys will have all season to be in or close to first place. I have today.
