Love that picture…. and it has nothing to do with the story so it’s perfect.

Remember Yolanda…one space after a period… one space. Just cause I’m on a team doesn’t mean I can’t still blog RIGHT?

I can’t believe that I somehow realized that I could still log into this blog! I forgot about it! So much has happened in the past few months. But who cares about all that stuff in the past. It’s old news now!

Today we talk about, why the New York Mets are going to win the Paper cup.

Me. The End!

Seriously though, why are the Mets a suprise team to win the paper cup?

Number 1: They have already faced adversity together. With the sadness of the whole Dirk McGriddle (Sorry McDonalds) flapjack situation the Mets have had to weather the storm of annoyance. I mean, seriously no one hated the Mets they just found that Dirk guy to be EXTREMELY annoying. So, they didn’t really have to band together against anything.

Number 2: Number 1: The clubhouse is a hodge podge of people all over the world. It’s a melting pot of different backgrounds, genders and races. ITS A TRUE NEW YORK CITY LOCKER ROOM! Then again, I don’t think anyone has ever cared about that. So it’s almost like that doesn’t matter either. Hmm…

Number 3: Number 1: The scouting is top notch! They have gone together and looked at different games and different stats to get scouting on ALL of the teams they face. Including all the pitchers. In game they will be updating the scouting to be in real time! Which, actually every single team besides the Orioles did last year, and every other year. So, that’s not a leg up on anyone either.

Number 4: Number 1: Caleb Athen. No, Nevermind

Number 5: Number 1: No more Johnny Dickshot. With the surprise retirement of Dickshot the Mets have had to regroup of losing one of their own and try and overcome not having that extra player on the team. Though last year the Pirates and the Cardinals had to do the same, so that’s no different since he quit on them too.

Number 6: Number 1: I’ve got nothing. The Mets have the same exact chances as every other team to win the Paper Cup. Let’s be real. No team has an advantage over any other team unless their scouting is better. That’s it. So….
