Hours after Johan Santana and the Mets ended a disappointing weekend series with a loss to the Nationals, I came across a rather disturbing article on ESPN.com, that really upset the hell out of me. The piece was written (and I use that word loosely) by Ian O’Connor, and to say that it was one of the most irresponsible articles I’ve ever read on ESPN about the Mets, might just be an...
Read MoreI always tell my friends who are Yankee’s fans, it’s easy to be a Yankee fan. Everything is handed to you.
