I've been a lifelong Mets fan. I grew up just a few miles from Shea Stadium and have experienced all the ups and downs of the last 30 years of Mets baseball.
Now you can get involved via this podcast. I'll be recording posts that you can listen to in order to get my perspective on the 2006 Mets baseball season.

hi, i have been listening since episode 1. not too bad. good stuff for the commute, and a nice break from the fan. it is nice to have a fan perspective, a fella who cares about the team rather than a radio dude talking about them because the local market requires it. keep it up.
grassroots, fan-produced media, i like it.
Thanks for stopping by Martin. Definitely nothing fancy here. Just venting on the progress of the team in ‘06. And I’m glad to include the thoughts and comments of other fans in this space.
Cheers,
Rob
Awesome podcast! I’m a 20 year Mets fan (yes, I jumped on the bandwagon in 86, but haven’t gotten off since) and I think it’s great to hear intellgent, unbiased comments about the team. I currently live in Baltimore, so other than the crappy Mets MLB website, I don’t get too much news about them.
Keep up the great work and someday I might get the courage to call in, as you requested in this podcast. Maybe you’d get more participation if you asked a question at the end of the podcast and invited listeners to give their opinions. Like, “Do you think Beltran is milking the injury” or “Should the Mets just cut that waste of space, Jorge Julio.”
By the way, my answers are “yes” and “yes”
Kevin,
Glad to have you on board. It’s tough to find Mets content, even in New York. And the Yankees seem to get the back page stories even when they lost. I appreciate the advice on the ??? at the end of the podcast as well.
Cheers,
Rob
Heres a question, now that Bannister is hurt, if who ever replaces him does a great job. Do you move them to the fifth spot when Bannister comes back and send Zambrano somewhere else. Personally I would I think the sooner Zambrano is out of the rotation the better.
Well that’s a big IF! I’m not sure how long Bannister will be out but I know he certainly deserves a chance to get right back in the rotation when his hammy gets better.
I don’t think any Mets fan would object to Zambrano getting bounced from the rotation at this point. The guy needs work and he’s better off getting that work in Norfolk.
