 
Faith and Fear in Flushing made its debut on Feb. 16, 2005, the brainchild of two longtime friends and lifelong Met fans. Greg Prince discovered the Mets when he was 6, during the magical summer of 1969. He is a Long Island-based writer, editor and communications consultant. Contact him here. Jason Fry is a Brooklyn writer whose first memories include his mom leaping up and down cheering for Rusty Staub. Check out his other writing here. Got something to say?

Clinically DeadFrom the Department of the Painfully Obvious, the New York Mets have been eliminated from postseason contention following their 5-2 loss to the Florida Marlins. Time of death: 9:38 PM EDT, but really, they’ve been done since Puerto Rico. Record before San Juan: 43-32. Record from San Juan on: 31-45. Autumnal equinox is tomorrow night. Very windy right now here where I am. Very barren where the Mets are. Late summer has never felt later. 6 comments to Clinically Dead |

At least it was a meaningful game in September! (I guess to fall short, literally, of that Wilpon goal you’d have to be eliminated in August.)
Somewhere Fred Wilpon thinks, “Did I say ‘meaning-ful‘? Damn, I meant the opposite.”
Oh well. One more season to look back upon when we pick apart everything between 86 and god knows when.

It’s 16 more years, 40 years of wandering in the desert.
