Meet the Mets, Indonesia
by Greg Prince on 2 April 2014 10:38 am
Longtime Friend of FAFIF Ben Nathan, who in 2010 gave us his dissertation on why Jerry Manuel was a Woodrow Wilson for our 20-inning times, continues to put his mind to only the finest intellectual pursuits. Of late he has been in Indonesia teaching schoolchildren. And what has Ben been teaching them?
Why, to Meet the Mets, of course!
Ruth Roberts and Bill Katz would be proud. I sure as hell am.

Thank God (Allah?) they’re not learning OTHER teams’ theme songs.
But seriously, haven’t the poor schoolchildren of Indonesia suffered enough?
Do we have to inflict Bobby Parnell on THEM, too?
This is the best thing I’ve seen all day.
This reminds me of the Do Do Ron Ron scene from Stripes :)
Best ESL class ever.
