Faith and Fear in Flushing made its debut on Feb. 16, 2005, the brainchild of two longtime friends and lifelong Met fans.

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?

The team for whose chances I wouldn’t have given you a plug nickel a few weeks ago proceeded to turn on a dime and play like a million bucks, yet on Thursday night my paid admission entitled me only to watch them not amount to two bits for most of […] 18 comments - (Comments closed) | | Print This Post | Christian Yelich, Depth, Fernando Salas, Jacob deGrom, Jay Bruce, Neil Walker, Ray Ramirez, Smokey and the Bandit, The Grim Reaper |
