After a long off season for New York Met fans, we finally get a
crack at the  team we  gave  a  gift  to  last  season…the
Philadelphia  Phillies.  Christmas  won’t  come  early  again  this
year  Philly  fans.  The  New  York  Mets  will set out on Tuesday
afternoon to make things right!

I am well aware, painfully well aware, that the Mets blew a 7 game
lead with  only 17  left  to  play  in  the  2007  regular  season.

I am also well aware that the Philadelphia Phillies played very well down the stretch run  last  September .

However,  write  it  down,  starting  tomorrow,  April  8th, 2008,
the  New  York  Mets  will  defeat  the  Philadelphia  Phillies. This
will mark the beginning of Willie Randolph and his players paying back
the Shea Stadium faithful for the nightmare that was last season. 

I for one cannot wait to resume the Turnpike series….lets go Mets!    

(The starting pitchers will be Oliver Perez vs some very old dude for Philly).
