Keith and Mets fans Dazed and confused.

While chatting about the Mets easy win last night with my partner in crime , Mets fan73 it was mentioned how Keith has not been himself lately. I have noticed this myself and kind of chalk it up to the fact of where the Mets are in the standings. Keith was part of the 3 man crew last night and seemed to be a bit subdued. He did make his usual funny references like when he called himself a grunt in regards to doing what the manager says. Then there was the point made by Gary how Lowe looked Dazed and confused and Keith chimed in Led Zeppelin.

There is no one like Keith. I am sure the long season has worn Keith down especially when he has to broadcast about a team that is out of the playoff hunt and it’s the dog day of summer. Hey Keith at least your getting paid! What about us passionate Met fans that try to hold on to any reason to watch this team as they languish below .500 for much of the season. We don’t get paid to do it Keith but something just pulls us back. I mean we have every “core” player on the DL now. Even Alex Cora has join the missing! We have Daniel Murphy with his 40 rbi’s batting 4th!

The one fact that amazes me is when I watch the game that the fans are still going to the games. Of course some of them have no choice since they cant get rid of the tickets but it makes me realize I am not alone in this doldrums that this team has put there fans in. Everyone seems to have an idea on how to improve this team for 2010 but at least this lackluster year doesn’t stop then from heading out to flushing to root the 2009 rag tag team on!
