2011 Mets

Well, with the firing of M&M there is a chance I could be reinvigorated about the 2011 Mets, depending on who they bring on. I can't really evaluate the situation any better than this article.

Of particular enjoyment:

The Mets need to be fumigated, stripped bare and built from the ground up. There is no patch job here.
Let's face it. Your team is filled with losers.
That's not harsh. Sadly, it's reality.
Plus, the culture is all wrong. There's something missing. Your team never had a real identity.


Another article basically said be honest with the fans, level that the team will need to be entirely rebuilt, and if you do it the right way people will support them along the way. The Mets do have some exciting young prospects--but I can only get excited about them if I believe the team is in capable hands and has a real future. Under the M&M regime there was no reason to get excited about any prospect since you knew the team was going nowhere.
