New Year's Resolution for a Mets Lifer

At the beginning of a new year it is often a good time to reflect on what has happened over the last twelve months and how you can improve in the next twelve months. Here are some new year's resolutions for this Mets Lifer.
  1. Stop being so surprise when Willie Randolph doesn't put on the squeeze play with Reyes or Chavez on third base with less than 2 outs.
  2. Quit praying for Chipper Jones to be hit in the head every time he comes to the plate
  3. Start praying for Chipper Jones to be hit in the back every time he comes to the plate
  4. Start having faith in the Mets bullpen
  5. Teach my eldest son to memorize the Mets starting lineup
  6. Turn my Armando Benitez voodoo doll into a Jimmy Rollins voodoo doll
  7. Learn to spell Schoenweis (sp?) without having to look it up
  8. Suppress my anger when away games on SNY aren't in HD
  9. Don't order my custom Mets Johan Santana jersey. . .yet
  10. Never forget what Tom Glavine did as a Met
Here's to a successful 2008 Mets season.

Did anyone ask the Mets if our season has come. . .again?
