Still Not Getting a Read
I’m still not getting a read on this season. No one is. I’ve seen uneven Mets seasons before, I’ve seen bad games follow good games and vice versa, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a season in which absolutely superb and absolutely lousy games follow each other day after day after day for such a long stretch.
By the way, if you’ve never seen me read from my own work, please check out this video of a reading I gave of pieces from Mets Fan at the Chappaqua Library in Westchester:

Well said!
I could not agree more with you about Gary, Ron and Keith. I find myself unable to listen to other commentators. It is a bit like going from reading the NY Times to reading the Daily News. They refuse to succumb to the trappings of 24 hour news cycle catch phrases and headlines. To grasp their true expertise a fan (such as me) takes great pleasure in listening to these three call games all season long. I plan on doing just that for many years to come.
