Mets collapse on last day for 2nd straight year

Well, that was fun.

Shea goodbye on a sour note

The Daily News has a gallery of Shea history.



Did Melinda Katz sing again?

no Melinda Katz singing, maybe that's why the Mets were at least in the game this year.

It was Marc Anthony and Glenn Close, who can sing(!).

Nothin' worked.

Lets commission a statue to commemorate this moment - how about Scott Schoeneweis shining up the other Met's golf clubs for a busy October.

They have to suck. If they were champs then the new stadium couldn't hold all of the fans! Imagine building a new stadium in NYC with 12,000 less seats than Shea had. I guess they have to be l-o-s-e-r-s!!!

Significantly, when it was announced during yesterday's Shea closing ceremonies that next year the team will play at "CitiField," the crowd's reaction was a loud and prolonged "Boooooo!"

"Boo" to ridiculously high ticket prices. "Boo" to monstrous, overwrought stadium architecture. "Boo" to the ruination of live baseball in Queens for the middle class, forever.

Was it really necessary to replace the stadiums or was this just another Bloomberg boondoggle? Were they that old and decayed? It seems to me that a fix up may have been a better way to go.
