So this year’s Mets slogan is “We Believe In Eight Inning Games” (with an accompanying pic of close K-Rod). Some of the other possibilities were:
We Believe Low Score Wins
We Believe Touching Three of the Four Bases Is Good Enough
We Believe Home Runs Are Way Overrated
We Believe that Posting the Score is so ’70’s ish
We Believe in 25 Men, Each Giving 4%
PS: Ahhh, the good old mets. giving me material for years
