What would a website be without SOME sort of cheesy advertising plug? Here’s mine: Check out the CW11 this Saturday, March 29th at 7:30. The 2008 Mets: Built to Win, sponsored by Audi. Sal Marchiano, Lolita Lopez and John Muller preview the 2008 contingent of Flushing’s Finest. Can the Mets rebound from the biggest collapse in baseball history? Will Johan Santana do EVEN BETTER in the NL? Can the Mets close out the 45 year run of Shea Stadium (a park only a mother or a Met fan could love) with a world Championship? Tune in Saturday night to get the info on all things ‘Amazin.’

More on the Mets: As all Met denizens know, this is the final year in the 45 year history of Shea Stadium. During our Mets preview, we’ll hear from Ron Swoboda, Ed Kranepool, Rusty Staub, Art Shamsky, Ed Charles and Keith Hernandez on their recollections of the biggest landmark within LaGuardia Airport’s flight pattern. We want to know: What are YOUR favorite memories of Shea? Opening Day in 1964? Perhaps you were stuck in line as several restrooms weren’t functioning! Tom Seaver’s ‘Imperfect Game’ against the Cubs in July of 1969-serving notice the ‘Miracle Mets’ were a force to be reckoned with. Did you run on the field after the Mets shocked the Orioles to win the World Series? Did you leave game 6 in ‘86 against the Red Sox EARLY, thinking Boston had the title? Maybe your memories are more personal—the first time your Dad took you to a game. he foul ball you caught the day you skipped school. Whatever...if it brings forth passion and recollection, leave a comment and share your thoughts.
