THE 2006 PLAYOFFS WERE THE CULMINATION OF A GREAT SEASON.
DURING HOME GAMES THE STADIUM WAS ELECTRIC. WHEN THE METS WERE ON THE
ROAD, THE BARS AND RESTARAUNTS MADE FOR AN EQUALLY RAUCOUS ENVIRONMENT.
WHETHER IT WAS THE NLDS GAME 3 CLINCHER OVER L.A. FROM A BAR ON THE EAST
SIDE OF MANAHTTAN, OR THE DRAMATIC GAME 7 CONCLUSION IN THE NLCS SERIES
WITH THE CARDINALS, THE FANS WERE NEVER SHORT ON EMOTION.
WE FOUND OURSELVES IN THE MIDDLE OF A VERY DIFFERENT DRAMA.ONE THAT HAD
NOT PLAYED OUT AT ANYTIME DURING THE REGULAR SEASON OR AT ALL DURING THE
PREVIOUS YEAR. EVEN A CASUAL FAN COULD FEEL THE DIFFERENCE.
THE EMOTIONS INVESTED WERE SO POWERFUL. WE OFTEN FOUND OURSELVES
ROOTING FOR THE METS, IF ONLY TO ENSURE THE GOOD NIGHT SLEEP FOR OUR FANS.
