METS FANS SHARE THEIR MEMORIES OF THE APRIL 18, 1986 GAME:

It was a cold April night. We needed a few hot chocolates to stay warm as we watched Carlton unravel in one of his last starts as a Phil.

Remember Milt Thompson hitting a liner that left the park within seconds.

Watched this one recently on the old tape. It's insane to think about now, but after Darling gave up 2 runs in the 1st inning, the Shea crowd booed the team off the field pretty loudly (the team was 2-3, and lost a very sloppy home opener just days before).

In the end, the guys scored 3 times off an aging Steve Carlton in the bottom of the 1st, the 1986 Mets never looked back and those boos minutes earlier are just a humorous footnote in Mets history.

The Mets suck! They need to trade Smith and get somebody like Jones.
This comment is off-topic and will be removed. It has nothing to do with any specific game. But here's an acceptable alternative:

Example Two
The Mets suck! Smith made three errors in this game, and hit into a double play, and the Mets blew a 5-0 lead. They need to get rid of Smith and get somebody like Jones.
See the difference? Here you're getting the same point across, but it's in the proper context. We wouldn't consider this message to be off-topic, and we would let it remain.

We do appreciate anybody who takes the time to share their thoughts on our site, and we hate to remove anybody's postings. But if we didn't take steps to ensure that only on-topic messages were retained, The Ultimate Mets Database would become a confusing jumble of unrelated comments, and would thus be less enjoyable to visitors like you.

Thank you!
