METS FANS SHARE THEIR MEMORIES OF THE JULY 4, 2001 GAME:

I remember watching on tv and it was an afternoon game on a overcast day (but NO rain) and during the game the announcers had a nice chat with actor & Cubs fan Gary Sinese who happened to be in a play in Manhattan at the time. Sometimes when a non-baseball person shows up on a baseball telecast it can be ruined (i.e. when Joe The Jerk Buck talked on the phone to noted baseball "fan" Simon Cowell during the 2003 World Series) but Lt. Dan from Forrest Gump hit it out of the park on this occasion.

I remember before the game getting teary-eyed as they played "Welcome Back Kotter" and put Bob Murphy up on Diamond Vision. He had just returned from a month-long absence dealing with a respiratory illness. It was the first time that it hit me that this treasure who I used to fall asleep to wouldn't be with us forever.

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!
