Let's Go Mets!

The Mets are in the NLCS for the first time in 6 years, and they have the best team I can remember in my lifetime. I'm really excited, but it's hard to share that excitement with anyone else, since everyone here is a Diamondbacks fan, or something else. No Mets fans here in Tucson. So I've decided that just being an open baseball fan is good enough. I've been putting the playoff games on the tv in the classroom on mute, and letting my students watch the game as long as they are quiet and do their work. If one student starts being disruptive, the game goes off. (They don't know that I REALLY don't want to do this.) And it works!

Anyway, I don't have a TV, so I'm gonna have to just chill in my classroom a lot after school to watch the games. Or I can steal Elie and Becca's TV. Or something else. This is seriously the one time of year I really wish I had TV. I could do without it for 11 months, no problem. But playoff baseball? I feel tortured.

You all can help my sharing my passion for the Mets, and hoping really hard that they win, so that I can get over my frustration of not having a TV by knowing that they will win. So, just think of my name: GM. It stands for Go Mets. Hahahaha.
