 
Faith and Fear in Flushing made its debut on Feb. 16, 2005, the brainchild of two longtime friends and lifelong Met fans. Greg Prince discovered the Mets when he was 6, during the magical summer of 1969. He is a Long Island-based writer, editor and communications consultant. Contact him here. Jason Fry is a Brooklyn writer whose first memories include his mom leaping up and down cheering for Rusty Staub. Check out his other writing here. Got something to say?

Talk About a Caesars Club
Robert Moses patterned Shea Stadium after the Roman Colosseum, yet only one of them isn’t a parking lot today. Mark “Bluenatic” Weinstein confirmed that not all ancient ruins have been paved over when he recently parked himself and his classic FAFIF t-shirt in Rome. I wonder if anybody over there mutters, “It’s a dump, but it’s our dump.” Probably not. As for the shirt, it can be your shirt by clicking here. 4 comments to Talk About a Caesars Club |

I can see the people in the stands behind Mark. I hear them saying, “Sure, the lions ate them, but they didn't die right. I took the whole office down to see the Saturday matinee and all they have are some puny Christians. I paid good gold for those seats and I get puny Christians? My life's not difficult enough? Someone bring those Christians back to life and give back my gold coins.”
Mark's choice of attire during his international travels merits a big “thumbs up!” from this half-Italian…
Believe it or not, this Colosseum is in better condition than the one in Uniondale.
Excellent representing in a gorgeous locale!
