 
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?

As it happens, I too have been mistaken for a member of the New York Mets. Though I had a (reluctant) hand in the misidentification. Time has erased a lot of the details, but I know it was the spring or early summer of 2000, and I was facing a particularly dreaded New York City transportation […] What's all the hubbub about tonight, anyway? We all know that New Year's is actually a moveable feast. It came on April 3 this year, it will fall on April 1 next time around. Properly, tonight is just another night in the waning of the Year of Our Mets 45. But plenty of deluded folks will […] What's all the hubbub about tonight, anyway? So I'm looking at Deadspin's roundup of October, and I can't help re-reading the triumphant recap of Game 7. (Hey, Will's a Cardinals fan; while I wish I were the one being gallant in victory, I don't begrudge him his happiness.) Anyway, in looking through the comments about the post I found this one: At least […] So I'm looking at Deadspin's roundup of October, and I can't help re-reading the triumphant recap of Game 7. (Hey, Will's a Cardinals fan; while I wish I were the one being gallant in victory, I don't begrudge him his happiness.) Truly veteran readers of this blog may recall last year’s incarnation of this post, and so know that THB stands for “The Holy Books.” In which case your geek-proximity alarms just went off and you’re backing slowly away. Everybody else, here’s a quick refresher: I have a pair of binders, dubbed The Holy Books by Greg, […] Truly veteran readers of this blog may recall last year's incarnation of this post, and so know that THB stands for “The Holy Books.” In which case your geek-proximity alarms just went off and you're backing slowly away. If you haven’t already, by all means get yourself a copy of the Nov. 27 New Yorker, and read the Roger Angell season recap. I’ve loved Roger Angell as long as I’ve loved baseball — I remember reading The Summer Game as fast as a young boy could read a pretty thick book and realizing to […] If you haven't already, by all means get yourself a copy of the Nov. 27 New Yorker, and read the Roger Angell season recap. To sum up Thanksgiving for me, here’s a shot* of me and my lovely wife, on our way to hook up with Greg and Stephanie in the upper, upper, upper, uppermost deck for the Mets’ 4-1 win over the Dodgers on Oct. 5.
