The football teams aren't from the same city, though. They play in a completely different state (New Jersey).

Anyway, it seems kind of weird to have the Mets when they already had a perfectly good franchise in the Yankees. What do you guys think? Should we get another baseball team in Kansas City? It sounds kinda fun, but I would probably still cheer for the Royals.

Have the T-Bones ever won the World Series? I'm assuming they have, but I just started following baseball recently, so sorry if this is a dumb question.

One of them seems upset at my 9/11 reference. Yeah, I probably shouldn't have said that as it was a totally uncool day.

That said, Mets blow.

Not yet, but if the Mets can make it in then I'm guessing anyone has a chance.

I think they just take their kids there for that really cute robot apple in CF. I'm guessing it was taken from an amusement park and they rinsed out the kid vomit and put it in CF.

I enjoyed the, are they stealing signs thread. Best reply was along the lines of, "Go ahead and steal our signs, they suck anyway". Made me laugh.

They did have a couple people on that thread asking the other to please stop because threads like this are embarrassing.
