PHILLIES OR YANKEES? TWO PLANE CRASHES OR A SWINE FLU EPIDEMIC PLEASE.

This is literally a nightmare come true for me and my fellow fans of the undoubtedly most UN-metal Mets: do I root for the Phillies or Yankees? This is a perplexing conundrum indeed.

On one hand you have the “root for the home team” thing. On the other hand, those Phillies are shit-talking bastards.

I think I gotta go Phils. Root for the National League (DH is for weenies). I’d love to see Yankee fans all that much more disappointed, because to them anything less than a World Series title is considered a failure. And what’s good for the Phillies this year will ultimately make our rivalry with them that much more heated next year… and an eventually Mets victory that much sweeter.

Oh hey and since this is a metal website, here’s a video of Mike Piazza — one of the most metal Mets of all time — singing live with Overkill in NYC.
