METS FANS SHARE THEIR MEMORIES OF THE SEPTEMBER 25, 1979 GAME:

The New York Times got it wrong reporting this game. In their early editions, they headlined this loss of the first-game of a doubleheader as the Mets losing their 100th game of the season. In fact, the Mets needed to lose the entire doubleheader to get to their hundredth loss. Of course, they ended up winning the second game of the doubleheader and their final five games in 1979 after that to finish the year with "only" 99 losses.

The Mets suck! They need to trade Smith and get somebody like Jones.
This comment is off-topic and will be removed. It has nothing to do with any specific game. But here's an acceptable alternative:

Example Two
The Mets suck! Smith made three errors in this game, and hit into a double play, and the Mets blew a 5-0 lead. They need to get rid of Smith and get somebody like Jones.
See the difference? Here you're getting the same point across, but it's in the proper context. We wouldn't consider this message to be off-topic, and we would let it remain.

We do appreciate anybody who takes the time to share their thoughts on our site, and we hate to remove anybody's postings. But if we didn't take steps to ensure that only on-topic messages were retained, The Ultimate Mets Database would become a confusing jumble of unrelated comments, and would thus be less enjoyable to visitors like you.

Thank you!
