METS FANS SHARE THEIR MEMORIES OF THE APRIL 19, 1962 GAME:

Mike Roberts
February 12, 2006
I was 10 years old and it was my first time at the Polo Grounds. I remember putting the names in the scorecard and then Casey Stengel changed half the players about 10 minutes before game time.

The Mets were awful and I remember that Frank Thomas hit home runs in his last two at bats when it was meaningless. It was the only time that I saw Stan Musial play. The Mets were awful but not as bad as the 17-4 loss that I saw against the Giants. (That may have been in 1963.)

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!
