I don't know if I like the Mets' apology. Sports for me is a fun diversion from everyday life. It would be such a bummer if we started holding teams "accountable" by requiring compensation for losses or suing them. Nice post. I don’t know if I like the Mets’ apology.

This is an interesting gesture on the part of the Mets front office and I think is a lesson that many can learn from.

Yes fans have expectations for the Mets to win but so do Marlin's fans. Its actually depressing to realize that someone is always disappointed by the outcome of every game. On a side note, I agree its sweet the Mets actually responded appropriately to your email. There is a catch to sports, someone has to lose.
