Well, now that we're two weeks into our little pet project here at Back Off The Ledge!!!, I figured I'd take a moment here to just say "thank you" for sticking with us as we try to find our voice.
As I mentioned in our first post, there are a lot of Mets blogs out there. Nobody is on top of everything Mets the way Matthew Cerrone and his staff over at MetsBlog are. I can only dream to write half as eloquently on my beloved baseball team as Greg Prince and Jason Fry do over at Faith and Fear. And nobody is as great (and as fair) as Shannon Shark is at calling the Mets out on everything over at The Mets Police. These guys and the many other great Mets bloggers have set a high standard in interactive fandom. It is our goal simply to have fun with this experiment and offer our own unique perspective on a very interesting ballclub we're proud to call ours.
So, thank you for giving us a shot!

Speaking of "giving people a shot"...
Jerry Manuel is still the manager of the New York Mets. Jon and I have spent infinite amounts of time on Jerry and why he should (or in Jon's case SHOULDN'T) be the manager of the New York Mets. Stay tuned - we'll spend some quality time on this issue in the next couple of days.
For now, here are two contrasting pieces. First up is Mike Vaccaro's plea for Jerry to receive the ax, from yesterday's New York Post. And here is Mike Lupica who reasons (as I do) that responsibility for this roster lies solely on the shoulders of Omar Minaya.
So, be on the lookout for more on Jerry and the Mets' current state.
