K-Lo, though still beleaguered by Met Misery, I have had to carry on — with no relief from watching the Giants drub my Jets on Sunday. I suspect Rudy will carry on through Torre Trouble, too.

FWIW, I really hope the Yanks don’t fire Joe Torre. He’s a class act, and to win nearly a hundred games and almost catch the Red Sox with that pitching actually makes this one of the best managing jobs he’s ever done. Losing to a very good team in the first round doesn’t diminish that.

It fills me with envy to watch the way the Yankees carry themselves. My biggest hope has been that Willie Randolph, an old Yankee, would inject that way of doing things into my team. But watching the Mets this year — especially the idiotic home-run celebrations and acting like they’d just won the World Series two Saturdays ago when they finally beat the Marlins after losing for two weeks running against last place teams — I have my doubts.
