HEADS MUST ROLL!!!!

I do not know what the answer is but I know that what is going on is completely unacceptable. The Mets are supposed to be contenders but I am wondering if they are really pretenders. What I know is the following:

It is completely unacceptable for the Mets to be only four games above .500 this year. It is completely unacceptable for the Mets to have lost the first two games in this series to Florida, letting them come from behind both times. It is completely unacceptable for the Mets to have lost four out of five games to the Florida Marlins at home this year.

The way the Mets have been playing is just completely unacceptable. They need to do something to fire up the team. Perhaps Willie Randolph needs to go on a Billy Martin type tirade. Perhaps every regular needs to be benched in favor of playing the substitutes and AAA players. Perhaps Randolph, despite having good success over the past couple of years, needs to be fired, as a way of firing up the team, or maybe Omar Minaya needs to be let go, or some coaches.

The bottom line is something needs to happen to fire them up, to get the winning and to help them remember how to play at home. I do not care what it is, as long as it is something. Every Met fan should be disgusted following the 7-5 come from behind victory the Marlins had yesterday on the heels of the Marlin come from behind victory the day before, on the heels of dropping two out of three to the Braves.

Just typing this is making me sick. Hopefully they will do something that makes me feel like ending my blog entry with the standard, “Let’s Go Mets,”, but right now there performance is so lack-luster, I cannot even muster up the energy to end that way.

Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day for Met fans.
