John Kruk Hates the New York Mets

As I was working off the stuffing and mashed potatoes, I came across this little nugget about John Kruk yapping his fat head off about none other than the NY Mets. "I know I'm supposed to be biased because I work for ESPN," said Kruk, "but I still hate the Mets."

Huh? Why does it seem like everyone associated with Philadelphia is obsessed with talking about the Mets? It's downright comical how an entire city has such a gigantic inferiority complex. But I guess that happens when one teams' fanbase outnumbers the others in their own ballpark.  

It should be noted that I actually like Kruk on BBTN, and he was after all, doing a good cause, as you will read in the article. So kudos to him for that.

  1. Who can blame him, what's not to hate?

  2. Everybody hates the Mets and I can't figure out why. I can understand why people outside NY hate the yankees, but what did the mets ever do to you? I used to hate the yankees too, but now ill take them over any other team but the Mets, just because so many people hate New York for no apparent rational reason. It makes me sick.

  3. It's so true. I end up hating Baseball Tonight because whenever they talk about the Mets it's always a hate-fest on them. Kruk blatantly hates them, and always tries to say why the Phillies are better. Steve Phillips always talks about how if he was still GM, everything would be better, but since he got fired, they are a mess somehow, and Karl Ravech just goes right along with them. Chris Singletary is the only one who's a little even towards them, but it does seem like a lot of press people don't like them, and it's unclear why.
