when there was not, is not and won't be any kind of divide in the Mets clubhouse? This kind of **** REALLY pisses me off. It is amazing how ignorant and xenohpobic more than a few of these so-called Mets fans are.Un-f*cking-real.
And for the THIRD time in the last few days..some of these low-lifes are STILL talking about, "...guys like Paul LoDuca were what was needed in the Mets clubhouse..." Paul LoDuca, huh?
