Fun Facts from Over the Pond!

Did you know that the best team in England is the London Mets???

It's true!  "Mets" being an abbreviation here for "Metaphors"!

Oh, all right, it's an abbreviation for "Meteors."

But...Bonus Fun Fact!

The London Mets could beat the New York Mets!

It's true!

Today, the Mets blew their fifth straight game in which they had a multi-run lead!  No team has done that in the major leagues since...the 2011 New York Mets!

Other teams in England that could beat the Mets:

Tottenham Hot Spur
The Arsenal Gunners
Wolverhampton
Leeds United
Man City
Man U
Man U Too Buddy

Yes, they are all soccer teams!  But they could still...beat the Mets!

    Our fellow convict colony, the Ozzies appear to be in first place, but don't trust those Indians after they got out from the Raj.

  2. It appears that the world cup is limited overs matches.

    Wouldn't want your best bowler throwing out his arm.

  3. Britain's finest 'hard' news daily is following all the action. Absolutely titillating. Some of the other sections more so.

    A splendid publication worthy of in-depth perusal. Also info on bookies and call girls. They cover other sports besides cricket. And have frequent topless photos that may or may not be photoshopped.

  5. Meet the Mets
    Beat the Mets
    Step right up and cleat the Mets
    Because the Mets are really missing the ball
    Hitting a wall
    Coming up small
    East Side
    West Side
    They're a bunch of clowns
    And that's your New York Mets!

  6. I always thought it was;

    Meet the Mets
    Greet the Mets
    Step right up defeat the the Mets

    Bring your kiddies
    Bring your wife
    They will have the laugh of their life

    Because the Mets are always missing the ball
    knocking them-selves into the wall...

    East Side
    West Side
    They're the biggest jokes in town.
    So come and meet the New York Mets
    They're New York's clowns.

    (I suppose the words are somewhere on the web but this is what I remember.)
