its kinda useless, but im a HUGE Ny METS fan!!  Was great to watch them celebrate after the game.  This will be a great fall if we finally get Chinese Democracy & a Mets World Series!!

It was on espn news, they showed what was going on the last time the mets won the division, one of the things was the number one song at the time in 1988, and the anchorlady said "axl rose was on top with sweet child of mine", there was other things that happened in 88 that I didnt bother to remember,it was not an article, just part of the the espn news telecast, which usually repeats till 4 oclock eastern time.  If you have ever watched espn before you would understand that they frequently throw in obscure but funny references between pop culture and sports.  Maybe you can find something on espn.com in their video clips, but I really dont feel like taking 2 hours to find it.  Its not that important, I was just  doing what many people here do and point out something I saw on tv that referred to axl or gnr, sorry if you misunderstood the intent of my post.

and by the way the tigers have not collapsed yet and their pattern this year is very similar to the path of the white sox last season.  The Sox had a huge lead (like 12 games) over cleveland which dwindled down to a game and a half by the end of the year.  Also the tigers have the best era by far in the majors and their staff is starting to put it together here as the games get more important, and as everyone knows "pitching wins championships".  So we cant just assume its the yanks or the twins at this point.  I think either way were gonna get a great alcs and A.L. dominance in the world series, again!
