Was a Yankee fan in 1961 and flOllowed Mantle and Maris Home Run rampage to overtake Babe Ruth. Mets came along in 62 and I have been a fan ever since. Just my nature to favor the underdog. Still followed Yankees until Steinbrenner came along and started to out spend everyone else and buy championships! Incidentally, read on Internet once about the demographics for Mets vs Yankees , majority upstate Ny and northern Jersey favor Yankees and Bronx and Staten Island. Mets are more favored in Brooklyn and Queens and Long Island. Manhattan tied. Look it up. Let's go Mets. Take back New York!:
