From the Makers of Jerry's Juice Comes Terry's Tonic!

One of our favorite features on the site last season was Jerry's Juice.  Every loss, we'd look over Jerry Manuel's reasoning behind the team's shortcomings in that game and make sure you tasted a bit of Kool-Aid with it.  Well, just because we have a new manager doesn't mean we shouldn't stop finding the positives in everything our manager has to say.  Terry Collins is already stirring the Kool-Aid with an email he sent to Mets fans- here's a little piece to get you excited for tonight:



With our 2011 opener tonight in Florida, I want to make this pledge to Mets fans: our team will play the game the right way. We will always hustle on the bases, run balls down in the outfield and never take anything for granted, no matter the score of the game. We had a great Spring Training. From day one my message has been look ahead, not backward, and not to worry about what the people outside the clubhouse are saying. If we pitch and play defense like I know we can, we will surprise a lot of people, a lot of people.

Clap...clap...clap...Let's Go Mets!....oh man am I excited!

This is what we've been asking for right?  We want to win, but even if we don't we want the team to have some fire, not just say they care but actually show it, and hustle.  If this is the case, I think all Mets fans will be happier and the wins will come.  So I guess there's just one thing to do....play ball!

Have a great season everyone and enjoy tonights' game.

PS: Stay tuned as we're planning to announce this afternoon that we will be live blogging all through the game tonight. 

DRINK IT UP!
