Introduction to me: Degen!



Hi everyone. I'm Degen, part of the Silverman-Larkin Mets family. I'm a 12-year-old girl. My favorite player on the Mets is David Wright. I know a lot about him. Like that he won the Golden Glove last year and that he hit 30 homeruns and had 30 stolen bases last year, which is hard to do. I even wrote to him once, but he never wrote back! I even have a poster of him in my room. I also like Jose Reyes. He's cool and really fast. My little brother Ethan likes him too. Sometimes the Mets break my heart though. Like in 2006 when Carlos Beltran struck out, I couldn''t live with myself. Then in 2007 when they didn't make it to the playoffs, I was so angry. This year, I know they won't break my heart, they just can't anymore, especially it being their last year at Shea. It would be so nice to have the Mets win the World Series on their last year at Shea. My dad wasn't able to get tickets to last game at Shea, but if they make the playoffs, than maybe my dad will be able to get tickets to one of those games! I hope so. There are times when I know the Mets are the best team in baseball, but then there are times when all I can do is turn the tv off and not watch them lose, again! A long times ago(two years) I didn't even know that baseball had two different leagues, but something happened that year, that year 2006, I guess we all thought that the Mets were going to win, so I learned a lot that year about baseball. I learned almost every name on the Mets. I remember when Benny Agbayani, my favorite player, moved to Japan I didn't know who to like. Corey, my brother, told me to like david Wright, so I did. I didn't know anything about baseball but I had someone to like. I still have more, a lot more, to learn about baseball but I know enough now to feel sad when the Mets lose, before I could care less, but now I feel as the players feel when they lose and when they win.
