I implore you to read Paul Moro of Ump Bump’s tale of his final three games at Shea.
I was disappointed at times by the fan turnout in the final few games. Other than the final game at Shea, the actual crowd was far less than should have been expected and in my opinion, too pensive. I understand how tense everyone was, but that mentality, I believe filters down to the players.
I feel like you need to root your heart out as much as you can in a big week like the one the Mets just went through. Instead, fans acted like they were waiting for the other shoe to drop, and felt like losing was a forgone conclusion.
I expect better from us next time around.
