You can read as much analysis as you want about why they're so inept, but it all really comes down to one thing:

The #Mets suck.

David Peterson is picking up right where he left off. Mets just can't get it right.

Another strong 4th Q for the Knicks. Chef's kiss.

Hawks just a bunch of ball busters

Any hit to the cojones should automatically be a flagrant. .

Great first half. If the rest of the series goes like this I may need to make a cardiologist appointment. #KnicksSky

Do not trespass in Mister Robinson's neighborhood!

Brunson burner! 19 1Q points. Now we need OG or KAT (or both) to join in and keep the Hawks off balance. #KnicksSky

Too many turnovers, #Knicks. Time to close the pastry shop.

This game is lit already. #KnicksSky

Playoff basketball, #Knicks fam! Let's do this!

Mets gonna Mets again

Nothing left to say about the #Mets. At least we still have the #Knicks to look forward to.

Every year I look forward to going to Dodger Stadium to see the #Mets. I skipped it this year. The only positive for this series for me is I didn't spend multiple hundreds of dollars on tickets. I can be miserable at home for free.

Of course Williams gives up a grand slam. #Mets are snakebit.

The #Mets are down 2-0. Might as well be done 10 runs the way
they've been playing.

I'm a big fan of all of Larson's work. Even if you know the history of whatever he's writing about, he still makes you feel like the outcome is uncertain. It's like history as thriller.

David Stearns needs to think about building a moat around his house. Won't be long before #Mets fans break out the torches and pitchforks.

Emasculating? I step on the accelerator of my EV and I feel like I've engaged warp drive.

Lindor breaks through! We have a heartbeat!

OMG, Gelbs has exactly the same take on Dodger Dogs that I do! They're terrible!

I'm eager to see Steve Gelbs take on the Dodger Dogs. They used to be delicious when Farmer John made them. Now they taste like a soggy salty bologna roll on a stale bun.

Can we agree now that David Peterson just isn't all that? He's had some good performances in his career but he'll never be lights out.

that's 12 straight goose egg innings for the Mets. Pray for the
goose.

Peterson dug himself out of a hole. Now let's see of the Mets can score some runs .

Time to get someone up in the Mets bullpen. Already.

not optimistic about the Mets tonite. I'll be happy to be proven wrong.
