The results on the field don't even matter anymore. The only thing that matters is a good storyline:
"The Mets are winning now. They have been a better attraction, by a lot, across the first half of the season, a better story, than the Yankees ..."
While playing in the inferior NL, the Mets' record is one-half game better than the Yankees' record.
The Yankees have also drawn more people to their ballpark. By a lot.
"Not even the most ambitious of Mets fans thought they were going to win the Series this year or make the Series."
Oh, really?
Too late, Lupica.
You can't lower expectations now just to keep your Underdog story alive.
