The Lakers have Jack Nicholson and all of the Hollywood types.  The Yankees have Rudy Giuliani.  And the Cowboys have so many fans around the country.

But the Mets have Jerry Seinfeld, who is one of the most articulate, enthusiastic and funny fans in history.  He is completely plugged in with the Mets and this week spent 6 innings in the  SNY booth with Keith Hernandez and Gary Cohen.   Here’s a link to “Metsblog” with the whole story, a short video clip and some great fan remarks.  The Mets have some other great and funny celeb fans like Chris Rock and Jon Stewart.  It would be great to have those guys doing play by play as well.  The SNY booth happens to be one of the best and funniest in the business and can handle this sort of nonsense better than most, I’d bet.

A few days prior to that event, he called in to WFAN’s Steve Somers show for a more concentrated view of all things Mets and Jerry.  Here’s a link to the audio.

Anyway, I’m a very happy Mets fan these days (especially cause we are winning) and Jerry made it even better this week.  Thanks Jerry.
