I'm from the New York side of CT and I like the Yankees and am completely ambivalent to the Mets.

Well, apparently "ambivalent" doesn't mean what I think it means. Let's put it another way. I don't really care about the Mets.......or the Jets for that matter...one way or another.

Islanders, Rangers, Cosmos, Red Storm, Generals..........all in the same boat.

The real fan, you pick a side. You can’t root for both teams. Islander-Rangers even more so. Only a fair weather fan will root for both teams…

Mets fan from Upstate New York. Generally dislike the Yankees but the Braves and Phils are light years ahead in terms of teams I really hate.

Mets fan from the strong side of the Hudson (New Jersey, for the uninitiated). Same as Carter08 for me.

As a kid from Long Island born in 1980, it was easy to like both the Mets AND the Yankees. The Mets for obvious reasons: '86 World Series, Strawberry, Gooden, etc.

The Yankees for obvious reasons: Mattingly, Henderson, Winfield, etc. My first big baseball card purchase was a Mattingly Rookie in like 1988.

Since the Mets and Yankees never played each other before interleague play, there was not much a conflict of interest.

But I lived less than an hour from Shea Stadium, and went to many games there. I never made the trek up to the Bronx.

So definitely foremost a Mets fan, but I'll take the Yankees over most teams in the AL.

I hate both, but I admit I liked Jeter and Rivera.
