Paul Articulates - One way to win

The 2025 season has been extremely frustrating for both the Mets and their fans.  Despite a very good roster, some strong prospects, and some deadline trades that looked promising, the team has not succeeded.  One could say they underperformed, but that is an understatement.  They have found so many ways to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory that we are just left shaking our heads and wondering how it got this bad.

So if it is difficult for you to turn on the television or use your favorite streaming app to take in a Mets game, I have found a way to make it more entertaining.  Gather your friends, turn on the game, and play bingo!

You have probably seen variants of the bingo game for travel to keep restless young minds from driving their parents crazy.  Well this game is designed to keep you from driving yourself crazy as hope melts into anxiety which melts into frustration.

Just print out your bingo card and highlight the squares as those frustrating game-changing plays occur and yell, "Bingo" when you get five in a row.  At least someone wins. (wink)
