The dumbest thing anyone has ever said. Ever.

Congratulations, Wallace Matthews.

There's only one thing keeping the 2008 Mets from being the biggest embarrassment in the long and proud history of New York City baseball.

The 2008 Yankees.

Of the 100+ plus years of professional baseball in New York, the 2008 Yankees are the biggest embarrassment. The. Biggest. Embarrassment. In. Over. 100+. Years.

The 2008 Yankees, who won 89 games in a division where FOUR OUT OF FIVE TEAMS won at least 86 games, are the biggest embarrassment in the long history of New York City baseball? REALLY? NOT the Mets? Choking away their postseason dreams on the last day of the season against a playing-for-nothing Marlins team two years in a row is NOT at least as embarrassing? Nor the 1962 Mets? You know, the team that lost more games in a single season than any other team has done before or since.

Wallace Matthews is the biggest embarrassment in the long and sorry history of New York City baseball coverage.
