When Mets Bloggers Get It Right: The Eddie Kranepool Society

There are tons of Mets blogs out there, and most are decent and written by true diehard Mets fans.

Then there are the "others"....these are the special blogs--the best of the best. They don't chase the same stories as everyone else, but rather offer a unique flavor and insight while still sharing the news of the day.

I'd like to take a minute to give a shout-out to The Eddie Kranepool Society. My friend Steve is the author, and he is brilliant, witty, interesting and just a fantastic writer and storyteller.

Yesterday he had the rarest of opportunities--he met "The Man" himself. That's right, none other than Ed Kranepool!

For Steve it was the fulfillment of a boyhood dream and, as he writes, "I can cross something off my bucket list."

Please take a moment and go read this piece (if you haven't already)...it is simply fantastic.
