Yuck! It was between the Mets and the Jays and I would have preferred the Jays. Safe to say that this will not be a Bisons team that I can see myself eager to support.

I hate the New York Yankees, the Mets are a close third in the teams I love to hate in baseball. Their fans are cut from the same cloth as Yankee fans, just plain old annoying. They refer to their past like it is supposed to help them in the present or future.

That and really, I don't want to see minor league pitchers hit. Its bad enough seeing major league pitchers swing the bat.

Of all the teams why did we have to get the Mets? People tell me its because the Blue Jays didn't treat Syracuse well, what the hell were they supposed to do? Send down Roy Halladay to pitch for them?

The Bisons have always been a team I enjoyed watching, they had the Indians and before that the Pittsburgh Pirates as the parent clubs, two teams that were neutral enough for me to support them and not really care.

This however, I can't do. Maybe if the ticket is free I would go. But I am not going to willingly spend money on a ticket to support a team I hate more than all besides the Redsox and Yankees.

The Jays would have been a perfect fit for the Bisons, just a shot up the QEW, an hour and a half ride. The Bisons Im sure would have gotten Toronto fans crossing the border to see the up and comers and the Jays would have been able to expand their fan base.

But now, the Jays are stuck in Vegas, I know where I am going for a summer Vacation. Vegas anyone?
