A continuously running joke perpetrated by the City of New York, local businesses, national sports media and Major League Baseball that is meant to victimize a small, yet faithful allegiance of fans into believing that the Mets are indeed a Major League franchise while providing comic relief to fans, players, and management of the 29 actual MLB teams. The Mets and their seasons are constructed in a Washington General-esque manner where in the team always discovers new ways to lose while filling their "fans" with false hope that their up-and-coming players while become of some important historic note. As of late, the Philadelphia Phillies have taken over the role of the Harlem Globetrotters from the New York Yankees to provide a sense of eternal depression to the Mets organization.
"Did you see the Mets lose on that unassisted triple play? Just when I thought I had seen everything..."
The New York Mets
"David Wright appeared on his way to becoming a star until he decided that Abraham Nunez was a player worth modeling himself after."
"The Mets are so bad that now parts of their park are being named for not their own players, but standouts from other rival teams"

The largest and most diverse city in America. With a population over 8 million, and a reputation for blunt honesty, graft and aggression, New York City is actually one of America's friendliest places, with a proud citizen base committed to cooperation. An excellent example is September 11th, 2001, when New Yorkers of all backgrounds automatically pulled together to rescue the injured, rebuild infrastructure, and provide America backbone to withstand the event.
New York City is the most talked-about, thought-about, and most-written and sung about city in the world. New songs, movies, television programs and plays are created about it daily. Moving to, surviving, then living well in New York City is nearly universally seen as "having arrived".
New Yorkers are brash, impulsive, good-natured and approachable. They like meeting people and are not shy about making new friends. Friendships can be struck up in public (i.e. on line for a bus, or at a bank) when two or more unrelated New Yorkers notice something unusual and make a (usually sarcastic) comment to one another.
New York City: Frank Sinatra with a skyline.
Person 1: New York, New York
A hell of a town
The Bronx is up and the Battery's down
The people ride in a hole in the ground
New York, New York...
It's a hell of a town!
Person 2: The example should include the words "New York City". You forgot "city".
Person 1: Lenny didn't use city in that song.
Person 2: Yeah, but he didn't write the lyrics either.
Person 1: Stop arguing with me on the train, you must be from New York City or something.
