The Terry Collins Show

Hi Terry, my name is Gavin. How are you? I enjoy your podcast! I am a young listener. Do you miss managing or no? My favorite Mets managers since I have been alive have been you and Buck. Mendoza is alright but I got some questions with him sometimes. He’s not horrible but he’s okay. If he can clean up his mistakes and if they keep winning not just this year but in the future then I’ll like him more. What was it like to manage David Wright? David is my all time favorite! I met him a few years ago! David should be in the Hall of Fame! I am attending college right now to become a sports broadcaster. Hopefully while I am at college I can possibly start a podcast and I would like to have you on. Hopefully I can have David on too. I really enjoyed his book! My favorite book of all time! The three of us bleed blue and orange. In 1986 and in 2015 both of those teams faced adversity when it came to the playoffs. The 2015 team really faced adversity because I remember watching those games in May and June and a lot of people thought that you guys were out of it. WFAN was blasting the Mets everyday. I will never forget the Nats series when things changed that year. Cespedes really helped. There were a few times when I said that this team has what it takes to make the playoffs. When Wilmer hit the walk off home run, when Granderson, Murph and Duda went deep against Zimmerman on Sunday night baseball, when Uribe hit the walk off double, when Cespedes and Kirk hit those two big bombs in Washington in September and finally when David came back and hit that home run in Philly and when he scored in Washington in September and did that big fist pump to everybody I said to myself that we are this division! Both teams dealt with adversity! Look at this years team, they started 0-5 and out of all things a McDonald’s character by the name of Grimace made this team good again. OMG! Stearns was not overly committed to buying at the deadline too. As the great David Wright once said “let’s go beat LA!” Hopefully you’ll read this review Terry! Let’s go win it all!! Let’s go Mets!!

I listen to a ton of Mets podcasts, and can’t think of one I look forward to more. Legendary guests, and you couldn’t ask for better, more knowledgable, and more straight-shooting hosts than TC and John Arezzi. Great stuff!

Informative interviews. Some friendly constructive criticism- I would suggest to stop interrupting and cutting off the guests and just let them talk.

John Arezzi is an encyclopedia of Mets knowledge. He’s not afraid to put Terry on the proverbial hot seat
