When you think Mike Piazza do you think Mets or Dodgers?

I typically think "mullet", does that count? ;)

I would say Mets, but that would be skewed by the perspective of someone who isn't really a fan of either team or the player. I would know him more from 1-800-COLLECT commercials more than from watching him play.

Mets. I'm in NY though, where they obviously get more coverage than other teams.

Its all about Mets baby!! I think he'll enter the hall as a Met. I think he'll retire as a member of the Mets as well. He'll slowly make the transition to first base and maybe next season will be mostly a first baseman and extend his career at least until he's 40. Since he's very personable and great with the media I could see him working in the Mets organization in some capacity.

Damn....I remember MrDingleDangle from Dezign's house. He was wearing that ugly Mets cap.

I always think Piazza as a Dodger. He still looks funny in a Mets uniform.

Piazza was a VERY high (late) draft pick of LA... I think Lasorda had something to do with it because he was his godchild or something to that effect. THat's the only reason I do see him as a Dodger. Otherwise, he's been a Met for as long as I've seen him play here and he'll finish up that way. :D
