Wait a minute, I thought Mets fans had a hard one for those guys? I even talked to a few Mets fans that thought both of them were future HOFers.

That's funny (you are joking right? but if you aren't, I may mess with tomterp here and there but I would never stoop to calling him a mets' fan).

Sadly, I am not joking. I have nothing against either man, but HOF? GTFOH!

You can attribute that to the mythology that, for some inexplicable reason, follows Ryan Church and dupes people into hyping him into something he clearly isn't. I'm not sure why people would ever say that about Schneider either but I heard he calls a "darn good game" and that rhymes with hall of fame.

dude there were Mets fans over on the Mets board predicting(with a straight face, and dead serious) that Church would hit .330 -35hr-120RBI.

so yeah, they definitely deified Church, just like Tom does.
