Upstate New York's UltiMET Met Fan

Nestled in picturesque Ulster County, New York is the little hamlet of High Falls -- population 627, according to the 2000 United States Census. But this little burg is where arguably the biggest New York Mets fan of all-time makes his home.

Matthew Silverman -- no, not the current president of the Tampa Bay Rays -- is credited with having written or co-authored not one, not two but eight books on the team. He's also an Arizona Cardinals football fan, so this guy really must have some pseudo-masochistic tendencies.

Anyway, if you get the chance, check out his cool website at http://www.metsilverman.com. You'll be glad you did--- and you don't even have to be a Met fan to appreciate his well-written insights!
