The midway point of the pro baseball season arrives tonight, with a few elements that make it seem like a contest from long ago. For one thing, the National League is defending a winning streak. And for another, one of the pitchers on the roster tonight is a knuckleballer – but New York Mets pitcher R.A. Dickey won’t be starting for the NL, because of fears that catchers may have problms fielding his knuckleballs.

As a diehard Mets fan, this is icing on the cake for me. I'm constantly in a state of euphoria every time a sportscaster or any other media pundit comments about how surprisingly well the Mets are doing this year! Oh yee of little faith.
I hope they continue to do as well in the second half, but if not, I'll still be watching when available games are broadcast and I'll be with them to the last day of their season, good or bad.
