the mets grrl FAQ

Q. Who are you?
A. I’m a girl in Brooklyn who has, fairly recently, fallen in love with baseball and the Mets. A good place to start is the link titled Introduction, or HOW IT STARTED.

Q. Why Mets Grrl? What’s up with the GRRL thing?
A. Like Riot Grrl. All kidding aside, it was a deliberate choice. Yes, the era of Riot Grrl is over - heck, even Sleater-Kinney broke up - but the ethos and what it represented is still important to me.

Q. You don’t know shit about baseball. Blah blah WHIP blah blah ERA blah blah 1973 Mets blah blah blah.
A. Please to read my disclaimer. Thanks for writing.

Q. Your profile says you’re a writer. What else do you write?
A. Lots of things. But I like that everyone reading me here is reading me without any preconceptions, so I’m going to keep the pseudonym for now. However, if you’re an editor who wants to offer me a book deal, drop me a line and I’ll gladly send you the name of my literary agent. :)

Q. [Insert inappropriate overly personal question here that you’d never send to a guy writing a Mets blog.]
A. Next question?

Q. Do you like any other sports?
A. No.

Q. Will you link to my blog? Do you want to trade links?
A. I don’t trade links. I link to blogs I read and think are cool, and I’d hope that people link to me because they read me and think I’m cool.  But I love hearing about new blogs and check everything out to hope that, well, I read them and think they are cool… which ends up with me putting them on my links list. :)
