The Mets Are Having an Extremely Un-Mets Season
Photo: Sean Zanni/Patrick McMullan via Getty Images I can’t be the only person who takes cues for my emotional well-being from Mr. Met. Yes, fine: Technically Mr. Met is incapable of showing emotion, given that his head is a baseball, and his face that has been stitched with the rictus grin of the eternally doomed. But you can still tell what he’s feeling. When the New York Mets , whom he has loyally supported despite the sort of sustained abuse you’d never allow anyone you love to suffer through, are losing — as has usually been happening during the 59 years of his existence — he looks sad, forlorn … lost. Occasionally, Mr. Met loses his temper. Spending one’s entire life as an avatar of such a beleaguered franchise is a crazy-making enterprise, after all. These days, though, Mr. Met is not hanging his head in shame. These days, Mr. Met, alongside Mrs. Met , is taking selfies on the field, playing the trumpet atop the dugout, and generally making it feel like life’s … [Read more...] about The Mets Are Having an Extremely Un-Mets Season

Suspect arrested in killings of Muslim men in New Mexico, and ‘interpersonal conflict’ may have played role
A man suspected of killing at least two Muslim men in New Mexico in recent months is believed to have targeted the victims over an “interpersonal conflict,” authorities said Tuesday. The suspect, Muhammad Syed, 51, was arrested Monday after a tipster contacted authorities, Albuquerque Police Deputy Commander Kyle Hartsock told reporters. Syed is accused of the July 26 and Aug. 1 murders of Aftab Hussein, 41, and Muhammad Afzaal Hussain, 27, Hartsock said. He is a suspect in the Aug. 5 killing of Naeem Hussain, 25, and the Nov. 7 slaying of Mohammad Ahmadi, 62, but authorities are still investigating those cases, Hartsock said.

Bernalillo County District Attorney Raúl Torrez said murder charges are expected in the case. Syed was taken into custody after authorities secured … [Read more...] about Suspect arrested in killings of Muslim men in New Mexico, and ‘interpersonal conflict’ may have played role
