Frank Thomas tried to cheer up the Mets and accidentally made it much worse

James Dator
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

“The Mets have nothing to hold their heads down for, except they didn’t play that well and they gave away this World Series”

Other Frank Thomas sayings in moments of turmoil:

“You have nothing to be ashamed of, except that you are a failure of a human being and everyone thinks you’re a disappointment.”

“You have nothing to be sorry for, except that we all hate you and Steve from accounting needs 14 stitches.”

”You have nothing to regret, except that your life will never get any better and you blew that job interview.

“You have no reason to hang your head, except your mother was really looking forward to this vacation and you only get one 25th anniversary.”

“You have no reason to feel sad, except you did just turn 30 and so begins your slow march towards death.”

“You have everything to live for, except that parasite you picked up in the rain forest which is slowly liquefying your vital organs.”

“You have nothing to be sorry for, except you did just suggest we watch Grown Up 2, and now we’ve all forgotten what laughing is.”
