September 8, 2005 - The Cyclones close out the regular season on Thursday at New JerseyBrooklyn once again led the league in attendance, and the team would like to thank the fans who have made it all possible. We've known for years," says Cyclones GM Steve Cohen, "that Brooklyn fans are the best in the world. This year, they proved it once again with the passion and loyalty the borough is famous for."

"I knew about the history of Brooklyn baseball, coming in" says first-year Cyclones skipper Mookie Wilson, "but to be a part of it was something else. The fans were all great."

"These fans are amazing," agrees pitching coach Steve Merriman. "The time and energy they devote to this team...it's like everyone's part of a family at KeySpan Park. Brooklyn welcomed my family and me this year with open arms, and it's something I'll never forget."

Hitting coach Donovan Mitchell, in his third season with the Cyclones, has seen this before. "I tell people about it all the time," says Mitchell, "but it's not easy to explain. I think you really have to be here, and be a part of it to understand the atmosphere. It's a special place."

I've been to 2 -- and not even during the same season. But it takes close to 2 hours for me to get there and even longer to get home, so there's a reason for me not to go often.
