The Daily news just published this online.
“As previously stated, we will recognize our team’s heritage and have announcements in the weeks ahead,” the spokesman said. He didn’t comment about the paucity of Shea pictures in the new ballpark.
Mets Police Translation: We somehow didn’t see this coming and don’t actually have a plan yet but we’re scrambling.
Ponder this: let’s say the Mets decided to move to Mercury (as previously announced) and another team, let’s say the Diamondbacks, moved to NYC. Paint over the 14, 37 and 41 on the fence…swap out the flags outside for some of Randy Johnson, Matt Williams and Curt Schilling…and suddenly Citi Field is as much the home of the Diamondbacks as it is the home of the Mets.
What’s the delay? You had all this Mets stuff at Shea…did they sell it? Either order new ones or get the old stuff out of storage and hang it up.
Read the rest here which contains plenty of quotes from fans complaining about stuff we’ve well covered here.

At least the Mets aren’t trying to say that they already have stuff at Chez Amazin’ (a.k.a. Citi Field, the new home of Amazin’).
