If my brain processed the information correctly, SNY promoted Mets Yearbook 1988 tonight at 7. I haven’t seen that one (new?) and my tv guide lists a different one but I set the DVR anyway.
It seems like just two years ago some fat guy in his basement suggested that SNY dust off the old rain delay films rather than some dopey quiz game on the street. It warmed my heart to see Mets Yearbook during the rain delay. Does anyone not agree that that’s a great call by the fat guy?
Stars and stripes caps tonight. They are white. You’d have to be a fool to pair those with black jerseys right?
Some of you are starting to Man Up and send in your cheesy jerseys. Well done. Everyone else it’s time to be honest and Show Your Ryan Thompson jersey. I know you have one.
I will be joining the club in a few years. I found a stars and stripes jersey on eBay for less than the price of the awful cap. Plus if I don’t shake my crush on Frenchy I will be president of the club.
Tours of Citi Field start today. I really want to take one but being honest Citi Field is a litttle far from Mets Police HQ and HQ has a pool. Fortunately, Media Goon has taken on the assignment and he is much better at taking pictures.
Look forward to a few shots from the tour over the weekend, and we’ll do a larger post on Tuesday. I don’t want to waste the article when everyone is at the beach.
I’m sure some other blog will hustle and get something up and I’ll feel like a loser but hey, sometimes it’s nice to put the feet up.
Mets Police will be active all weekend. I enjoy taking the laptop to the sunny deck so there will be fresh content and I don’t just mean the pre-written kind although there’s some of that too. Also keep an eye on metspolice.tumblr.com for pictures of my weekend Mets related activity.

I love those Met Yearbooks. The one from 1980last night was great… the crowd was so non-cynical, they were such believers. They really believed in Mets MAgic.
Also, I forgot how incredibly skinny Pat Zachry was. Wow.
I really wanted to take the tour this weekend, but I put it off on if I would have time, and now they’re sold out. boo hoo!
They sold out? Yesterday there were Saturday tours available.
I checked at like 6pm yesterday and it said the weekend tours were sold out. procrastination doesn’t work apparently.
I’m starting to soften a bit on all the color, and design variations of our uniforms. Yes, I don’t like the black, but you know we all love the Mets. The fans that buy this stuff do it because they love the Mets too (I hope), so wy not. I like the attention on all the yearbooks too. I just bought the 1962 yearbook on ebay. I now have them all, 1962 to 2009. One cool thing about the ’62 book is when you open it up, it has a picture of Shea with the heading, “Flushing Meadows Stadium new 1963 home of the New York Mets”
Cool tidbit about 1963. That was optimistic on their part!
