Good morning.  More generic content today (been decent so far, no?) as I focus on Real Job and Media Goon minds the store. Here’s another awesome time capsule from 1980.  Go about 2:40 in and you’ll see some light fisticuffs between the Braves and the Mets. Wait 20 seconds later and you’ll see the greatest Met Continue reading Mets fight Braves…in 1980 (video) Thanks to Kevin for sending this over.  Wow wow wow. Look how small everyone is.  That’s the baseball I remember before everyone started taking vitamins in 1995. Ralph Kiner in his 80′s: charming.  Ralph Kiner in his 50′s wasn’t so good. Sorry.  Murph appears later – sounds great. Who is that bum managing the team?  He’ll Continue reading Behold: video of 1980 Mets games! A cool article from MLB.com remembering when Lee Mazzilli was in the All Star Game. When Mazzilli was selected to the Midsummer Classic at age 24, many figured he would make a return trip to the game at some point in his career. But in 10 more seasons with five different teams, the outfielder and Continue reading Mets Police 70′s Week: Lee Mazzilli the All-Star Hey, what’s with that new header image at the top of the blog? It’s the image I will be using for 70′s week.  Randy from The Apple sent it over, and I’m not sure what’s that 70′s about it, the car isn’t for sure but there was sometihng about the color scheme and the Continue reading Most Popular on Mets Police (July 11) Howard Megdal who is running for Mets General Manager has a theory on the campaign, and how he will change it if he is elected as GM.  Under my Honor Among Bloggers code, it would not be cool to tell you what he came up with so you’ll have to read it here. Medgal and I Continue reading Megdal for GM on ‘Better Seats, Lower Prices’ (and some Mazzilli) I spent the day reading more of the awesome Faith and Fear book and it bought back more of that stuff I of course know but it still zings my brain: Lee Mazzilli won a ring with the Mets! Lee was the All-Star on some of the scrubbiest Mets teams of all time, and then the Mets Continue reading Lee Mazzilli won a ring with the Mets Randy from the Apple wrote about Lee Mazzilli’s pants. Those pants apparently made quite an impression on at least one young boy from Queens in the 1970′s.
First up, an apology to Maple Street Press. Â In March they were kind enough to send me the Maple Street Mets Annual which was and is a really excellent resource for Mets fans – and the excuses don’t matter, I blew it and never did a proper review. Â I don’t have a time machine and Continue reading 100 Things Mets Fans Should Know And Do Before They Die (Revised and Updated) This is on ebay today (hmmm). Â Osh41, Baron, everyone else…whatcha think? Ebay link It does have dropshadow, but it’s not a retro, does have a 16 on front. Believe it or not I’m not good at catching jersey nitpicks….help.
As you may know, I have a man crush on Lee Mazzilli that dates back to the late 1970′s. I want to buy myself some sort of Mazzilli jersey (number 16 of course, how dare they give that to some rookie pitcher in 1984) but I don’t know how to handle it. They sell Mazzilli jerseys, but Continue reading What kind of Lee Mazzilli jersey to buy? Yes I actually have a Lee Mazzilli Google alert – I was very excited about this first paragraph of a story: Freshman infielder LJ Mazzilli had a unique childhood that ranged from meeting Derek Jeter to playing video games in the clubhouse at Fenway Park with Sal Fasano. In his first season at UConn, however, Mazzilli Continue reading Mazzilli: The Next Generation My “Lee Mazzilli” Google News alert caught this one… ’86 Mets, Spiderman, The Hulk, and Lee Mazzilli supposedly not enjoying it. Read here for behind the scenes. (If you’re a newer reader of Mets Police, the Saturday beat tends to be lighter fare and yes I have a man-crush on Lee)
