Once again I will bust out the “at least it’s blue” backhanded compliment. The only reason to ever use NYM is if you are a lazy blogger who can’t be bothered to reach all the way to type 4 letters or if you are operating the out of town scoreboard. I do concede that I like saying “the NYY’s” but see how I save two characters doing that? That’s twice the savings that typing NYM instead of Mets gets me.
So I was listening to Paul McCartney’s Silly Love Songs (those of you under 35 can leave now) and it got me thinking….some bloggers just want to fill their blog with alternative caps, and what’s wrong with that? Not everything needs to be so serious.
