I told you that Paul’s Random Baseball Stuff has the early lead for the Mazzilli Award for Blog of the Year 2011*, but now I am starting to think that Paul is really me.
Read this post which has a screenshot of the 1992 Mets season ticket form and some social observation on the Saturday+ plans (wow didn’t realize that crap is a 20 year tradition!) – I’m pretty sure I wrote it.
I may have to give Paul the secret logins..if I get hit by an asteroid maybe he can just take over the cowl.
Paul and I seem to be on the same page since my plans for the day are
a) go do some Actual Exercise
b) clean out my shannon@metspolice inbox and post all the pics folks sent in last week
c) make some posts out of the stuff I pulled off my shelf – 1980 yearbook, “Surf’s” history of Mets baseball cards etc.
I’ve also worked far ahead on the site (got some road trips coming up) and it looks like I have enough to get all the way to Spring Training…that’s awesome. I’m in a “too much content” mode this week, but road-trips away from the laptop have a way of making the surplus disappear quickly.
Go read Paul…and to think we were glad Bud Harrelson was gone.

Blog of the Year is challenging. This time last year I don’t think the 2010 winner The Apple even existed…and Stadium Insider crushed 2009 before real life got in the way.
I almost sent those brochure scans over to you, but I wasn’t sure when you’d have a chance to post them.
I’m actually torn about whether the Mets have made “progress” on their ticket plan offers in the past 19 years.
On the one hand, it’s nice that they offer 15-game options now. (The 28-game weekend plan was the cheapest offer on the table in that brochure.) On the other hand, I understand why they dump weekday games in the 15-game plans, but that doesn’t make it any less annoying.
It’s good to know if I get laid up in the hospital you can pretend to be Shannon for a few weeks.
LOL – anytime you need help, let me know 🙂
Thanks for the links – you’ve helped give me my two best traffic days so far this year.
