The Not-Bob Murphy Mets Sponsorname Broadcast Booth

It’s bothering me every time I hear Howie Rose mention the Sponsorname Broadcast Booth.

Is/Was the Radio booth at Citi Field not named for Bob Murphy?

I know at Shea it was.  I know the TV Booth is/was named for Kiner as recently as the Mets Opening Day Kiner Press Release which mentions it.

I understand that the Mets are a business designed to sell us merchandise and get us to buy tickets.  I understand that WFAN wants to make money….

…but couldn’t Howie just as easily use the Sponsorname Microphone or fill out a Sponsorname Scorecard or something?

What about Bob?  There’s other ways to make a buck and this one is really easily fixable.  Don’t diss Bob or I will start floating the Curse of Bob Murphy theory.  Dear WFAN salesperson…take a long hard look at this photo.  Just sponsor something else.
