Mets Morning Laziness: 42, 9, F8, MST3K

Happy Anniversary to the Mets Police blog which turns 9 today!

Slackish Reaction:  not the most boring game, not the most exciting game.  No Yo, no bullpen, sometimes you lose a game.  Move along.

Thor: tore a fingernail, and that could cause control problems!

I can both like Jackie Robinson and think the 42 thing could be better at the same time:   the origin of the blog was a post about how it makes no sense to wear names on the back EXCEPT on the day when everyone wears the same number.  I prefer NNOB, but if you’re gonna have them today is the day.   While I appreciate the gesture in everyone wearing 42, I think it would be more powerful if every team picked one person to represent Jackie today.  So say the Mets’ rep we’re Curtis Granderson.  He could wear the number and speak toward why it is important to him.   Instead, MLB overdoes it.  How long until all teams are wearing blue Jackie Robinson Day uniforms?

Fate of the Furious:  easy on the eyes, don’t think about it too much. Fun enough, in a 2 Fast 2 Furious kind of way.  BTW no Coronas in the movie (spoiler!)

How to spend a Saturday:  I might actually blow the game off tonight.  The DVR is so so full, and now Netflix dropped 20 hours of MST3K.  Mets-Marlins games tend to be dreadful. Might be missable.  We’ll see.

Conforto made quite a throw.
