The Mets had the Access Media over yesterday.
Here’s a perfect example of the Mets not thinking things through. Mascot races are fun. Lots of teams have them. Someone comes up with the 5 Boros race.
But you can’t have The Bronx win, right?
Now, the move would have been to make sure The Bronx finishes last every single time forever. We could have all booed The Bronx. This is The Way.
But nope, the Mets did a combined “Manhattan and The Bronx” team – so basically it’s a 4 Boro Race.
I don’t hate the idea, but I think the individual mascot designs suck. There was a better version of this to be had – could you have had former players? Wouldn’t a Keith Hernandez Mustached character looked cool? Maybe a Piazza, a Seaver and a Wright?
Anyway, this is what we got from Alex and the other owner.
