More about that alternate Mets NY logo

The other day I mentioned this alternate Mets logo that you see on the bags.  See how the Y overlaps the N?

The folks an njbaseball pointed me toward this link (scary warning there makes me afraid to show you here) but the caption says it is from spring training in 2007.  Perhaps this is some sort of Spring Training NY logo?

Take it away njbaseball:

I think it’s just the fact that it’s an iron-on (or something) logo instead of stitched. I found a pic from last year and this one from 2007 and it’s the same on the bags. The logos here sort of meld the two letters together, though, so it’s interesting that the bags show the outline of the Y and not the N.

What does this all mean?  Not too much.  I find it interesting, and I find it ugly.  It also gave me something to pre-write about while I’m at a major sporting event today.
