Tantrum over. I have decided to go back to writing about the Mets I’m still pretty annoyed at all of you but the 35,000 because you’ve left me with no ground to stand when it comes to sticking up for team history.
It’s hard for me to take the franchise to task today after yesterday’s poor showing by the fans but why in Gooden’s name did they wear black yesterday?
I know the starting pitcher gets to pick the uniform (and clubhouse music) but couldn’t someone come downstairs and inform Mr. Niese that the team would be wearing pinstripes* for the Hall of Fame Day.
When the Mets honored the Cubans didn’t someone make such a decision? Or last year with the Pseudo-Giants uniforms?
At least Gooden looked nice.
As for the pinstriped uniforms, let’s all agree to stop calling them retros. They are the uniform that the team should wear. Calling them retros makes it sound like they belong in the 1940s. Then again, you don’t care about the past do you? Wear your black and enjoy your shake.
