The Mets and Chippergate

WFAN producer Al Dukes talked to a Mets official this morning who told him the team intends to honor the retirement of Braves OF Chipper Jones, according to this report on WFAN.com.

“It was a conversation that went like this,” Dukes explained on air, “‘Will we acknowledge Chipper Jones’ career? Yes we will.’”

This is red-hot on twitter right now, with your old buddy @metspolice upsetting a few folks.

I don’t want to honor Chipper. if fans choose to give a respectful clap fine. A video montage or something, hell no.

Now what does “will acknowledge” mean? Who knows. But it’s an off-day and everyone is bored so a made up controversy it is!

We’ll know it’s his last game. We can chant Larry.
