Hey guys. That’s right it is your old buddy Media Goon(@mediagoon and media goon@gmail.com if you need to find me) filling in for Mr. Shark. This weekend was crazy. Of course you guys know I was at the No Hitter Friday night(can read about it here if you haven’t already), was also at the Complete Game shutout Saturday(won on contest for free tickets on twitter from a Mets ticket Representative), and Sunday went to go see the Mets HOF Induction of John Franco. I have tons of pics and video from Sundays game and Blogger Tailgate that was hosted by Brian Erni and Vinnie Cartiglia of MetsBlog.Thanks guys for throwing it together. Of course, the usual suspects were there Kerel(On the Black), Randy (Read the Apple), Darren(The7Line) and a mess of people from twitter. It was a good hang with these guys.
Yes, the black jerseys appeared, but Shannon said it was acceptable due to The Treaty of Flushing and to the fact that is the jersey most associated with Franco.
Plaque Presentation
Since I graduated SJU in ’98 I’ll throw this one up here.
Shannon and I have been talking in the past few months on how Citi Field feels like “home” now and it really does. Mets had their first “Big Memory” at Citi Field, the Mets are winning, people are buzzing in the stands, more Mets gear is being worn out in the “wild”. It’s fun watching this team. I like the fact that this site and twitter brings us together when we are at the stadium. It’s like a neighborhood where people know each other and its always great to run into someone you know at a random spot in the park. I am so enjoying this time. I hope you guys are too.
Oh yeah here’s a pic of someone near and dear to Shannon wearing black.
