Damn the Times is great sometimes. Why oh why didn’t I think of “Debits Field!”
Even the introduction of the Mets’ newest marquee player and a holiday party for children cannot help the franchise sidestep nagging questions over Wall Street ties.
Those mocking the deal have suggested new names for park, ranging from Bailout Stadium to Debits Field.
As irritating as the name on the stadium may have become for the Mets, a bigger issue emerged last week when it was revealed that Fred Wilpon, the Mets’ principal owner, had invested millions of dollars with Bernard L. Madoff, a longtime friend, who was arrested by F.B.I. agents last Thursday. Madoff has been accused of running a Ponzi scheme that defrauded clients of billions of dollars.
Rest is here.

And now: Debits Field – The T-Shirt!
Do you LOVE your Amazin’s, but HATE the fact that the name of their beautiful new ballpark was sold to a corrupt and greedy corporation (and paid for with OUR Federal bailout bucks, at that)?
Well, you can join the protest and reassert your naming rights, with the DEBITS FIELD T-SHIRT!
