Check this out. I got the nicest gift from my cousin yesterday. Very cool and much thanks!
I’m kind of afraid to wear it to “Shea” so that the real mets police don’t hunt me down – but this blog is big enough now that I doubt they’d want a story about a fan being asked to leave the stadium so I should be OK. Thanks cousin!
Here’s this week’s list of the most popular and those that deserved more love.
These 1969 jerseys are cool – who knew Mitchell & Ness would sell you a Kranepool – even though the real jerseys didn’t have names on the back. Still cool. Here’s some more 1969 Mets links. Here’s one last look at the Giants throwbacks.
T-shirts were all the rage: The I’m Calling It Shea t-shirts zoomed back up in popularity (I saw these in the wild the day my camera died at Citi, I would have loved to take shots of them). People really liked the Fiya Minaya tees, thanks to a link from Metsblog.
Tom Seaver’s words were perfect. Seaver showed he’s still The Franchise. No other player carries his weight. Opening Day 1983 is still my favorite.
Nobody listens to me about the day Santana got hurt.
One last try – I can’t believe nobody likes this Downfall Of The Mets parody video but me.
Who will be the next owner of the Mets?
Utley’s Corner in Queens might make you sad but it is what it is.
Sunday is K-Rod bobblehead Day and Mr. Mets dash…tickets were as cheap as $12 on Stubhub Sunday morning: Chicago Cubs at New York Mets Tickets September 6 2009
Anyone want a brick on the new expanded fanwalk? What is the 2010 Marketing Plan anyway?
It is Stadiums Week here on the MP.

I like plugging cool blogs, and I don’t do it enough in-season. Check out Mets Walkoffs for one of the most different Mets blogs out there, Centerfield Maz does a great job although he’s probably writing about the Beatles this weekend.
Night Owl Cards did a great retrospective of Reggie Jackson baseball cards – I remember when my 1979 Reggie got put in the wash. Yuck. I still have it. By the way, I saw Reggie the other day while disguised as Clark Kent. Reggie is not on steroids. Not a big man at all. Those are a “real” 500 Home Runs.
Ballpark chasers says Citi Field is the 8th best stadium. They have New Fake Yankee Stadium at #24 which is just about right, especially when you consider you have to get Land Shark and Tropicana in there.
For Yankees fans who worry, I have been meaning to write this all year – Formerly New Yankee Stadium opened up with 4 World Series appearances in 5 years and the Munson year. You run off 4 of 5 World Series and nobody will be talking about the old place. Except me.
