Curse Of Coogan’s Bluff On The New York Mets? (Times)

II’ve only been complaining about the Mets ignoring the Giants for two years.  Now that the Times has. maybe they can recognize the old New York Giants, winners of 10 pennants.

A Curse of Coogan’s Bluff?  I almost hope it’s true and lasts until I move the team to New Shea in 2060 with the money I make from inventing the holodeck.  New Shea will look exactly like Old Shea on the outside, squares and all, and fans will enter through the Lee Mazzilli rotunda.  

In the meantime, read the Times article where finally someone listens to me.

Citi Field, the Mets’ new stadium, has many reminders of the Brooklyn Dodgers but few that celebrate the New York Giants.

“We’re the ghosts of the Polo Grounds,” the first voice said. “Remember the Curse of the Bambino on the Red Sox after they dealt Babe Ruth to the Yankees. Well, when the Mets opened Citi Field last April with hardly any mention of the Polo Grounds or the New York Giants, we put the Curse of Coogan’s Bluff on the Mets.”
