What Mets fans talk about when not talking about the actual games.
The Bobby Valentine panel at QBC17 was extremely entertaining. Bobby is a great story teller, very charismatic, and knows how to hold a room.
Along the way he addressed the potential of serving his country, the confluence of baseball returning to the Olympics and the Olympics being in Japan in 2020, and told a great story about what he was doing when the Mets got Piazza. It involves a toilet.
Treat yourselves…
Hello there. I’ve processed five of the panels from yesterday’s QBC, but now need to go outside and see the sun and get fresh air. More in the next few days.
In this playlist you will find Bobby V, Tim refuel, Art Shamsky, the Uni Watch Panel and Meet The Mets Executives. More panels to come, as well as some other fun audio I recorded that will be part of I’d Just As Soon Kiss A Mookiee.
iTunes link here via AltSportsTalk. Subscribe to get all the panels and the Mookiee podcast as they get published.
I sure do. Head on over to Uni Watch for a recap of some of yesterday’s jersey action at the Queens Baseball Convention. I’ll have some more items (and audio) from that session once I get time. I’ve been in the basement for 4 hours already processing things and am getting bleary eyed.
However, Phil Hecken has a nice recap – go read it!
More to come!
Good morning – lots of QBC recapping to come.
A quick thanks to everyone who came and supported the event, and super-much-thanks to all the volunteers. Dan @dtwohig Twohig and Keith @mediagoon Blacknick did a fantastic thing putting this together.
Anyway, at the Meet the Mets Executives Panel we were talking jerseys (more on that when I get to the recap post) I flashed my 1987 road jersey and it got booed. BOOED. The fans do not like this jersey. Who knew?
Good morning. I’m at the Queens Baseball Convention with the rest of the fans. You should come!
Bobby Valentine, Tim Teufel, Mr. Met, Uni Watch Panel, Adam Rubin, Matt Cerrone, a Seaver presentation, the Gil Hodges Award & More.
Doors open at 11:30, we go until 6. Come.
