Yes black is a scourge on the face of the earth – but my main issue with the color is that it looks terrible on Mets merch.

However, I am wearing my new BP jersey for the first time and it looks pretty snazzy.  Even on a fat guy.  Plus it comes with number on the front!  So as the king of fairness, I will say that this jersey looks nice despite the blackness.

Here’s the jersey on actual Mets.  As Media Goon and I have been saying all spring – they look much better in person.

Perhaps an alt based upon this design (lets lose the underarm black) would make the Blue camp happy, generation Piazza happy, give the Mets something new to sell, and give the fashion conscious something they can wear on their dates.

What’s really scary is this is the third straight day I am wearing a jersey I’ve never worn before.

Season jersey standings:

In person:  Cream “me” 0-1.   Mazzilli white pins 1-0.

Wearing jersey but not attending:  0-0.

Hoo boy am I late off the draw this morning.  Some times it’s nice to sleep in.

31.696 were in attendance last night.

In 2010, Game 2 – a Wednesday game drew 38,863.  The first Saturday game, also against the Nats, drew 33,044.

While at first glance I found the 31,696 number to be low – when I compare it to the 33k number it doesn’t seem so awful.

…

I had a great time at the game with my son and took a ton of pictures which I will poke away at as the days go by.  Here’s a cool thing you’ll find as you exit the museum and enter the store.  This figure moves and swings the bat.

If you’re the Mets and you don’t want to catch grief, maybe you should place the Dodgers stuff a little further away from the border of the museum and the store…

And speaking of the Brooklyn Dodgers – more on that tomorrow…what is the possible justification for selling Koufax jerseys?

Fun night at Citi where thankfully they gave us this

I was wearing two sweatshirts, a Lee Mazzilli jersey (Mets undefeated while I wear a Lee Mazzilli jersey), my cap, that hat, a hood, a Mets jacket and a thermal.  This is my friend George around the 8th inning.

I’m starting a comspiracy theory about this sign…..why are they “dumping” Reyes shirts?

Just liked this one as a picture

I took shots of the new 1986 exhibit in the hall, plenty of alternate caps, a blue Berra jersey and some You Own This Mets Jersey entries…but it’s 11:30 and Mrs. MP is awake and in a good mood if you know what I mean so I am outta here…;)
