What Mets fans talk about when not talking about the actual games.
Sorry, i couldn’t resist. I’m extra snarky today.
This is a cool bobblehead.
One thing about Angel, he would never charge you to print out tickets at home.
A company I will not promote has a new slogan which is “Why Leave a city that has six professional sports teams, and also the Mets?”
If you would like to know which company you should find the story on the website of a local newspaper not named News, Post, Journal, Ledger, Record or Newsday.
I will have no part of these shenanigans, but I will tell you one thing about that company: they would never even consider insulting Mets fans by charging them to print out tickets at home.
My afternoon news sweep noticed a story in Business Insider. I thought there was nothing new, but then the following perked my eyes.
One source is telling Business Insider that the Mets will have to sell more than just a portion of the team, noting that the Wilpons “need to sell a stake in it TV network SNY if any kind of deal is going to get done.” The source also feels that Jeff Wilpon (Fred’s son) “is not grasping the reality of the familys circumstances” and that the Mets may be operating with a $80 million operating deficit this year.

One thing about Jeff Wilpon, he’d never charge you to print out tick…oh wait never mind.
Uh oh…
Wait, The Owner is going to be paid more than he is entitled? That seems like the sort of thing that….
Hey remember I was telling you how awesome the Mets Complete Illustrated History is and how you should buy it? (especially if last night’s under $20 price is still there)
Well, I got to the 1994 page and saw THIS
WHAT?
WHEN?
THIS HAPPENED?
Now for me…1994…let’s see, I was really into my new girlfriend (you know her as Mrs. Mets Police) and I had gotten a full-time job, and the Mets sucked and we didn’t have the internet, so I could see how I missed this….
…but in 3 full years of blogging and ranting about how Mr. Met Prime (you can see him in the museum) is way cooler than Swishy (the modern faux-Mr. Met) not one of you mentioned this.
WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME?
I kind of like him better than Swishy, and I’ll you one thing – Mr. Met 1.5 would never charge you to print out tickets at home.
