What Mets fans talk about when not talking about the actual games.
Did Santa bring you this?
This custom 59FIFTY® fitted cap features a (raised) embroidered New York Mets team logo on front, fleece ear flaps with Velcro closure at chin strap, and a embroidered New Era® flag at wearer’s left side with Major League Baseball® logo at rear. Other details include water repellent, all season comfort and improved durability. Interior includes branded taping as well as a moisture absorbing sweatband.
From January 2010…so so bizarre.
To recap, Bay spoke for what seemed like 30 seconds, then Dave Howard said there would be a special presentation…and the Mets, always focused on building their brand, had Rod Gilbert come up and hand him a Rangers jersey to remind him that the Rangers beat the Canucks in 1994.
Media Goon saw this one.
It might not be bad civilian wear if not for the unnecessary black. Black is awful. Ruins all Mets attire.
Kids, I know you’re sick of me telling you about the Good Old Days when the Mets lost 95 games every year…buy Uncle Faith & Fear is a better story teller, and wants to tell you about Jerry Koosman in 1970 (and even mentions a television show called M*A*S*H that you’ve never heard about, as F&F triple flashbacks to 1997, 1983 and 1970).
Charles Wang did a radio interview yesterday and said he doesn’t want to sell the Islanders and that he’d like the team to stay close enough so he could “commute” and mentioned Suffolk or “Queens.”
Interesting.
Now if you were to combine a Citi Field NHL Winter Classic with an announcement of a new hockey arena on 126th and you might have something.
On the other hand, I was talking about 9/11 with Beloved Daughter this morning and I still find it fascinating that there are two new baseball stadiums (one unnecesary), a completely unnecessary football stadium, one and a half hockey/hoops arenas and yet nothing built downtown. Priorities.

Oh, and I’m having Facebook Friends anxiety again. Like me.
