Most Popular Mets Police Articles This Week

Our weekly roundup of what people clicked on The Mets Police.

Tom O’Malley made the All-Irish Mets Team. The Mets celebrated with really hideous green, blue, black and orange caps.

Here’s Tons of Pics of Citi Field and 150 Pics of New Yankee Stadium but doesn’t New Yankee Stadium look drab?

NY1 posted this really good video of Citi Field but I’m still overly concerned about the dividerless urinals.

It has nothing to do with the Mets, and it went underreported in my opinion but The Rock said he did steroids.

Also underreported in Metsland was that Ollie Perez threw 85 pitches in a WBC game!

If you plan on trying to get Yankees tickets this week you may want to read the Tales of Buying Yankees Tickets at the pre-sale.

My man Lee Mazzilli made the Teas Rangers Worst 10 list.   From the Arlington perspective I can’t say I disagree.   As much as I loved Lee, that was a major fleecing.

A-Rod and Hookers? Maine Panic? $5 Yankee Tickets?

I find it really interesting that this may finally be the year that sports fans finally tell the pro leagues to go MOSFU (again that’s Mets Police code for a big f.u.)    

Selig is worried about the recession.

The Yankees are taking out full page ads to get people to buy tickets.

Now Mushnick is warning that Jets fans are moving upstairs to avoid PSLs, which may force those who used to have tickets upstairs all the way out of the stadium.

I try to stay away from the truly negative, so if you want to read about A-Rod and hookers , go for it.

Rule of Mets blogging mean I have to be the 10,000th blog to link to Daniel Murphy will bat second and to weigh in about Maine:

Calm down about Maine.  It’s the spring, just get your work in.  End of “Generic Maine had a bad start” article.

Should the Yankees let Jeter go?  Even if he’s at 2600+ hits?   Here’s a well thought out article. 
New Stadium Insider tells you how to get $5 tickets for Yankee games. 

Bondy can’e figure out why NYers don’t care about the WBC.  The answer Flip is that unless Wright and Jeter are wearing hats with NY on them we don’t care.  I’m watching the Mets now and feel like there’s a big hole at third.

Damn spring training game just played that awful Everybody Clap Your Hands clapclapclapclap crap.   The announcers clearly hate it.  I hate it.  You hate it.  Leave this one with the ruins of Shea and hire an organ player (which was one of my suggestions for New Traditions at C-Field. )

Santana looked good!

Lee Mazzilli: The Neighborhood Guys In The Outfield

Baseball Digest mentioned my beloved Lee Mazzilli:

As a center fielder, Mazzilli represented a link to the great New York baseball tradition: Italian roots (Joe DiMaggio), switch hitter (Mickey Mantle) and the basket catch (Willie Mays). In 1979, he looked like New York’s next big star by batting .303 with 15 home runs. Additionally, he represented the Mets in that year’s All-Star game, and homered. In 1980, he stole 41 bases, batted .280, hit 16 home runs and drove in 76 runs. However, his batting average fell to .228 in 1981, and was traded to the Texas Rangers for Ron Darling and Walt Terrell in the spring of 1982

Nice little piece you can check out here.
