The Dopey Football Picks Car Ad In The Post

You know that dopey football picks car ad that's in the Post every Friday? Yeah you do. The one that tries to be funny.

Stop.

Cut it out guys.

It's so lame week after week and it's obvious that the bald guy with the goatee wants attention even more than this absurd blog.

It's obvious that he's convinced the other guys to pool their money for a big car ad.

Yeah you got me talking about you after 15 years but guess what: I just put the Post down to write this and I have no idea what kind of car you guys sell.

Week after week and you've made zero impression on my brain.

While I'm killing car ads – there's another guy who advertises on the radio and his commercial is 100 TIMES LOUDER THAN EVERYTHING ELSE. I turn the station every time I hear it and guess what….

I can't think of what kind of car they sell either.

Mets Diss the Mets Police

I saw this headline….

New York Mets Bloggers tour pre-wrecking ball Shea Stadium

So I read further:

Nice video piece on the demolition of Shea Stadium by SNY Mets bloggers Ted Berg and Matt Cerrone. Amog the highlights: The seats are gone, there’s no outfield wall and someone has made off with the home run apple.

Just wondering…are people who work for SNY really “bloggers?”  I mean no disrespect to their work, and Mets Police will whore out for a paycheck in a second….but I don’t know that these guys are “bloggers.”   If David Wright has a blog is he a Mets “blogger.”

I don’t think so.

Anyway Mets, I’m kind of hurt we weren’t invited.

Shocking Video! Mr. Met Is Secretly Human Male!

If you dare watch this video (spoilers!) you will learn the truth that Mr. Met is a human male.

Long believed to be some sort of baseballoid, Mr. Met is in fact human.

Some of us were hoping that there was secretly a hot chick in the costume (don’t ask) but it’s not.

It’s a dude.

Why Fox Why?

I Think Philly Has The Team We Want

I’m in Clark Kent mode and haven’t had much time but some quick thoughts:

I think the Phillies have the team Mets fans want.  As an outsider it seems like a bunch of scrappy guys, a homegrown hero or two and a shortstop who is actually good and not a stat accumulator.

I’m sure Fox is thrilled at the prospect of Phillies-Rays.  I like the Rays and all but that combination and 8:30 starts isn’t going to get me to switch off the dvr.

I don’t want to be Mushnick Junior but I observe that Son of Mets Police has watched zero innings of the playoffs.   I’ve watched about two.  I just don’t care.

So Willie might go to the Yankees huh?  Girardi might want to open the new new stadium 15 and 0.

Willie might go to the Nats huh?  That won’t be awkward at all for Manny Acta and his last place team.

Cyclones Fan suggested the Mets Police sponsor a brick at Citi Field.   They are sold out.  I’m kinda amazed the Mets won’t sell more.

How long until Citibank merges or gets bought and the Mets wind up playing in Horribly Named Stadium?
