Strawberry’s Bar and Grill

I was flip flopping all day yesterday if I was going to go to Strawberry’s last night to watch the game. The7Line.com was hosting the party over there and he and Randy from Readtheapple.com convinced me to go.

First forty people to show up got wristbands for free beer and after the keg was gone from that we got to enjoy Happy Hour drinks special for the remainder of the game. Darren of the 7Line set up shop at one end of the bar with his merchandise. Good quality shirts by the way. I picked myself up the Neon Catcher shirt from Shea.There was also give aways during the game of Daryl Strawberry autographed 8×10’s and an autographed baseball.

As for Strawberry’s itself, it has some cool memorabilia and the food was pretty good. I had philly cheesesteak egg rolls and some mac and cheese. Both great. Randy and Mrs. Readtheapple had a huge shrimp platter that they enjoyed.
I have to say it was nice to meet Darren of the 7 line and Mrs Read the Apple.

Mets Win

I was at  Strawberry’s Bar and Grill last night watching the game. It was nice to hear Mets fans cheering for their team and not yelling about how Beltran is selfish and lazy. Well Randy from Readtheapple.com actually was yelling out Hashtag Blame Beltran mockingly.

I am not going to recap the game because you probably watched the game or found box scores already. The one point Terry Collins came out to dispute the hit batter, I thought Colactus was going to rear his head.Even though the Mets lost the lead , I still felt that they were going to win. Call me Crazy if you want.

I will be posting pics from the party at Strawberry’s last night that was hosted by the 7line.com later today when I finally really wake up.

SNY Off Dish Network

If you any of you guys have Dish Network be glad you missed that game last night. Still no word on when or if SNY and Dish Network might reach a deal.
I really hate negotiating tactics like this. All it does is hurt the fans while SNY and Dish Network makes more money in the long run. I am all for companies making money but don’t screw over your consumer.

Updates to follow.

Is the Black Uniform Evil?

Silly post time. This was inspired for me to put together by a comment the other day to The Secret horrible origins of…The Black Mets Uniforms.

Brian says-I personally think the black Mets outfits are like Spiderman’s black costume, and that they’re trying to eat the team alive. Kill them now while we still can.

1st pic- good Spidey in new duds.

2nd pic -uni becomes evil and wants to kill Spidey.

3rd pic- the uni attaches to Colactus.

I think Brian is onto something.

What’s In Your Collection?

Shannon posts “What’s in your closet?” from time to time. Tom from 408 to Center sent us over some stuff. Heres what he had to say.

Happy opening day. When i got my ticket plan and the watch that came with it i realized i have a pretty nice collection of cool Mets stuff. Seeing all the “what’s in your closet” stuff on your site, I put this one up on mine. Thought you may dig it.

Here is my brick from Shea Stadium. I splurged for the $100 brick that at one time was in the field of play at Shea, before they added padding on the wall.

This is my Mike Piazza autographed baseball. Got this one in person. He was a cool dude.

.

And this is my pride and joy…my Edgardo Alfonzo autographed jersey, shadowboxed and haning on my wall. Fonzie is probably my all time favorite Met. I followed him when he was a minor leaguer all the way to the finish of his career. I wish things could have turned out better for him. But a bad back really derailed him. Either way he was a true professional who had a great approach at the plate. He signed it up the 1 in June of 2000 at a charity function.

Thanks Tom. Tom also has more on his blog. Click here to check it out.
