The Hybrid Mets Cap Box

Fascinating video….tip of a blue cap to Uni Watch for posting this last week. Â Apparently this is how they pack up the hybrids.

I think I need to make like Burn Notice and dress up like the hat collector….then escape with the box to a nearby firepit.

As part of my financially-neutral position when it comes to critiquing the Mets, I could buy 35 replacement fitteds (blue).

If it costs me like $875 to rid the universe of these I’m in. Name the charity Jeff, I’ll write the check and I bet I can get a few other folks to donate.

Did I mention next year is the 50th season for the franchise? Â What a great time to go true-retro.

The Mets have been really cool with bloggers this year. Will sent over this survey from the Flushing Flash e-mail that he go this morning.

One of the questions was if you read blogs. The question right after it was which blogs do you read.

Niese Like Pitching Efforts Remembered

Hey gang. Media Goon here filling in for Shannon while he is wearing his road grays this week.

Here is something from Mark Simon of Mets Blog on ESPN NY.

In looking back onÂ Jonathon Niese’s one-baserunner shutout last Thursday night, we thought it would be appropriate to survey those who follow the Mets most, and ask them “What is your all-time favorite Mets pitching performance?”

Oh yeah, Shannon has a favorite NON SEAVER (Can you believe it?) pitching performance that he mentions in the article.

New Alternate Mets Caps for 2010 #15

Well friends, it’s the final installment of New for 2010 Alternate Caps.

I know, I know, 15 straight nights of this – how will you live without it. Â Don’t worry you will.

I have saved a good one for last. Â Ladies and Gentlemen, the inexplicable “Motto” cap.

New Alternate Mets Caps for 2010 #14

This “TC Tonal Ace” cap looks ok in the picture, might even look nice on your friend Steve. Â You do have a friend named Steve, right?

Anyway – this would look good on Steve unless he were actually a New York Met. Â If he were a Met I would complain about the NY not popping much like I do about the hybrid. Â It’s much better than the hybrid but suffers from a similar design flaw. Â I can’t see the NY. Â Sorry Steve.
