Some of the more veteran ticket holders have gotten the invitation to fill out a survey about what tickets they would like in the new stadium, but if you know your log-in you can fill it out now.

(EAST RUTHERFORD) – The “Mets Police” today announced they were placing a curse on the Evil Money Grubbing Football Giants Of New Jersey.

The Curse of The PSL’s will remain in effect for the remainder of the Giants tenure at Giants Stadium, and for the entire lifetime of “New Meadowlands Stadium.”   The Curse of The PSL’s is punishment for being completely disrespectful of their fanbase in 2008.

The Curse shall cause the Giants to never ever win the Super Bowl until “New Meadowlands” is torn down.   No transfer of ownership will lift the curse, so the team should stay in the losing hands of the present ownership forever.   They will have their money, but they shall have no additional rings.

The Mets Police decided not to place a similar curse on the Jets because (a) they met the fanbase half-way and (b) they have enough curses on them already and (c) the Jets will never make a Super Bowl anyway so it would be impossible to tell if the curse worked.

I have Yankees tickets.  All season long I have been selling them.  Made some nice coin.

I have Mets tickets.  You can barely give them away.  I jump on stubhub (don’t get mad at me, visit mets.com and they are begging you to post tickets – somebody is getting rich on this) and tickets are going for face.

September 7th vs the Phillies.  Sure the child hating ESPN made it a night game, but it’s still a big game.  You can get a seat for $10.   Ten.

Every day I get emails from the Mets inviting me to get Pennant packs and to Show Up At Shea and whatever else they can think of.  Of course I could go all Mushnick here and mention that they bait-and-switch (Mr. Mets dash – oh psyche we moved the game to 8) – but in theory this is a good team and you’d think people would want to go?

Or are there just 40,000 Mets fans and we all have tickets?

Memo to Johan Santana:

This is why the Mets got you.

You’ve been pitching well, but just as the Yankees needed A-Rod to get a hit with the bases loaded last night, the Mets need you to win and go as deep as you can.

You don’t want to come to town in first and leave 1.5 back.

You know the bullpen sucks (sucks would be an upgrade at this point) and you know the starting pitcing is you and a not-quite-rookie and some wishful thinking.

These are the games that help determine if you become “Ray Knight” or “Bobby Bonilla” in franchise lore.

The Former Franchise not only was able to show up at Shea last week but now he is visiting firehouses.
