The Mets Police

Well this didn’t work as well as it might have.

 

Some classic Activision vibes here. with that rainbow stuff.  Way too much happening on this cap guys.

Not the worst design.  I am reminded some idiot decided to have the teams wear generic uniforms in last year’s game.  Boo.

I still don’t understand how the Side Patch Mafia has taken over the industry.  Side patches suck.

Also, do these colors scream Seattle?  No.

We need to start talking about this…

Without going full rant, that’s just not how we do scores in baseball.

No matter what you are going to win 40, lose 40 and then there are the other 82 games.  It’s baseball.  You’re going to lose sometimes.  You’re lucky if you only lose 1 in 3.  It’s OK Mets, the Cardinals outscored you, we can handle it.

Going up a level, I don’t know what’s broken over at Mets social media.  I don’t know if it is Tia’s husband (boy there sure are marketing her lately), or the new Communications boss or MLBAM or what, but it’s nowhere nearly as good as it used to be.

I have been paying attention to the quantity I have dubbed “cheesy social media intern”, this being the human or AI that generates such amazing posts as “McHits” – that entity I believe to be someone at Corporate MLB as I see that style of tweet showing up in recaps of other teams.  Likely someone just working a shift and they sometimes get assigned to Mets game.

Anyway @mets – Cardinals 8, Mets 7…it’s ok.  You aren’t fooling us.

OK kids – who can tell me what’s wrong here, and how we know the Mets social media team member who made this isn’t from around here….answer below

“The 7-Line” gives them away.

Now, obviously “The 7 Line” has entered the vernacular but that’s an apparel line for people who sit 500 feet from home plate, think “He Struck Him Out” is cool and leave early during playoff games.

But, in the big city, one does not take The 7 Line.  One takes “The Seven” or “The Seven Train”

Maybe you aren’t with me yet….

Would you ever tell someone to take the 4 Line to Yankee Stadium?  Did Duke Ellington record Take The A Line?   No and no.

Would you take the 7 line to 74th and transfer to the F Line?  No you would not.

So Mets social media person, you have been exposed as an out of towner!  No wonder you don’t understand that the Mets should not wear black.  Maybe the Las Vegas A’s are hiring.
