What Mets fans talk about when not talking about the actual games.
I mean sure PJ himself could write the $500 check, but Steve should just do it and get some nice easy free positive press. After all, why not be a hero…and for $500, think what it could pay off in Casino Good Will.
Hey @MetsMemorabilia can I just have this back instead of selling it? Pretty special to me as you can imagine pic.twitter.com/sn4BPbSZav

Wow this is so…..lame? If they hadn’t hyped it for three weeks it would be fine but jeez…Steve, I guess you really do have money to burn. Also, Francisco Lindor booed the Mets fans, why would you include him>

$50? Even Media Goon will only get two.
The Mets are very excited about this!

And there was a time, around 1982, when Diamondvision coming to Shea was exciting. (As kids, remember watching The Bad News Bears play in the Astrodome and being jealous of their scoreboard)
However, times change. Baseball has gotten slllllloooowww. The average game ws 3:09 last year, and most of that three hours is strikeouts, walks, and waiting for Pete Alonso to hit a HR every 4 days, which really isn’t that exciting if you think about it. Yay, three seconds of buzz and back to the strikeouts. Compare that to a Whitey Herzog era rally, which was constant action.
Anyway, the Mets have a new scoreboard. Yay? To show replays of what….strikeouts? Lindor booing the fans? To deliver more ads? (yes). Is this going to make me want to drive 75 minutes, pay $30 to park or whatever, and get a $15 Nathans combo that doesn’t come with a drink (your actual experience may vary). No thanks.
Wow, baseball really hates its fans.
