Are Mets below ticket projections? New scheme is $5 Tuesdays

I have been doing this a long time. The Mets aren’t doing this because they are cool.

Nimmo in mysterious hotel fall

ESPN reports:

 New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo missed Monday night’s game against the Washington Nationals after fainting in his hotel room overnight and hitting his head when he fell.

Nimmo said he woke up not feeling well around 5:15 a.m. He went to the bathroom, cramped up and fainted. When he came to and got up from the floor, he was bleeding from the head and wasn’t sure why. He called the Mets’ trainers, who went to his room to assist him.

Was there a better Mets City Connect Design to be had?

Remember when we thought the jerseys were going to be purple?  Would that have been better?

Imagine something like the below with a different cap and numbers that match the letters here.

BTW I was in LA recently and out there the nomenclature is “Line”   One takes the E Line to Santa Monica for example.

The Mets must have hired some West Coasties in marketing because their whole “If You Know NYC….” campaign was exposed when they started talking about the 7 Line as a subway.

The 7 Line IS an apparel company.

Real New Yorkers take The 7 TRAIN.  They take the Flushing Line.  They do not take the 7 Line as that’s a thing you wear not ride.

Do you take the 4 Line to Fake New Yankee Stadium?  You do not.

Is the song Take The A Line?  It is not

If you actually know New York, you know.

 

Give blood, get Mets t-shirt (PLUS let’s over analyze the M)


Giving blood is super important and something I regularly do.  Now it looks like you can get a Mets t-shirt.  I got this email because I’m on the lists.

Some lop-sided looking Mets script there.  The left tail on the M is elevated.  Where’s Paul Lukas when I need him?

This post started out with me wanting to encourage you to give blood, but now I am intrigued.

 Yeah that M is clearly up in the air a bit.  Here’s wha I’d expect it to look like.  If we rotated the Mets word mark below, that M middle would dip as would the curl on the left

Now on jerseys where the tail of the M meets the e…. we can see what the slope should look like.
