Mets Billboard guys reveal their anti-Wilpon and Katz design

MetsBillboard.com has gone live and is displaying this image.  This is the fan effort to encourage the Wilpons (and Katz) to move along.

I personally think they should have waited a week until the mainstream media wasn’t focused on Snowpocalypse, and you have no shot with the sports media all in Arizona talking to Joe Montana about vitamins or whatever the hell goes on at Radio Row.

A week from tomorrow when the NFL is done, the local NBA is irrelevant, there seems to be a ban on discussing hockey…plenty of time to get media attention.

Anyway, between that and my earlier advice about Powerpoint presentations, I’m sure the anti-Wilpon crowd loves me as much as the pro-Wilpon crowd loves me for posting this.

Wait until the word Castergine starts generating Google Alerts.  Things should be pretty interesting on 126th Street.

True New Yorkers post presentation on why baseball should oust the Wilpons

fred wilpon

I think last week’s announcement that Fred Wilpon is on the finance committee has “poked the bear” as I like to say.  There seems to me to be more anti-Wilpon talk than there had been recently.

A website using the URL True New Yorkers has posted a very lengthy very words presentation with some sort of case arguing baseball should oust the Wilpon-led ownership.

I personally found it to be too many words to read, and would encourage them to team up with someone who has good powerpoint graphic skills.  I wanted to read it but quickly got overwhelmed and moved on.

Anyway, if you would like to read it you can find it on their website.  The paragraph below is from the main page and explains their mission in their own words.

We believe that similarly, baseball must act swiftly in order to replace the Wilpons with an ownership group that has the financial strength, acumen, competence and credibility to restore the Mets as the competitive, entertaining, fan-friendly franchise that New York and Major League Baseball deserves.
