What Mets fans talk about when not talking about the actual games.
Not very Jeter-like. Very Namath like. I don’t think Matt knows much about Jeter’s public persona.

So much to pay attention to today. Lawsuits. TV coverage or lack thereof. A yearly inability to solve the first responder caps (seems even more crazy when The7Line now has a deal with New Era, you’d think someone could work something out with FDNY). And of course this pesky detail about the off-season….
The truth is that the expectation within the organization is that the team’s payroll will again be in the range of $82-85 million, with $36 million of that, of course, absorbed by the salaries of two players, David Wright and Curtis Granderson.

Now MLB faces this reality: Jeff Wilpon sits on the board of directors for MLB Enterprises and MLB Network. The former group procures national broadcasting, sponsorship and licensing deals, and the latter is the public face of the sport. It’s one thing to have a reprobate in ownership; it’s another to give him a position of power in rooms where billion-dollar deals are negotiated.
Hello @mets,
You may or may not be looking to change the news cycle. I have an idea for you. WEAR THE CAPS.
Now I am just some dumb blogger and may not understand all the ins and outs, but as I read the uniform policy I see this..
Players will be subject to the following discipline schedule for violations of these Uniform Regulations:
a. First violation: the Senior Vice President, Standards and On-Field Operations will issue a Uniform Regulations Violation Warning, setting forth the provision of the Uniform Regulations that the Player has violated and specifying that the Player will be subject to further discipline if he does not immediately cease violating the Regulations
So take the field in the first responder caps.
If the umpire asks you to change do so. Let MLB be the bad guys.
If the umpire doesn’t ask you to change then play the game.
If the SVP issues a warning then you would be wise to heed the warning on 9/12. Don’t wear the caps on 9/12 because you will have been warned.
Seems easy enough.
