Mets Police Stadiums Week Day Six: Washington Nationals Park Continued

We’re back at Nationals Park, once again thanks to Tom.

The park looks pretty nice in these photos, I may have to take a road trip next spring.

It’s time for some sort of race. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Mr. Met run.  He probably is rehabbing his hamstring.

Gotta admit, the Nats HR department is doing a good job.  They have hired some quality assistants. #09 there looks like a good employee in these shots.

A UFO?  Burgers?  Looks like something you’d find in downtown LA.

Washington also has one of those “statues” that the Pirates invented.  Someone tell Jeffy.

My Yankee friend Mr. Sunshine will be pleased to know there’s a Five Guys.   You could get him to go anywhere for a Five Guys.

My eyes are getting bad, but no obstructed views jump out at me.

(searching for joke…)

We’ve been walking around..let’s check the scoreboard…oh it’s 7-0 Nats and the Mets are being one hit.  Shocking!

Gary Cohen Talks Slightly Less Than Michael Kay (WSJ)

Fun stuff here comparing the number of words each baseball announcer uses per minute.

Michael Kay and Gary Cohen are on the low end.  Vin Scully is the chattiest.

What does it all mean?  Nothing.  The Mets are like 17 games out, I’m down to overanalyzing Citibank Mets ads and sharing stuff like this.

More Overanalyzing The New York Mets Citibank Ad

This morning’s MLB email blast is inviting us to buy fan bricks.  As part of the email they included the Citibank ad again (see left).

Look at the father and son…now I really think they just photoshopped in Generic Stadium Crowd because why would Citi and the Mets use actual Mets fans at Citi Field?

Anyways…


The Citi Field Fanwalk is expanding outside the Jackie Robinson Rotunda to include a new offering of bricks that will be installed along the first and third base sides of the Rotunda for the 2010 season.


Order your brick TOMORROW at 8:00am on mets.com

Citi Field Fanwalk: Amazin’ Moments
 will provide fans the opportunity to recognize their families, friends, and favorite Mets moments within a new area of the Fanwalk that will graphically honor some of the greatest moments in Mets history.

Every order includes an exclusive brick replica for a great keepsake.

All net proceeds benefit charity through the Mets Foundation.

Deadspin Kills The New York Mets Again

I’m not sure how many of y’all read Deadspin (even though it’s one of the biggest sites out there) but this is fun:
The 2009 Mets: A Season Of Failure – it’s a collection of photos and videos to remind us all what an awful season it has been.

Among the fun is this “walk off error”

Speaking of 2009 – does anyone still care?  I’m noticing that comments are way down – and why that may be a function of my site being lame, I notice they are down on Metsblog too.  Has everyone headed off to the NFL?

Also from Deadspin, don’t miss last week’s Why Your Stadium Sucks: Citi Field.   Don’t worry, they do it for everyone.

Notice how the Yankee Stadium home run problem went away once the Yankees opened up a 7 game lead? Now it’s “part of their game.”   I was chatting with Mr. Sunshine the Yankee Fan and we were talking about how nobody complains about the 3 of 5 ALDS in the years where the Yankees win, but when they lose to the Angels suddenly it needs to be a 7 game series.  I think the DS should be 7, and each team should just schedule two Sunday doubleheaders to even out the schedule.  They could play one of those doubleheaders on the Sunday into the All-Star break and it would not be disruptive.
