Mets Diss the Mets Police

I saw this headline….

New York Mets Bloggers tour pre-wrecking ball Shea Stadium

So I read further:

Nice video piece on the demolition of Shea Stadium by SNY Mets bloggers Ted Berg and Matt Cerrone. Amog the highlights: The seats are gone, there’s no outfield wall and someone has made off with the home run apple.

Just wondering…are people who work for SNY really “bloggers?” I mean no disrespect to their work, and Mets Police will whore out for a paycheck in a second….but I don’t know that these guys are “bloggers.” If David Wright has a blog is he a Mets “blogger.”

I don’t think so.

Anyway Mets, I’m kind of hurt we weren’t invited.

Shocking Video! Mr. Met Is Secretly Human Male!

If you dare watch this video (spoilers!) you will learn the truth that Mr. Met is a human male.

Long believed to be some sort of baseballoid, Mr. Met is in fact human.

Some of us were hoping that there was secretly a hot chick in the costume (don’t ask) but it’s not.

It’s a dude.

Why Fox Why?

I Think Philly Has The Team We Want

I’m in Clark Kent mode and haven’t had much time but some quick thoughts:

I think the Phillies have the team Mets fans want. Â As an outsider it seems like a bunch of scrappy guys, a homegrown hero or two and a shortstop who is actually good and not a stat accumulator.

I’m sure Fox is thrilled at the prospect of Phillies-Rays. Â I like the Rays and all but that combination and 8:30 starts isn’t going to get me to switch off the dvr.

I don’t want to be Mushnick Junior but I observe that Son of Mets Police has watched zero innings of the playoffs. Â I’ve watched about two. Â I just don’t care.

So Willie might go to the Yankees huh? Â Girardi might want to open the new new stadium 15 and 0.

Willie might go to the Nats huh? Â That won’t be awkward at all for Manny Acta and his last place team.

Cyclones Fan suggested the Mets Police sponsor a brick at Citi Field. Â They are sold out. Â I’m kinda amazed the Mets won’t sell more.

How long until Citibank merges or gets bought and the Mets wind up playing in Horribly Named Stadium?

Obama Messes With Baseball

Bad call by baseball to push back Game 6 of the World Series so that Fox can sell ad-time to a presidential candidate.

This isn’t about the election, this is about greed.

If Colgate offers Fox twice the money to push back game 7, I bet Fox would ask MLB to push that game back too.

Mets Police Junior has yet to watch an inning, and I’m not watching the ALCS right now because I’m going to bed.

Late starts will cost you the next generation of fans.

Tell Sen. Obama he can have 22 minutes not 30.
