Mets Buttons #1: Gary Carter, Dave Kingman

Welcome to a new off-season filler series called METS BUTTONS.

My friend Mike sent me a bunch of pictures from his collection. Could I post them all today in one post? Yeah I could….but I have 5 more weeks until Mickey Hodges tells some poor kid he’s late at camp and I need filler.

An interesting collection below.   While most of you will be drawn to Gary Carter, I love the Kingman button!

There will be more of these posts in the next few weekdays (sometimes bloggers need to work and this pre-post things) but for now savor these.

And be cool like Mike SEND ME STUFF.  I almost raided my closet to show you every cap I have.   Shannon at MetsPolice dot com for submissions.

Thanks Mike!

Mets Police Morning Laziness: rest of world notices Omar says No Cespedes, and notices Wayne in radio booth

Is it Groundhog day already?  Everyone is going with Stuff We Knew.

SLACKISH REACTION:  As I go through he the news it looks like the rest of the world noticed that Omar put it out there that Cespedes won’t play this season – you may have noticed that in yesterday’s Morning Laziness – and then there was a lot of Also Us content (I used to call that Me Too but that phrase seems to have changed) – and the AAIMBR realized THE METS NEED ANOTHER OFer.  Welcome to the party pal!  Wait until you realize Wags has you conned.

Also everyone woke up to the “news” that Wayne was taking over for Josh Lewin.  Did we not know that for like two months already?   But again what happens is one site writes it and everyone else Also Us’s it.

NOT LINKING:  Another example of Us Also will be how everyone today will pick up on Terry Francona saying he thinks Mickey Hodges will have a great year!  Who gives a hoot?

Terry Francona, please.  Do you remember when Salt and Pepper was a thing?

The Mets want you to be on their social media board.

Mets Puzzle plus good joke.

I need coffee.

Mets want you to be on their Social Media Fan Board whatever that is

Hmmm saw this…

Should you click that you come to

The Mets are looking for passionate, social savvy fans to take part in a group that will be able to provide input to the organization focused on the team’s social media brand. Sound like fun? Think you have what it takes? Apply below.

And then you apply and stuff.

So…not hating…not saying its cool….but it does seem confusing

HOWEVER….

The guy who runs Mets social is the guy who used to run Devils social and he CRUSHED IT with the Devils, so I will be Five Mets Bucks that this is a good thing.
