Brooklyn Cyclones Jersey Thursday: Backman tonight

The Cyclones are giving away Backman jerseys tonight.

While we’re in Cyclones mode, Anthony sent this in.

Check out the attached photo of the jerseys the Cyclones wore on June 28th – I’m thinking these should be adopted as their new home jerseys.

I don’t even know what their jersey looks like these days.  I’ve never made it out to Coney Island and deep down I kind of want to be a zillionaire (after I event the holodeck) and move the Cyclones to Los Angeles just to watch people freak out.  I have some weird fantasies.

Hey Dan Twohig – you’re the Cyclones Guy.  Whip up a Cyclones Uniform History when you get a shot.

Is that Backman design what they wear?   I don’t need the city name on the front.  I know where you play.

Enjoy the Mets before two weeks of late starts

I think we’re all enjoying this season of Ike and Niese and DW and Reyes and the Great Santana Debates and being Proud of Pelfrey.

I bring you bad news.

Next week: no Mets games on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

Thursday and Friday 10pm starts. 9pm on Saturday. 4pm on Sunday.

Thats an entire week of crappy start times.

It gets worse.

Three 9:40’s, two 10:10’s and two 4:10’s on the weekend.

To really make it annoying, an off day on the 26th.

I go to bed early, and I have a life on the weekend. It may be July 27th before I can enjoy a game after this weekend.

It’s hot. I’m heading home to savor a Mets game and enjoy future Hall of Famer Jon Niese off one of his 287 career wins. LGM!

Wednesday, July 7
vs. Cincinnati

Jose Reyes – SS
Angel Pagan – CF
David Wright – 3B
Ike Davis – 1B
Jason Bay – LF
Josh Thole – C
Jesus Feliciano – RF
Alex Cora – 2B
Jonathon Niese – LHP

The Mets jersey in the Yankee Museum!

Uh oh, someone go find Hank Steinbrenner!

There is a Mets jersey in the Yankees Museum at Fake New Yankee Stadium (that’s what FNYS is if you ever see me write FNYS on twitter).

How did it get there, and what is it? That’s Dan’s story to tell on 11th and Washington (Honor Among Bloggers) and he even has a picture.

This never would have happened when George was running the show.
