The Mets Police

Yep, this is a rerun from the off-season, before all this black and white stuff and the temple and Jacob and all that – but it’s still fun and it’s my last chance to use it.

Is the plan to win or give the impression of trying?

Don’t forget, Citi Field tours start next weekend.

And next weekend the Mets will wear horribly ugly Stars and Stripes caps.

Here’s the video of Keith sleeping during a game – since then he has said he was pretending.

The folks over at Citi2Shea wonder if it’s fair to charge more for handicapped seats.

Don’t forget we have a Blue Cap Army meeting on Tuesday.

We’re hanging out and complaining about McCarver on Twitter…it’s a good hang if you’d like to join.  I’m @metspolice, just follow me and I’ll keep you looped.

Walt pulled the data below in response to a fellow fan’s question:

@FormerDirtDart: Mets Uni’s HM: 3-2 in Pins, 5-3 in Blu/Wht, 3-4 in Hybrd/Wht, 3-0 in Blk/Wht,  RD: 5-11 in Hybrd/Gry, 1-3 in Blk Gry

In case you’re wondering – I am watching the game.  Mrs. Mets Police is hogging the upstairs TV, I’m in a gutted basement, sitting in a lawn chair, breathing in who-knows-what – but I hooked the TV back up.
