The Mets didn’t show up for their final game in San Francisco, despite the fact they were on National TV.
And the San Francisco finally beat the Mets 2-0.
More interesting then Mike Pelfrey’s three balks was the fact the Mets Organization has sent out uniform surveys to Mets fans asking about all sorts of cool things.
Mets Police is reporting that a survey has been sent to some Mets fans:
- Should the team keep their black uniform jerseys.
- Should they wear the white pinstripes more often for home games
- Should the Mets try white jerseys with an interlocking “NY”
- Should the Mets try blue jersey with an interlocking “NY”
- Name of Bridge at CitiField
- Questions about the Mets Baseball caps
Wanna Take the Survey? This is the Internet so anything is possible, Here’s the Mets Uniform Survey
In My Honest Opinion:
- Get Rid of the Black Uniforms. They are awful for so many reasons, most of which are mentioned in the survey.
- Wear the White Pinstripes. The Mets look great in pinstripes and they are a bit of a throwback look.
- Blue caps are the best. KISS, keep it simple stupid. That looks great. Again get rid of anything black.
- Lots of good options for the Bridge. I like that you can write in your own. I wrote in Doc Crossing.

Shame the mets lost last night. I’m a fan of the black jerseys…why the hate?

Black color isn’t part of the Mets history. Just one of many reasons. How about this theory. Black absorbs all the colors of the spectrum, which is why it is the hottest color to wear. In fact, wearing black fatigues you faster then wearing any other color. Day in and day out this may have an affect on the long term energy of the team. The Mets have collapsed the last two Septembers. This extra fatigue may have added to the issues the Mets had late in both of the last two seasons.

Keep black for Spring Training. No on the interlocking NY. Blue jersey?! These people are overthinking things. One good aspect to this – they’re considering what fans would like instead of just springing a bad idea on us. They might think something is great and just fine (Inaugural Season logo) when fans think it’s the worst thing ever. Morons. Hmm… if politicians asked us first, maybe we wouldn’t be so mad at them. So credit can be given for asking us our opinion.
