Mets to wear NEW YORK jerseys tomorrow.

 

The Mets plan to alter their home white uniforms for tomorrow's Sept. 11 remembrance. Rather than "Mets," the script across the front of the jerseys will read "NEW YORK" to represent the city. The jerseys will also be tweaked to reflect the style and colors of the 2001 version.

My buddy Dave put this on my radar.

 

@metspolice @Mediagoon @TezzaCFS tell me it’s not a black shadow drop? https://t.co/ubuAR7Ua8L

If they do have dropshadow on Snow white pines jerseys that say New York on them, I am fine with it. It is a jersey that is representing what the Mets were wearing at the time in September of 2001. It is one of those special type of one off jerseys that they should wear for special games. 

What an ugly Mets Cap!

 

Wear a piece of New York Mets history with this Shea Stadium Final Season Gold Undervisor 59FIFTY hat. With bold contrasting embroidery dedicated to the New York Mets that pops against the solid black crown, this New Era hat is a true showcase of team pride. Best of all, its solid, fitted construction ensures it's always game day ready.

If you want this monstrosity go to Lids.

Mets Membership plans?

 

Ticket plans are now called memberships? Why the change? I don’t get this “rebranding”. It’s not making me want to get a plan again. Does this speak to anyone? Maybe I am turning into the old man yelling at the clouds.
