Go Mets. One issue I have with marketing in MLB is the color black in the uniforms. The Mets, Royals, Reds, and others don't have black as a primary color and now everybody is selling out putting black in the the uniforms! I know it dresses up the uniform but whatever happened to tradition? To me the Royals are blue and white, Mets blue and orange - it's becoming to faddish to add black to uniforms! I look at the retro Met unis compared to the ones today and it makes me sick!
Go Mets! Go retro!
p.s. baseball was meant to be played indoors, on the turf, and in Canada - I miss the Expos!

Reason #5346 why Bud Selig should be canned:
Yet another year with the traditional season opener highjacked from Cincinnati.
But not even hope springing eternal can convince me to have much faith in my Reds this season.
Now the Astros could be interesting. Rookies all over the place in a division where there is no room for error.
BTW - It appears highest dollar Carlos has picked up right where he left off before he sold his soul to the Mets.

The Mets drive you nuts? ?? Try being a Pirates fan! 12 consecutive losing season and we get walloped by the lowly Milwaukee Brewers on opening day. Its tough being in a sport where the small market teams dont even have a prayer.

The Pirates have nearly the same operating revenue of the Reds. And yet we manage to remain semi-respectable about every other year.
That said, revenue-sharing should've been done years ago.
Viva Adam Dunn! Perhaps the Mets should have saved a few of the bucks they blew on Beltran & Pete for some bullpen help.

Reason #5346 why Bud Selig should be canned:. What if I told you I have an autographed Bud Selig baseball in my collection. I know, I know, I don't like the way he has handled the game, but still, a nice collectible none the less. I am also excited to see the Orioles winning yesterday. Hopefully the nationals can start winning too. What a great time to be a baseball fan in the DC area. Gnats, Orioles and minor league baseball.

I'm not sure our national's capital deserves that many losers in one area. But then again ...
