New York Mets: The Dominoes Pizza of Baseball

Both the Yankees and Mets are moving into new stadiums this year, so both have added special patches to the sleeves of their jerseys. The Yankees patch looks great. The Mets patch looks like a hotel key card at Howard Johnson’s. Here’s what uni-watch says: So let’s skip the metaphors and jokes and just proceed straight to the simple, declarative truth: This is the worst sleeve patch in MLB history.

Quick Notes


Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo is on the Encore channel, and I can’t miss a moment of it. It’s simply too nuanced of a film to miss a moment or I’m going to be lost, so I’m gonna be brief. First of all, great to see everybody after a couple of weeks off. A couple of quick notes. Over the weekend, I’m finally gonna get back to working on the year in review and have it posted. As for Quizzo Bowl, we’re still looking at February 21st, though it hasn’t been finalized quite yet. In other news, the Chip Chantry One Man Show is on Monday at the Khyber. There is also a bowling party on January 24th in South Philly. I’ll have more details Monday. And Go Eagles!
