Love the new banner and info on that fan. Was hoping to find out more lol. Been waiting for Gelbs to get out there.
Oh, I can't read the article. Any fun bits?Meanwhile, at Newsday...
Meet the Mets fan bringing wild fashion and good luck to Citi Field
"People love something unique and fun and Max is both of them," said Commack-based t-shirt maker Dan Abramswww.newsday.com
It's a pretty short article so there isn't much. It mostly recaps the story so far.Oh, I can't read the article. Any fun bits?
And just catching what that dweeb said. FFS, hope he never covers Jets history.
Laura Albanese said:Wiener is a lifelong Mets fan whose parents have a 20-pack of season tickets. He has six ostentatiously colored fur coats, buys his clothes at thrift stores, and has been dressing like this since about sophomore year of college, he said. His goal is to radiate positivity, and hopefully experience a championship in his lifetime. His style icons are David Bowie, Rick James and Elton John. The last time he was shown on the scoreboard, Alonso hit another home run.
His favorite coat is the mint green one, but he has a burgundy, purple and yellow one that he wants to wear when it gets colder again.
Very cool, thanks lol.It's a pretty short article so there isn't much. It mostly recaps the story so far.
This was probably the best bit:
So basically a dude ("comedian") who has been dressing like this for ages, likes the Mets, and was on "citivision" before Alonso hit a homer... twice. Went a bit viral on Twitter, got a t-shirt from AthleteLogos out of it, and the rest is history.

So happy to see Martino get cooked. Please allow people to have a little fun (for something as harmless as this) in Mets land as it doesn't come around that often.
NP!
He is getting torn to shreds in the replies and in subsequent tweets.The funny thing about this tweet is that Max Wiener, the "Rally Pimp" himself, doesn't really view his character as a pimp and the large jackets he wears are women's clothes. Not to mention Martino himself was defensive of Wilpon when he ran into misconduct allegations against a female employee. Anyway, dumb post from Martino which isn't an uncommon occurrence.
Yeah, I didn't really get a pimp vibe. Just a good vibes version of Jim Morrison as I described him pages back.The funny thing about this tweet is that Max Wiener, the "Rally Pimp" himself, doesn't really view his character as a pimp and the large jackets he wears are women's clothes.

Oh wow that totally reminded me...Went to my first Mariners game of the season yesterday and had the MitchWich sandwich… it was so disappointing. At least they won, but I got my hopes up too much.
Disappointing first start for Leiter but I'll take the series win.
:OOh wow that totally reminded me...
Twitter darling, the "rainbow cookie egg roll," completely exceeded the hype. Loved it!
It was this shifty looking motherfucker.
It's really really badSo the Mets CC leaks were real. Not a fan of the jersey but like the cap; picked one up.
I'm OK with the Yankees never getting one of these.So the Mets CC leaks were real. Not a fan of the jersey but like the cap; picked one up.
Yeah. But they almost all are.
They do opt out of anything "fun" but in this case they probably made the right choice. Oakland too, but that's just because Fisher don't care and probably didn't want to outlay the money (despite the potential returns). Maybe they'll do it when they're situated in Vegas. Doubtful anyone will remember or care about City Connect in 2028.
Two-year "design by committee" process = a bland, generic charcoal smudge. At least we're getting Mercury Mets jerseys this year too!the CC were a cool idea, but I have no idea why they almost never even attempt to retain some part of the team's original design/color identity. Most of them end up looking like generic nondescript jerseys you'd find at the flea market. Nothing about that jersey says "Mets" in anyway.
I like the jersey, the cap could do with some adjusting in my opinion, but I think this is an overall good city connect.So the Mets CC leaks were real. Not a fan of the jersey but like the cap; picked one up.
Complete Failure screams Mets to me.the CC were a cool idea, but I have no idea why they almost never even attempt to retain some part of the team's original design/color identity.

Each night in the bullpen, the Braves relievers who are available that night will stay physically and mentally ready for anything. As the game progresses, they go through their routines to stay ready for any situation.
There is one important part of this process that most of them cannot go without. You likely do not see it with your own eyes, but it is fuel for the moment.
Here's a hint: It gives them wings.
"You can't have greenies anymore like they could back in the day," Tyler Matzek said. "So we're stuck with caffeine, and Red Bull is a good way to get it, so we just drink some Red Bulls."
Red Bull, an energy drink, is, well, not the healthiest option. It is loaded with caffeine and sugar. On its website, though, Red Bull claims one can of its drink has as much caffeine as one cup of coffee.
The relievers want extra juice and energy in an efficient way. So on nights they pitch, most of the Braves' relievers will snag a Red Bull from a fridge, whether it be in the clubhouse or out in the bullpen.
"You can only drink so much coffee without feeling full or stuff like that," Jesse Chavez said. "But it depends. If we're up, we have a Red Bull. If we're down, we don't have anything. You know what I mean? So we just try to pick and choose because you can only have so many Red Bulls before you get an ulcer."
then how will we see the sunset and mountains? (the only reason to go to a Rockies game currently, minus cheap beer)
They don't. Send Tim Apple a few bucks, he is probably starving.How does Apple make money with all these free trials they keep giving me?
