The Mets Police: 17 Years Later I'd Still Rather Have David Cone Than Jeff Kent

17 Years Later I'd Still Rather Have David Cone Than Jeff Kent

August 27, 1992. I call my friend Juan from Jones Beach. "Holy cow they traded Cone!"

The they was the Mets, and what they got back were two bums Ryan Thompson and possible Hall of Fmer Jeff Kent. Thompson was just useless, Kent was one of those guys that was just plain unlikeable.

January 21, 2009. Jeff Kent announces he will retire. As I said all those years when Kent was putting up MVP numbers, I would still rather have David Cone.

If You're Visiting For The First Time

If you are visiting The Mets Police for the first time, welcome.

This blog aims to be a little different. We're less likely to complain about a pitching change than we are likely to complain about what the pitcher was wearing.

We're about Mets history and tradition. We'd like to see a Seaver statue at Citi Field. We'd like the black uniforms to go away. We'd like the team to always treat the fans with respect.

We're just regular old Mets fans like you who have migrated from the uppers to the Promenade where we were saddened when we found plexiglass. Finally, for all our complaining we just want the franchise to win the World Series (while nicely dressed).

The site is updated several times a day, usually morning, noon, and night (cliche but true) with other items as they come in.

Mets Police in no way claims to be news nor accurate, including anything to which we link. It's just a blog. Read the blog and/or take our advice at your own risk.

We strongly encourage everyone to support the New York Mets and their business partners, just don't wear a black jersey while doing so.

Welcome!
