The Mets Police: MLB Network Debuts Today

MLB Network Debuts Today

The MLB Network debuts today. "I like the idea of" it (as an old friend used to say) but information has been pretty sketchy. My cable system has yet to list the individual programs (that's you Fios) but overall it can't hurt.

Hopefully they'll do tons of live cut-ins (like what Sirius XM does with their football package) and maybe they will be the one's to dust off those old 1975 Mets highlight films.

I looked through the schedule posted on mlb.com and I'm seeing a lot of lame things like "2007 World Series Game 1." Come on guys, go a little deeper than that. Dig out some stuff from the 60's and 70's.

Information has been hard to get but the Times has this today:

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!
