The Mets Police: Here comes Knight

Here comes Knight

1986 mets

I had a few beers last night and decided to watch (again) "Seasons: 1986" on MLB TV.

I don't care how many times I watch Game 6, I get nervous when there's two outs in the 10th, I still can't believe the rally as I watch it, and I'm not exaggerating here, even last night when I watched "Buckner" I got choked up. Really did.. It really is amazin' to watch.

Scully's call is poetry. Even on the printed page:

Little roller up along first

Behind the Bag!

It gets through Buckner

Here comes Knight!

The video below isn't new, but it shows how amazing the rally is. If you've never seen it before sit through the videogame version, and even if you have, you'll enjoy hearing Vin Scully.

Does anyone anywhere have a picture of the scoreboard displaying "Congratulations Red Sox?" That's like my holy grail (or maybe I suck at Google).

In other news...there was a Mets Yearbook on SNY last night, I missed it but I did ask the DVR to tape 1963 and I think 1968 (those either were on at 1am or are on at 1pm today). 1975 is on at 6:30 tonight.

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!
