| Hair's to the World Series Mets Piscataway, N.J.: Voicer Carol Conran states that she could not watch a Mets game because of the long hair on some of the players, and that they should all look like the clean-cut Yankees. I personally would much rather watch a scruffy-looking player who can hit than the clean-cut Yankees’ limp bats, which have kept them away from a World Series for several years now. Let’s go Mets and good luck. |
| Like Samson Brooklyn: Am I sensing some sour grapes in Voicer Carol Conran’s statement about the Mets players with shoulder-length hair and beards a foot long? So her Yankees are clean-cut, and look like professional athletes? How are the Yankees doing in the postseason? Oh, yeah, they got beat in the wild card game against the Houston Astros. The New York Mets, some of them longhaired, beat the Dodgers, crushed the Cubs and are going to the World Series against the Royals. Go Mets! |
| Split-end zone Rockaway Beach: I agree with the Voicer who wrote that the Mets should have a hair code like the Yankees, but did she ever look at a football game? I didn’t know we had girls in the National Football League. |
| Test the bums Wilmington, Del.: I can’t believe that a bunch of light-hitting, no-pitching, sloppy fielding, last-place bums earlier this year could storm past the two top National League teams. There’s no way in hell that a team of no-names could come so far so fast, and they need to be investigated for foul play. Every Met player should first be tested and cleared for steroids and drugs before the first World Series pitch. |
| Badge of honor Bronx: In 1969, the Daily News gave out large buttons that read “GO METS” and had the paper’s logo at the bottom. The Mets won the World Series that year. I’m 85 years old now and wear my button with lots of pride. I know we can win it again. |
| Murphy’s view Little Neck: Daniel Murphy is as entitled to “disagree with the (gay) lifestyle 100%,” which is just his opinion, and not hateful or personal, as Daily News writer Joe Dziemianowicz is to express his wish to “get to first base with Matt Harvey,” which is pushy, inappropriate and possibly personally offensive to Harvey (“To me, Murph’s Mr. Mutt,” Oct. 24). But, anyway, why is this nonsense front-page news? |
How lovable is David Saraga?
And this is probably the button that Marvin Warm is referring to:
