This may not count techinically, since the person who was wearing the hat has already been swallowed.

I'm glad that all of the Mets caps have been blue so far.

I think you're missing the point of the game Irish.

The same thing that's wrong with rock n' roll, cell phones, or anything else that comes along that takes older folks out of their set ways and comfort zone.

Another way to put it would be that it's the same thing that's wrong with green meat, brown bananas, and yellow snow.

LMAO! Great responses.

However, it sounds like Elster hit the nail on the head.

I have a brown Mets shirt because it was the only non-ugly t-shirt they had in my size and it was way too hot for the long sleeve shirt I wore to the park.

Am I a horrible person?

I don't know you, so I can't judge.

But if you are a horrible person, it's probably not because of the brown Mets shirt.

I actually own (and have often worn) one of the black caps with the blue brim. I think they look okay, and it would be okay if the Mets wore them once a week or so.

But the blue cap is the real cap, and the best cap. They should be wearing it the vast majority of the time.

I hate the all-black cap, though. And I hate the black jerseys, especially when worn for home games. There's no place for either of them.

You are right, I am not a horrible person for my brown shirt.

However, I am a horrible person because the Coolflo helmets don't bother me so much anymore.

The problem with the blue cap these days is that it has that ridiculous orange dot that makes the damn thing look like a beanie. If they're going to go with the blue hat the majority of the time, they need to get rid of that damn dot.

The dot has gotten even stupider on the all-blue, all-new streamlined batting helmet, seeing as there's no button on top to even color.

The dot is a small price to pay, relatively.

Hey!
Waitaminnit!
I'm a geezer, and I like rock and roll.

Of course, I was "set" in my rock and roll ways when rock and roll was really rock and roll.

I would add that the black caps with the blue brim should be 'road caps'. Worn only with the grey 'NEW YORK' road jerseys. Other than that Yancy and I are sympatico.

You saying that you like the all-black caps and all-black jerseys? Really? You really, truly like them?

I like them. I even prefer them. Black is beautiful, baby!

When you've had Black, you don't go back.

I prefer the traditional look. But I like the black hats with the blue brim (second best) and I also like the all-black look.

I like them all. Changes of pace are nice. The problem I see is they just go black too much.

I like the road grays too.

The only jerseys I don't really like are the all white ones. They should just wear the pins instead.

I still think any and all of the jerseys with the double thick racing stripe down the sleeves and sides are ugly.
