Someone from mets.com - HELP!!!

I have unsubscribed at least a half dozen times to your emails and still they come, seemingly every day, sometimes twice a day if you count the ones from mlb.com. Has anyone successfully stopped the spam?

I have often imagined that at the end of those "unsubscribe" buttons there is a room full of techies laughing their asses off.

they do come fast and furious, don't they. The playoff pool was the worst. 3 times a day your opening met/mlb ads, until you finally see this: Dear Mets Fan: Thank you for participating in the random online drawing for the opportunity to purchase tickets for potential 2006 Mets postseason games scheduled to be played at Shea Stadium. Your entry was not selected to purchase tickets for potential World Series games. Thank you again for your participation. The New York Mets now i get them from the red sox as well and i did not subscribe to them.

I had to e-mail Mets.com about 15 times this year before they finally added Tom Seaver to "retired numbers" under the team history section. And you'd better believe Wade Boggs was listed on the D-Rays site at the time. Oy.

The Seaver bit is embarrassing, but this is what you get when all of the team sites are consolidated into one mega site. The upside is the tremendous amount of content, the downside is wrong or out of date info tends to linger (lists of retired #s and such) and pretty much working on IT department work schedule. You can probably tell when MLB.com's staff has vacations, or at least graphics when transactions aren't reflected on the player's headshot for weeks, when usually the cap and uni gets photoshopped within hours, sometimes minutes of the transaction happening
