Who is going to get the best all-Met team? Who is going to get the worst all-Met team? Only photo evidence qualifies a player for the team. A player photographed in two different shoes may qualify for two different teams: Thus far we have: Team NikeMets: 1) 2) Wally Backman, 2b 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) 9) Dwight Gooden, sp Team asicsmets 1) Mookie Wilson, cf 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) 9) Team Pumamets 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) Dave Kingman, lf 6) 7) 8) 9) Team Conmets 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) 9) Tom Hausman, sp Fila, Adidas, and Reebok, among others, are still in the gate.

Should we each captain a different squad?

John Cougar Lunchbucket Oct 16 2007 10:06 AM

Nah. Nike will win ultimately. It's fun just finding the brands

Edgy DC Oct 16 2007 10:07 AM

Dunno. Adidas just got something Nike hasn't. A captain.

Can we have a ruling on this Whitham? Looks like Roos to me.

Centerfield Oct 16 2007 01:03 PM

Whatever they are, McReynolds has them too.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Oct 16 2007 01:05 PM

Those are PONYs baby.

Centerfield Oct 16 2007 01:07 PM

Correct you are Sir, as demonstrated by Rick Aguilera and the crystal clear photography of Iubitul.

Iubitul Oct 16 2007 01:07 PM

They look like Ponys to me.

Iubitul circa 1987: "I have to make sure the shoes can be seen clearly in these photos. In about 20 years, the Mets will suffer a monumental collapse in the season's final two weeks, and the forum at which I post on the internet (which will be invented soon) will need diversions to take their minds off of the post-season taking place without their team. One such diversion will be separating Mets by their brand of shoe."

Cliff Floyd also rocked with the Nikes:
