Mets On St. Patrick's Day: Schmuck 'O' The Irish

Harsh Title, I know, but going through my email today, the Mets sent a Happy St. Patrick's Day e-mail with a link attached.



I, being a glutton for punishment, clicked on it. It was a neat video with players (Bay, Dickey, Davis, et al) wishing everyone a Happy St. Patrick's Day. That was fine. Actually it was pretty funny hearing Daniel Murphy saying Erin Go Bragh! with his southern accent.

The offensive part of the video was at the end with yet another shameless plug for Mets single game tickets. Can't the Mets just wish everyone a Happy ________ (whatever) without a plug for for tickets due to sagging interest in visiting Federal Bailout Park? Why must there be strings attached? Just wish everyone a Happy St. Patrick's Day and let that be the end of i t.

In following Mets recent tradition, I personally want to wish everyone a Happy St. Patrick's Day...and be sure to tell all your friends about 24 Hours From Suicide...A Day In The Life Of A Met Fan.
