All The News That's Fit To Print...And Occasionally The Ramblings Of A Jackass

I don't know if the Mets are listening but the New York Times is.  For whatever reason, the Times saw fit to print some of my ideas for Citi Field in this Saturday's paper.  I only find this odd because they never printed the ten page letter I sent them a while back about why Zooey Deschanel should go out with me.

While I'm not sure if getting my blog mentioned in the paper is much better than when mom and dad would put my drawings on the fridge, I guess this is still pretty cool and I'm honored. 

Thanks to Justin & Joe at the NY Times for making this happen.  Tomorrow, it's back to nonsense for me.

Bats: The New York Times baseball blog asked for ideas for Citi Field changes.  My ideas were featured but there are also lots of other good and humorous ideas for the park shown. Check it out here.

Apparently The New York Times Makes Up Fake Mets News Too...

So I was reading this piece about Reyes on the New York Times website when this paragraph caught my eye:

But if he (Reyes) gets nervous about being labeled as injury-prone and the Mets decided to take advantage of some perceived vulnerability and make him a great offer, he might be inclined to at least listen. But it would have to be a tremendous offer to persuade him to forgo free agency.

I can't help but wonder why the writer stopped at just one fantasy scenario.  If you're going to pull stuff out of your ass you really should go the full nine.  What if Reyes is bitten by a radioactive spider?  What if the Mets are purchased by Jay-Z.  What if Zombies attack the stadium?
