Last July, I took the unveiling of hideously garish JJ Putz and Omir Santos custom jerseys to declare the Mets, “4th in the NL East, but in first place when it comes to ferociously ugly merchandise no one in their right mind would purchase.” Sadly, few fashion lessons have been learned during the ensuing 10 months. While last night’s 5-0 defeat of the Phillies offers hope for the Flushing product between the lines, the above jpg (culled from Mets Police) reveals additional aesthetic crimes that no one — especially not Canadians — should turn a blind eye towards.
What about last year’s quickly printed “Lance Broadway ’35′” fanwear, flash-minted by Tha Glee Klubhaus (aka The Gaylords of Flatbush, The Brooklyn Queens, “’35?’ Well Hello Sailor,” crues)?
Who’s Frenchy? Is that a Grease reference?
Jason Bay isn’t even a Canadian anymore!
