Following with the theme of positive posts (and videos) today, I give you what may be the best Mets commercial since … well … ever …
Nice that there isn’t any nonsensical, unrealistic marketing message attached (i.e., “the magic is back”).
This brilliant piece was produced by Brett Hauze of SNY. You can see more of his interesting work on Vimeo.
Lately, there has been a lot of negativity on this blog. Maybe it’s me. Or maybe it’s because the Mets stink, the Wilpons are broke, and the Mets stink.
So, today I have something positive to report, though it has nothing to do with the Mets (though, it is a New York story).
Carlos Flores, Jr. will throw out the ceremonial first pitch at Yankee Stadium on Opening Day. He’s the son of the “subway hero” who saved a man’s life last summer. Carlos Jr. is also a pretty good baseball pitcher — despite having only one hand. He says Jim Abbott is his inspiration, but his dad is his hero. Awesome.
