Let’s Help The Mets!

Some baseball teams actually care about uniform accessories. The New York Mets are no such team. Recently the Amazins unveiled a breathtakingly primitive logo to celebrate their inaugural season in the newly built Citi Field (or “Shitty Field”– as it has promptly been dubbed in Philly). The logo appears to have been designed by a three-year-old with a basic understanding of Microsoft Paint, or a Phillies fan hired for a dream job. Either way, it boggles the mind that people for the Mets actually accepted the shoddy work, especially when better logos were made available. Here’s the original, as well as the tragically overlooked versions. Please let us know which you believe has the most artistic merit, so that we might be able to alert the Mets immediately, and quickly save them from continued national shame.
