Mets should be ashamed of themselves on ‘Hawk Tuah Girl’ first pitch on Camp Day

Is there a psychiatrist in the house?

A Major League Baseball commissioner?

Steve Cohen?

The Mets general manager?

A quality control officer?

How about a good old fashioned teacher/nun with a ruler?

It was Camp Day at Citi Field on Thursday afternoon, thousands of kids in the ballpark, many of them already irreversibly desensitized and antisocialized by the commercial urges that assault their vulnerable central nervous systems before they can distinguish between bad and worst. .

So the Mets did what any careful, careful nanny would do:

They invited a 22-year-old woman who had found sudden fame and following thanks to a TikTok video in which she mimed preparing to perform oral sex, dressed her in a Mets jersey, and then honored her by throwing her first the ceremony. tar.

Take it, camp counselors! Explain to the children that you have been assigned to escort them safely. If you knew or didn’t know who she is and why she was invited then honored at a Major League game, try telling the kids. After all, it’s on everyone’s cell phone.

Not that some 11-year-olds didn’t already know, social media is what it’s made of… and Rob Manfred & Co. being the ones who carelessly destroy the game, despite Manfred’s statement that he is doing the right thing by supporting children as fans as his top priority.

Look where we’ve landed, then ask why we’re here.

We just finished the Obese Drag Queen Olympics, set to be hosted by a drag career – oft-arrested rapper/gamer Snoop Dogg. It had as much to do with the Olympics as the young woman’s sexual habits have to do with the Mets, except for Pete Alonso’s classy “LFGM” that the Mets should have long since asked to be left in the bin .

Just last season, Manfred and the Dodgers gave Pride Night on-field honors to unshaven, burly, Catholic-bashing men dressed as nuns as legitimate representatives of LA’s gay population.

Media outrage was virtually non-existent.

Yet when Chiefs offensive lineman Harrison Butker spoke his first family sermon at a Catholic college graduation ceremony, the NFL joined the media in condemning such words as if he were a subversive radical anti-American activist, or, more bad, as if the family wasn’t supposed to. to rank so high.

As ESPN royalty Serena Williams, hosting the ESPYs, told Butker, sitting in the audience, his mind could use a quick clean and change. Only a subversive extremist of any religion, including none, would have the audacity to declare that his or her family deserves a ranking of no. 1.

The Mets have chosen to travel such a low road before, once honoring gutter rapper 50 Cent by letting him throw out the first pitch.

Why Fiddy? Because he’s from Queens. So being from Queens was more of an accomplishment than his arrests for possession of crack, heroin and a gun.

However, around the same time, the Mets fired two longtime employees, including their popular public address speaker, because a newly hired female—a bugger—complained that she overheard one of them telling a joke. dirty to the other.

But imagine being the parents of children who have entrusted camp and camp counselors to safely entertain their children who arrive at an afternoon Mets game where the game begins with a ceremony honoring a young, well-known woman among social injustices for oral sex.

Why?! Tell us why! What were the Mets thinking? Could they not find anyone more worthy? Or did they know that this kind of team promotion is passively allowed by Manfred and his helpful idiots?

Or did they let Roger Goodell’s classy, ​​pornographic “first in the family” Super Bowl halftime shows serve as their inspiration?

Provided it’s still possible to shame the Mets, Steve Cohen and Rob Manfred owe several thousand families an apology. Or, much worse, a refund.

A stool will not cure loafing on its own

Aaron Boone Baseball doesn’t suddenly disappear. Not even after a Gleyber Torres short bench for a double on a single.

A big moment in a big game is coming when Juan Soto completes a big draw because he chose to pose at the plate before running to first. (See: Giancarlo Stanton, Boston in Yanks’ wild 2021 season-ending loss).

On Monday, in a loss to the White Sox, Soto was ejected at first in a close game because he elected to watch his line drive with a jump to glove first on a diving knife stroke.


Hard-to-root, anything-but-angelic WNBA star Angel Reese has complained that she’s a victim of sexism rather than her brazen behavior.

Then last week, as is her wont, she posed for pictures in a barely-there pink teenage bikini. But the fearful and bloodthirsty media has learned to ignore such obvious truths.


Both the Yankees YES telecasts and the Mets SNY telecasts continue to overlay fake strike zones over live play, then offer them as replay evidence if the home plate ump got the call wrong.

We’ll try this again: The prescribed stroke area is from the letters to the knees. It does not start at the belt line as seen on TV.

The only time batting height is considered is when Aaron Judge is at the plate. PO stretches that box vertically to reflect his 6ft 7in height.

Lots of amazin fun, not much winning

The Mets sure have their celebrations in the regimented, tried-and-true rule, from the “OMG” signs paraded in the dugout, to the home run skeleton, to the dugout signaling approval after the hit — OMG! – a bachelor.

Does it matter that they’re extremely ordinary and just swept Seattle and then lost two of three at home to Triple-A A? No.


Where are all the empowered female activists who will not be silent to protest the inclusion of biological males to easily defeat and often injure smaller, naturally weaker opponents in women’s athletic competition? Why their silence?

Or do they consider advocating fair play to be political?


With ESPN Radio-NY moving to 880, reader Jeff Cohen writes that it will be interesting when “The Michael Kay Show” becomes the lead-in to Mets games.

And with the sad end this month of WCBS News Radio 880, we remember a great line spoken at the station.

It came in 2014 from sportscaster Gordon Damer.

After reporting that the Phillies had traded pitcher Roberto Hernandez to the Dodgers, Damer added that Hernandez was once known as Fausto Carmona.

He concluded with the news that the Phils will be getting “two players to be named later.”
