DG_ThenNowForever Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 I guess they all want in on the cash grab. Like the Latino community is going to care so much about a baseball team because they pander to them in this obscene way. What about everyone else who this will offend?I'm sick of this crap.I don't get it. What's so offensive here? 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powersurge Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 That's just abysmal. It might have even been better if they had put Nueva York on the front. Those look ridiculous.Good idea...if they were playing on the road. They're playing at home so I guess thats why they decided to go with the 'Los Mets' garbage.

It's not terrible at all, really.I dunno, the fact its so small its like they threw it on as afterthought could be seen as even more patronizing and insulting.

JQK Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 seriously, do major league teams have to honour the Latino community like this?No, they don't. But there's nothing wrong with it either. I'm sure many of the players appreciate it as well.Well, looking at the Mets roster... it's happeneing to the most appropriate team i suppose...

cranium Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 This is just a stupid and lazy way to do it. Certainly, there had to have been a better word. Is Brad Pitt in charge of this (see the Mexican)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshawaggie Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I had no beef against doing this, but they did it so poorly, let's just slap a little "LOS" before Mets.

xyzzyva Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 How appropriate... they're playing the Los Angeles Dodgers Imagine what would happen if the Yankees did this? seriously, do major league teams have to honour the Latino community like this?You mean Los Marrulleros and Los Yanquis?Los Mets?At least when Tampa Bay rolls out the Rayos de BahÃa de Tampa jerseys it won't seem so bad.And we shall all rue the day that Los Angeles de Los Angeles de Anaheim appear.Also, I hope Los Reales don't follow suit at their Hispanic Heritage Night next Friday. Maybe a Les Royales French-Canadian homage someday? There are 10 types of people in this world: those who understand binary and those who don't.
