TFoA Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 I had no beef against doing this, but they did it so poorly, let's just slap a little "LOS" before Mets. The should have made it the same sized, cursive font across the chest.Exactly. It would've looked decent if they had done that. This just looks so cheaply done, like "Let's just slap a "Los" on there, and the hispanics will LOVE it." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TFoA Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 I think it's cool that they're doing the Los Mets thing. I just hate the actual execution of it on the uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you refer to the Padres? How do you refer to the Mets?I'm fairly sure you'd say "the Padres" and "the Mets."However, the regular uniforms don't say "The Padres" or "The Mets." Make sense?

At least the "Los" was the same size as the "Rangers". On 8/1/2010 at 4:01 PM, winters in buffalo said: You manage to balance agitation with just enough salient points to keep things interesting.

Perfect Zero Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 I wonder how retarded it would look to you if it had "Die Mets" on it. The only ones who would buy it would be Phillies and Braves fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Die Walkure" and "Die Meistersinger" are singular. And there's always "Die Bart Die," which is,of course, German for "The Bart The."

cappital92 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 after reading some of the comments i've come to the conclusion that alot of members of this site is extremely racist.While I partly agree, the whole mess is about the way it was done, not the whole "Los Mets" idea.P.S. That black shadow on the script is terrible. http://www.wizardsxtra.com Is it the shoes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
