The Mets are not only giving back to the community, they're using their "popularity" to give back during the Thanksgiving holiday.You know what this franchise's "popularity" got me?
I'm in a store last night looking for candy as a helpful gentleman was busy telling people that if they needed help to come to him. "Ma'am, If you need anything, let me know and I'll help you." Then again to the next person: "Ma'am If you need anything, let me know and I'll help you." Then he gets to me. "Sir ..."
(sees Mets hat ... first time this particular model has been worn)
"Sir ... you need to change your hat."
(looks at me)
"Immediately."
All I could do was laugh. It kept me from crying.
And I think the candy made me sick.
Here's hoping you don't get sick from too much turkey, mashed potatoes, lasagna, stuffing, chocolate cream pie, ambrosia, or whatever interesting things you have on tap for the holiday. I know I have plenty to be thankful for, including turkey, mashed potatoes, lasagna, stuffing, chocolate cream pie, ambrosia ...
Yes, even baseball. (Though it's kinda down on the list these days.) Happy Thanksgiving.
