Edgy MD Site Manager Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 I would sell my body in downtown Atlanta for a Daniel Herrera jersey.
Johnny Lunchbucket Old-Timey Member Posted July 19, 2021 Posted July 19, 2021 This totally addresses the reason so few of have a lot of jerseys-- they're too damn ethereal, too damn expensive and too damn inappropriate to take up room in your wardrobe. But with our new million-$$ rent-a-jersey program, a fan can get 5 Mets jerseys-- for the price of one--a different one-- the RIGHT one-- every night.Jerry Koosman uni-retirement day coming up? Boom, here's your Jerry.

Fman99 Old-Timey Member Posted July 20, 2021 Posted July 20, 2021 No, not really, I was joking because it came up in the broadcast yesterday. It actually looked pretty gross to me also.
kcmets Old-Timey Member Posted July 20, 2021 Author Posted July 20, 2021 Didn't really look like chili. I have a fool proof chili recipe I will post in anotherthread once I can find it later.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted July 20, 2021 Posted July 20, 2021 Cohen couldn't have been more unambiguous in his anti-endorsement: "It's inedible, I can tell you that."
Marshmallowmilkshake Old-Timey Member Posted July 20, 2021 Posted July 20, 2021 I've had Skyline. It's like the White Castle of Cincy. I went there with friends after a Reds game. I would not call it chili. It's like meat sauce you put on a hot dog. In fact, replace the hot dog with spaghetti and that's pretty much it. Not saying I'm craving it. My wife wanted no part of it. But if I was at a game in Cincy with friends again, we'd go there.

Mostly, it's various Metly tees (mostly of the logo variety), or just blue-and-orange logoless stuff. (Kid's got some more recent shirseys of Jake, Thor, Wright, and HOF Piazza.)dinosaur jesus wrote:I wouldn't wear a team jersey. But I do look covetously sometimes at the Ebbets Field Flannels historical jerseys and wonder if it's worth spending $200 on a Federal League 1914 St. Louis Terriers home jersey, or an 1895 Cleveland Spiders road jersey. Probably not. One thing I would definitely wear, if anyone made it and if I could justify the $500 it would probably cost, is one of those cardigans that players used to wear in the early twentieth century instead of jackets. Those were some beautiful sweaters.I have been VERY tempted to pick up various Grays, Crawfords, Elefantes and Cangrejeros-- both their 1954s are like vintage Dodger jerseys minus the Dodger stink and plus embroidered fuggin' CRABS-- products from these folks.
batmagadanleadoff Old-Timey Member Posted July 20, 2021 Posted July 20, 2021 I had Skyline Chili a few years ago. I've been jonesing for it ever since I Iearned about it -- from watching a Mets game. It turned out to be like the worst piece of crap franchise fast food I probably ever ate. Robert Plant once said that Cincinnati was the worst US city he'd ever toured. He said you'd be lucky to get a decent meal there after 10PM. Figures.

Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted July 20, 2021 Posted July 20, 2021 I wonder if it's more disgusting than the Primanti Brothers sandwiches (with soggy french fries) that is the signature dish at PNC Park.

Ceetar Grand Central Contributor Posted July 20, 2021 Posted July 20, 2021 probably on par. I tend to like chili on noodles, and chili on french fries for that matter, but I could definitely see how a chain could make that badly. It's like thinking sandwiches are bad because you've only had the play dough they sell at Subway.
