    Well said I guess, thankfully the team is not in a pennant race - SC = 100 I can appreciate what Collins is saying and I would hope he has talked to management about it all. Anyone heard from Alderson on this?

    I wrote this and got the same automated response. David, I am writing to express my utter frustration and annoyance over this debacle with the first responder hats on 9/11. A simple gesture to show support for these men and women has been turned in to PR disaster that could have and should have been avoided. Now today we have MLB coming out and saying that nothing heavy handed was issued in regards fines and whatnot , you can see where this is going right?, yes, the Mets will once again look like fools that can't do anything correctly, any order from MLB should have been dismissed from up above and the players should have taken the field with whatever responders caps they wished. I would hope that the Mets don't take these MLB lies and issue their own statement and furthermore state that in the future it will be handled differently. Conor - frustrated Mets fan.

"@AdamRubinESPN: And my friends at MLB were adamant no one threatened heavy fines." Pressure sure seems to have been asserted somehow. Rubin's got to stop leaking this piece by piece and put together a full, in-depth story. Rubin's tweets today are pretty nasty allaround. I wish people would stop retweeting him so I don't have to read them. if I am retweeting them and it's bothering you by all means stop following me please.

    I want to day something smart and funny, but I'll hang my hat on maybe he has figured something out and has two great seasons in him as a Mets player.

    Surely players shouldn't care about a contract between New ERA and MLB?, are the players bound to that contract as employees?, it can get confusing I think.

Had forgotten about that loan, taking all of this into account Wilpon was never going to go against it.Not defending anyone here but it's MLB in my opinion that look pathetic here.

    I'm not surprised Collins didn't send them out with the hats, I'm sure Wilpon had him in his office, and we know from the past that Wilpon is a big buddy of Selig's and is known to toe the party line. Should we have seen this coming as the Nats were told not to wear them recently too?

    DKnobler If you want to know why MLB insisted on Mets wearing their own hats, here's the reason: http://shop.mlb.com/product/index.jsp?productId=11784929&cp=1452359.1452831

    FU Torre, this is turning into PR disaster for MLB if twitter is anything to go by.

    Poor Piazza crying after espn showed a piece on a long island family and what his home run meant to them.

    I guess wearing the hats might offend some people?, dumb move Selig. Thole tells Rubin the players will talk about defying the ban. Thole is union rep.

    it's real alright, is Lucas involved,meaning it's a Mets/Lucas thing? http://gothamist.com/2011/09/10/mets_attempt_to_interest_fans_with.php#photo-1 more pix here this actually could be quite interesting in a fucked up harmless way.

    Gary reporting after a Reyes AB that Collins has told Reyes not to run at 100% on ground outs and such......crazy

    True, and I'll add that a ticket to see the Mets is very reasonable, and kids were free . I hope when the team is rising high and winning things these little things will remain.

    The second paragraph is gold, the first?, those are the fans that should be cherished but they are not the ones they were thinking of when the stadium was being built, sadly.

    No Paul LoDuca?
