    A unisphere with baseball stitches would look pretty sweet, conceptually

    While those colors aren’t objectively good, they work so well together is a padres baseball context.
  5. metsmarathon
    Agreed.

    Clearly we’re pigeonholing us by identifying as “New York” even, apparently. :eyeroll

    The 5 is fire. I love it. It’s exactly what I would’ve proposed. It’s based on the new signage for the nyc parkways. The real GCP has the unisphere where the ball is, also cut off. This is terrific. I was looking around for a photo of one in The wild and couldn’t find it or I would’ve proposed it earlier as a foundation. It’s new, it’s crisp. I love it. The subway signs are great too but I worry it’ll look too derivative - especially of the 7 line. Also… hasn’t it been done before? I feel like I’ve seen it before. Maybe not. But the GCM sign is fresh. It’s my clear winner. 3 is a distant second.

    It works for both. I think of grand central station first, not the parkway. I think we can nod towards both, to be honest. Iconographically the station has the deeper well. You can evoke the big ol’ windows in the grand concourse, or the clock. Or even the departure board. There’s a lot of there there. For the parkway you could draw from the road sign itself for a clean design, with a smaller sign graphic perhaps for exit 9E for citi field.

    The 7 line is the name of the subway route that stops at willets point station, and it seems to do pretty well for itself.

    Something like the Mets Pool could work, because a pool is a group of reporters. Like, the Mets press pool. Wade into the deep end for the forums. A nod to our own history and all that. Otherwise… Mets central Mets express Mets landing Mets connection Metslink Mets on my mind Mets forum Mets mezzanine Mets hub Mets bot farm But seriously though. If you google “Mets forum” and the names that come up have “Mets” and “forum” in the description isn’t that enough? Would a clever cheeky or interesting name draw more visits than literally just saying Mets? I don’t know seo and marketing clearly. And most of my humor is dad jokes at this point. Tying into collective team history à la Kranepool grounds the place more than “Mets [noun]” but yeah it might be a bit esoteric Hmm. Shea Bridge. Where Mets fans gather. I’m not very good at this.

    I went to school for engineering, so I’m great with words. Something organic that pulls on our history, that feels like we coulda named it back in the day or along the way. I dont have good ideas, just some thoughts. Kranepool Connection Kranepool corner Mets Magic Metropolitan Baseball Mets Grand Central From Shea to Citi Amazin’ Archive

    Oh boy it’s such a pretty day down there.

    My kids - especially ummL- loved his Mickey necklace. I loved his hard work and effort - and it seemed like he was a real leader on the team, especially with respect to trying to draw Juan Soto out of his shell. Much like granderson, he was so sneaky good when he was good, that I don’t think he’s really been as appreciated as he rightfully should be. At his best, full power, he was an excellent player. I’m glad he found a home. Hopefully he and Seth lugo can run deep into the playoffs.

    The Mets Crane Pool. Wade into the latest Mets news. Dive into the deep end in our forums. Mind the skinny dippers.
  17. metsmarathon
    Would it be so hard to become the Crane Pool Mets Forum?
  18. metsmarathon
    I’m sure it would be possible to share a contact list amongst ourselves. Or to post a bail out message either in super secret code or via dm

    Imai was the pitcher I was most interested in this year. We’ll see how smart I am or amn’t.

    Yay, they didn’t lose!

    Has anybody spent much time taking the temperature on the other sites Brock runs? If so, what do you see that you don’t like?
  22. metsmarathon
    I don’t care if edgy loses money on this forum or if Brock loses money trying to make money on this forum, so long as somebody is out there trying to facilitate my interactions with you fellow metly hill people. (Actually I care more that edgy - and all of our historical benefactors along the way - is losing money on us).
