In case you haven’t noticed, I haven’t spent a whole lot of time recently addressing the trials and tribulations of the New York Mets, other than to occasionally throw out an exasperated comment here and there.

As some of you may or may not know, back before the holidays, Beardy (or The Beard as I just now decided I will be referring to him as) held a little custom card design contest in which I came in second. Being the generous guy that he is, The Beard sent me a nice […]
