Citigroup, the Great American Write-Down Machine and buyer of certain New York stadium’s naming rights, announced their new slogan today. No longer will Citi “Get It Done” but rather from this day forth Citigroup is the Financial Wal-Mart that Never Sleeps. Cute. So you’re like New York and stuff. How clever.
The Mets and Citi Field need to adopt this slogan immediately like they quasi-did with Let’s Get It Done last year. Because right now the Mets appear to be asleep on the field.
A lot of their bats need to wake up. Their defense is a mix of flashes of gold gloves mixed with painful-to-watch nonsense.
Willie Randolph is the worst of them all – dude needs to drink some coffee, take a cold shower, go back to 1999 or whenever it was acceptable to take some Stacker Twos, something! Enough cheesy, predictable post-game quotes. Wake up man, because you guys almost, kinda suck right now.
Billy Wagner should not be the only audible voice of reason on the team. Sit up Willie, look those reporters(and through them, the fans) in the eye and assure us all that you are not asleep at the wheel of the league’s most complacent team.
The Mets: We Never Sleep. I like it already.
