We’ve heard by now all the basics, the players are having fun. The fans are excited. There’s a spark in the air once more. But we’re not going to talk about any of that right now.

I found myself, like most Sunday afternoons, in the liquor store. Whether there be a long winning streak to celebrate, or a losing one to mourn, one must be prepared. As I walked down the aisle, I passed the area they keep the somewhat novelty wine, not paying much attention. But something caught my eye. Sometime in the last few weeks they added something to the mix. The Met wines.

For those who like me, had forgotten all about them, months ago they announced there would be three Met wines for charity, part of a project that includes players from both the Yankees and the Sox. As the team’s loses piled up, the product never quite appeared up here in the western tundra’s of the state. But with the sudden 180 of the offense and defense, there they were: CaberReyes. Schardonay. Santana Wine.

I have not bought a bottle yet. I was hoping to consult Hot Foot Alcohol Expert IMFM on which is the best. Hopefully its just a start of a bright future in which I can purchase many mlb authorized licensed food product.
