Being ... Mr. Met Page 2 staff |

"Things were great with Linda after the 'suntan lotion' commercial, but everything got weird when she started talking about becoming 'Mrs. Met.' " |
"My head might weigh 37 pounds ... but I can at least bend over to field a groundball." |
"Hey, maybe there are some advantages to being a bald mascot." |
"If I were to put on that fake mustache and glasses, maybe I could pass myself off as Billy The Marlin." |
"Geez! Cedeno couldn't hit .250 if they were pitching my head." |
"Screw Alf! Mike had agreed to do the commercials with me." |
"I wouldn't trust Armando with a three-run lead in the ninth ... or scissors and clippers in the seventh." |
