So far this season the Mets players have been huge supporters of The 7 Line brand. It’s pretty crazy to see the dudes rocking the tees and being so public about it. By now most die hard fans know of The 7 Line and it’s awesome that the players themselves took notice and like the tees enough to wear them.

I dropped off a box of tees on Thursday before the team head out on the road. In the stack were our new tees, THE DUDA-BIDES.
Writer Andy McCullough of The Star Ledger caught wind of them wearing the shirts and added it to his story about Duda and his big night in Colorado.

Good lookin out Andy! Thanks!
Lots of mixed emotions last night at the ballpark. As I walked in Citi Field I saw more than a few confused fans wearing Reyes Mets jerseys with Miami Marlins hats. They weren’t in the same group of friends, so more than a few people had that same twisted idea, whatever that may be.
A large group of Reyes supporters were down the LF line and roared as he came out to stretch. I settled down in section 109 near the Mets warming up and few of the players stopped to check out my sign. Pretty sure Wright pointed it out to Ruben and Murphy smiled and tossed me up a ball. I guess the players have the same feeling.
Enough with the Reyes media frenzy. He’s been gone since December and it’s time to finally move on and get behind our boy Ruben. I was front and center trying to rally behind Reyes, but there is no use crying over spilt milk. I’d love to have him but since he’s gone I’m just as happy to see him go 0-4 in his return.
I filmed the pre-game video tribute and was curious what the reaction would be. With so much talk about this I thought more people would care to watch, but I guess it’s really just the media who needed some extra hype about the game. Most people missed it or had no reaction; some boos but mostly cheers. Reyes tipped his cap, the game began and he ALMOST led off with a HR. You know damn well the beat reporters were hoping that cleared the wall. Lucky for us Captain Kirk got a good jump and chalked up out #1. (photo by Gordon Donovan)
During the game a few JOSE chants could be heard (@Pessimets_ ) , some fans waved dollar bills in the air during his last at bat and boos echoed when he recorded outs against us at SS.
As per usual there was no run support for Johan but great to see him have a solid outing after getting roughed up last week. In the end Mets scored late to give him the ND and Rauch the W.
Mets win, Reyes and the Marlins lose…. I like the sound of that. Now somebody go put a jinx on the Nationals before they run away with this shit!
Since I was such a supporter of Jose Reyes staying with the Mets last season people have been asking my opinion on how I’ll feel when he’ll return this Tuesday.
Will I boo? No. Will I cheer? I don’t think so.
I don’t think it’s right that the Mets are playing a video tribute before the game. Playing that is pretty much telling the fans that we should clap by jamming it down their throats. I understand it’s customary to play when an ex player comes back to town. That being said the Mets haven’t had a player like this leave in a long time. Piazza was a different story because he was near the end of his career and not playing for a division rival. Reyes is still in the prime of his career, if his legs stay healthy.
Not saying how anyone else should feel but personally I’m not mad at Jose. He is a talent in the league that deserved to be paid. The Mets couldn’t afford him and made NO OFFER. The Marlins did and now he’s gone. Taking himself out of the last game? I didn’t like that, but what can we do about it now? Jose didn’t know that was going to be his last AB when he layed down the bunt in the bottom of the 1st. He should have at least went out for the 2nd inning if they were going to take him out of the game. That way the fans could have given him a hearty ovation that would have eventually been his send off.
Deal with it and move on. He now plays for the enemy and once the game starts he is just another guy in an opposing uniform.
Check this article up on BLEACHER REPORT. Writer Adam Ramirez did a great job grasping what The 7 Line is all about. Thank you Adam.

Wow, I’m actually pretty shocked. Thanks for replying Leigh! For those don’t know what this is about and want to get up to speed, read this mornings post HERE.
Most people in her position wouldn’t acknowledge the idea. I hope the printer has enough time to change it before they go to print.
I don’t mind giving feedback on future shirts if you need any advice. LGM!
Tagged Mets, t-shirt tuesday
This shirt really needs no introduction. Frankly I’m surprised I didn’t think of a Kiner shirt sooner. Ralph has been a part of the Mets from the start and still graces the booth with his precense to this day.
This will be up as a PRE-SALE starting tomorrow and I will be trying to contact Ralph to see if he would like us to donate a portion of the shirts profits to the charity of his choice. The shirt color is called “vintage white” which is like an ash color. Very light grey to give it an older look.
If anyone has a contact for Ralph please send me an e-mail by clicking the CONTACT button above.
When the calendar idea came to light I thought how awesome it would be if the players hung them in their lockers. Today, Buffalo Bisons Mets player, Valentino Pascucci posted these pictures on his Twitter account.
Valentino was up with the big ball club at the end of the last season and dropped a bomb down the left field line the day we had our suite party in September. We were going nuts up there!
Thanks Valentino! Nice shirt!

The Mets decided to update their t-shirt design for the next “T-shirt Tuesday” at Citi Field. Not trying to take credit for it, but I have a feeling they may have read my blog rant. If not, I am glad they are paying attention to the other fans who were feeling the same way about their designs. They decided to go the orange and blue route (white was the original) which of course should be the top priority in anything they design. They took the original black print and turned it to orange which is cool but makes it look like the negative when printed on a dark color shirt.
My advice would be to keep the design itself blue, which will be the shirt color showing through and just outline it in orange. I mocked it up to show you what I mean. Gives it a much nicer look and is the identical price. Still would be considered a one color print.
If you read this and have time to change it that would be my advice. I am not looking to get anything out of this. I genuinely want the Mets to sell more tickets and come out with some kick ass tees.
I’d like to get one myself before the end of the season.
Want to have a little fun tonight? Mets are off along with the Knicks and Rangers. Yankees are playing but if you’re reading this you can probably care less.
My intial plan was to leave this discount card somewhere at Citi Field on Opening Day but the cell service sucked and I couldn’t get the clues out.
I’d hook you up with the full 100% off but there isn’t an option for that as a discount code on our store. Also, this way we’ll have your shipping information. You’ll be able to pick out any three items you’d like on the website and just pay the shipping.
To get in on the hunt you’ll have to FOLLOW us on Twitter and LIKE on Facebook. The clues will start going out at around sundown tonight and the first card will be somewhere on the East Coast.
The next cards can be anywhere! I travel a lot and have people in The 7 Line Army planting these cards all around the world.
Make sure you FOLLOW and LIKE to see the clues.
When you find the location of the card there will be an envelope. In the envelope will be instructions to redeem your prize along with a special surprise gift from our good friends at Strawberry’s Sports Grill! Bring a camera or make sure your cell phone has one. We’ll post your pic to announce the winner!
GOOD LUCK!
