In honor of the Draft Day and the Mets vastly improved play of late, here is more baseball related blogging. Home Run Derby is currently running a bracketed competition for the best baseball mascot. Number I seed Mr. Met is competing against Number 8 seed Homer the Brave. Mr. Met was introduced at Shea Stadium in 1964 and is believed to be the first baseball mascot to be portrayed by a live human. Homer was introduced in 1988 after the Braves were forced to drop their former mascot Chief Noc-A-Homa because of political correctness. But Homer is clearly a knock off of Mr. Met and cannot be allowed to win. So please vote here early and often.Here is a video of Mr. Met in action.
By the way I voted and saw that Mr. Met was winning 99% to 1%. But don't let that stop you from voting. Crush Homer the Brave!!!
