Mr. Met's hat may be cocked, but he's not cocky after being nominated for the online entity that is the Mascot Hall of Fame. Mets organization officials said the usually mute mascot remained speechless at the honor. Induction is not a sure thing. Other candidates, which will be voted for online, include the Coyote for the San Antonio Spurs, Hugo the Hornet for the New Orleans Hornets, the Oriole bird for the Baltimore Orioles, Youpii for the Montreal Expos, and the Mariner Moose for the Seattle Mariners. One almost has to feel sorry for other cities as they pit their feeble candidates against the hypercephalic Mr. Met, although we hope the Oriole joins him in the Hall of Fame someday so Mr. Met can talk to someone other than predecessor "Clutch the Bear" from Houston (please!).

Mr. Met is probably one of the least annoying mascots in baseball today.
Most Annoying - The Philly Fanatic of the Philadelphia Phillies who basically started the trend of moron encased in shag carpet suit making an arse out of themselves. Then one would have to guess that they needed to have something to come out to the ballpark and see other than the worst team in the history of professional sports.
So is Yogi Berra the official mascot of the Yankees?
Mr. Met is lame and annoying. But I'm shocked a certain someone doesn't think that Bernie Brewer is the worst mascot because Bud Selig raped his grandmother while he was stealing the Seattle Pilots.
I am a Yankees fan but Mr. Met sure is cute! And he likes to party too.
Where's Lady Mets and her gaggle of Metsies?
Surely Youppi! is the only one that stands a chance against the juggernaut that is Mr. Met.
I am a Wsox fan but it's mascot is the worst in the league. He looks like a giant booger.
