Mets upset over 'Family Guy' gaffe

[Buccos13]

After the Mets' 6-2 loss to the Florida Marlins on Friday, an unidentified SNY employee briefly played audio from a Family Guy clip over broadcaster Gary Cohen.


"Family Guy" fans quickly recognized the audio as a Mets-mocking gag from the Fox show's Nov. 7 episode.

In one of the cartoon's riffs on pop culture, the scheming baby character, Stewie Griffin, is upset that he's not having fun on Halloween, and says the holiday is "a bigger letdown than being a Mets fan."

The scene then cuts to Stewie sitting at a Mets game. An announcer says, "It's Opening Day, and here's the first pitch . . . and the season's over!"

Stewie then flings down his cap in disgust.

Here's the video, which I personally find very funny:

Just one of many things likely to go wrong for the Mets this season.

The Mets make themselves look like a fool on the field. They should make it any worse by crying about a joke like this.
