The Toy Department Manifesto

The invention of the movable type printing press by Johannes Gutenberg in the 15th century. Alexander Cartwright formalizing the Knickerbocker Rules in 1845. Our own fathers drunken expletive-laced tirades during our little league games in 1987. Marty Noble eating all the chicken fingers from the press box buffet before a Mets/Marlins game in 2008. It's all lead to this moment.

Whenever a pitching coach goes off the record...we'll be there. Whenever the Port St Lucie IHOP serves undercooked sausage patties...we'll be there. Whenever Carlos Beltran does anything...anywhere...we'll be there.

We are smug shitbags. We are uncoordinated & socially-inept. We report everything as fact.

We are better than you.

We are...The Toy Department.
