I feel like I've just been kicked in the groin

I just went out to the mailbox to see what the postman had for me today. Since it's Thursday, I fully expected a Sports Illustrated in the box. I flipped through the letters and saw the SI header in the back of things. I got to the cover. I saw a bunch of New York Mets. I read the title, "MIX MASTER." I read the description, "The Unlikely Story of How Omar Minaya Created the Melting Pot Mets." Then I saw it. On the cover are five Mets around Omar Minaya. Minaya's got his arms around two of them. One of the two? Oliver Perez. Oliver Perez is on the cover of Sports Illustrated in a Mets uniform. I want to vomit.
