Mark Sanchez, the newly drafted quarterback of the New York Jets, has been invited to throw out the first pitch at tonight’s Mets game. He wrote on his Twitter feed, “1st time on the Subway . . . Met some nice people there. Wking out @ Columbia University. See you @ City Field tonight!”

Apparently some employee of the TARP recipient contacted him. “Citi just called and said I better get their name right . . . Citi Field that is. Rookie move I guess.”

Actually, Mark, until they pay back their government loans, it’s pronounced “Taxpayer.”
