Yes, How Bout Dem 1997 Mets?

If you can’t make it out, those are — clockwise from the top left — Rey Ordoñez, John Olerud, Todd Hundley and Bobby Jones at play on my torso. We were in Cooperstown on August 26, 1997. The Mets were 70-60 at that moment, trailing the Florida Marlins by 5-1/2 games in the Wild Card race. And as I’ve been telling you once a month since April, I couldn’t have been a whole lot happier.
