Maybe it’s the joy of Elimination Day [1], but after a week-plus of dreariness, I am once again looking forward to counting down the 37 + 14 + 41 + 42 days (more or less) until the 2008 Mets are on a field somewhere stretching and swinging and preparing to play an entire 162-game season.
Also showing not a little joy are our friends and blolleagues Taryn “Coop [2]” Cooper (nice shirt!…though her Seaver is hidden) and Zoe [3] Rice (also a nice shirt). This pic was snapped at Shea in September. To look at it, you’d almost think Mets fans had fun in 2007.
