Programming reminder: Thursday night, 7:30, SNY marks the 21st century debut of the 1968 highlight film, the fourth in the sensational Mets Yearbook series. Could it possibly be as great as last week’s foray into 1975 when we got to Meet The Mets of chatty Dave Kingman, promising Mike Vail, genius-in-waiting Joe Frazier and Dairylea […]

SNY’s excellent Mets Yearbook series returns Thursday night, December 3, at 7:30 with the 1975 highlight film. Find out if Tom Seaver strikes out 200 batters for an eighth consecutive year.

Be sure to catch Keith Hernandez, Jesse Orosco, Darryl Strawberry and all the Rising Stars. Image courtesy of kcmets.com Rarely has anything I’ve anticipated surpassed my expectations the way SNY’s Mets Yearbook did Thursday night. The 1971 highlight film immediately became the second-best thing ever aired on the channel, behind only the 2006 division clincher. The film was titled The Winning Way, which in itself is beautiful given that the 83-79 Mets were as mediocre […] Reminder: The much-anticipated SNY program Mets Yearbook debuts tonight, Thursday, at 7:30, with the 1971 highlight film in the leadoff slot. Can’t wait to revisit the propaganda I’m pretty sure I haven’t seen since some rain delay in 1972. It has been listed on SNY’s online schedule as reairing a couple more times, but one of those […] As trophies and t-shirts were being passed around Wednesday night on five different channels, I flipped to SNY out of curiosity.
