"Line I made"

awesome.

AA has to be

far and away the leading orignal MS Paint design producer in all of the SportsBlogNation. all contributing artists, and i use that term deliberately, should take a bow.

Joe you've been hoarding these masterpieces until this week haven't you?

I like to think the 2 homers inside Delgado’s “heart” were the 2 he hit off Cole Hamels that Sunday night game in September.

I say Livan

I bet his chart (whatever it might be) ends up looking like a donut.

I dunno

A donut could be mistaken for a plain old circle. I say it should look like a giant turkey leg to make it clear what we’re talking about.

Possibly

Although I bet all sorts of foods end up on Livan’s chart. Tacos, hot dogs, Fifth Third Burgers, etc.

Judging by the comments to Matt Callan’s ode to 1986 Mets: A Year To Remember from a few weeks back, the video has a devoted Mets fan following. Despite being too young to remember anything about that season, it has a special place in my fandom as well. It was part of a two video rotation (Ghostbusters being the other) which ran almost daily on my television for a few years in the early 90s. And it remained a once-in-awhile watch through high school and college. 

Unsurprisingly, the physical tape deteriorated over time, and the screen jumps and sound skips made for a less than optimal viewing experience. With sale of the video discontinued, my brother converted it to DVD and gave it to me for Christmas in 2010. See the picture above for the box and DVD. He even created a scene selection function which can be accessed from the main menu. "Get Metsmerized!" plays on loop on the menu screen. It is my favorite Christmas gift ever and is still nice to throw on for a viewing.

"How'd we do it? Mirrors!"
I was flipping through some of my parents' photo albums this afternoon in search of one particular shot of the sign my older sister made for Mets Banner Day back in the late eighties. Though I didn't find that one — I'll post it when I eventually track it down, and I can assure you that it's Keith-themed — but I did stumble upon this wonderful photo of my younger sister's stuffed animal menagerie spread out in front of a glorious rainbow-festooned Mets pennant, also from the late eighties.

She works for the HRC now and was particularly delighted to be reminded of this photo.
