As the Mets bash their way towards the playoffs, I thought this would be a cool trip down memory lane.

Enjoy!










A sports page wouldn't be complete without a car ad. Right? Haha

My very first memory of watching baseball on TV was this series I was nine years old.

This is the first World Series I remember as well. What a trip down memory lane - love seeing the old ads in the paper too! A new Yugo for less than a hundred a month? Thanks for sharing lawnmowerman.

Matt ... here's my addition to your thread. My ticket to Game #6. Best game I have ever been to.

An argument could be made that the NLCS vs Houston that season was better than the World Series. Not to mention the ALCS.

Does anyone else think this might have been the best MLB playoffs of all time?


I can't believe I am bringing this up because when other people do this I accuse them of name dropping.

A few years ago I went to a bar in Huntington Beach and this guy sits next to me. We were watching a baseball game and we begin talking.

I asked what he does for a living and he points at the television screen and says, "I used to do this."

It was Kevin Elster.

We were talking for a while. Nice enough. I asked him a ton of baseball stuff but wished I would have asked him a lot more.

I now understand why people tell stories like this. Being a huge baseball fan it was a thrill talking to him. Especially in that setting.

Doug, I was watching game 6 at my friends house. I was 16 and my friend was rooting for the sox just because he knew I was a Mets fan, damn him lol.

We were watchng the game on his bedroom floor .Anyway, he was all excited getting ready to celebrate, I had my head literally under the bed waiting for the final out, when I heard this:
