One of these years I really wish the Mets would have their own version Old Timer's Day. Not an every year thing, just every once in a while. I realize that people like Francesa would likely overthink it and rip the Mets because it's "a Yankee thing" but it'd be fun. Plus I was to see Keith Hernandez at first base again, dammit.

I know they've sucked for a lot of their history, but the Mets really don't ever do much to acknowledge their history, even the good times. Ray Knight was the goddamn 1986 World Series MVP and with the exception of him being the Reds manager for a couple of years I don't think he's set foot in Shea Stadium or Citi Field since.
