After the @Mets won game 6 of the 1986 World Series I was in the interview room at Shea and asked Mookie Wilson “Do you even realize what just happened?” The room erupted. Thus, I ask you. Did that really just happen? My goodness.

Just one man’s opinion but that’s almost certainly the greatest game in #Mets regular season history.
And probably belongs in no particular order alongside Game 6 1986 NLCS and Game 6 of the ‘86 World Series in the top three games in team history.

Amazing event in Rye, NY tonight. A reunion of Sports Illustrated staffers in honor of the mag’s 70th anniversary. I spent 22 years there and still can’t believe it. Loved that time and those people. So good to see everyone again! And @SInow continues to do great work.

Known the great @Jen_Royle a long time, going back to heyday of @Yankees/@RedSox '03-04 rivalry. She crushed it in one male-dominated industry & doing same in another. Her @TableBoston eatery is awesome. She dishes (wink) on all for @TheMessenger Sports: tinyurl.com/mspekdfx

Saquon Barkely told me he didn't want to play college football at all early in high school, and didn't start taking it seriously until Rutgers offered him a full scholarship based off his JV highlights. Then he ditched Rutgers for a non-football reason.
