For Today @ 1:10PM

The Mets have come home:

They will be raising The Eastern Division Championship Banner;

& it'll be COLD & windy @ Shea, today, somewhat like the days when the Jets called Shea Home;

It's the next to last Opener @ Shea Stadium, as Citi Field, the Ebbets Field Tribute Park, rises next to Shea Stadium;

That opens in '09;

This Year is the 60th Anniversary of when Jackie Robinson, broke the Color Line in M L B;

The 50th Anniversary Season of the Last Time The Dodgers & Giants, called Brooklyn & Upper Manhattan, home;

The 40th Anniversary of The Impossible Dream in Boston & the 1st Season of Tom Seaver;

& the 30th Anniversary of the 1st Seaver Trade;

& 40th Anniversary of the Last Baseball Triple Crown, by Carl Yastremski of The Red Sox & East End of Long Island;

Happy Opening Day-Enjoy!

Michael
