[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

I think that "red Mets cap" on the previous page is a Negro League cap. The New York Cubans, perhaps?

Y' know, Zvon, that lighting makes Piazza look a little Christ-like, don't you think? The halo effect of it, the gazing off into the distance, the patient endurance in his expression, even the beard...I wonder if he wasn't the reincarnation of Jesus on earth, after all.

[Frayed Knot]

Now y'see, I would have thought that if you were going to get up at 4 in the morning to make Piazza jokes you would have jumped on the previous picture instead.

Maybe something along the lines of;
'Hey look, it's a shot of a broken down Italian icon ... and he's standing in front of the Coliseum'

[Elster88]

Good one LFK.
