Still the gold stand to which all others are measured. Shea's version of Camelot.

So, a pretty, inspiring sham?

Wasn't thinking about the sham portion. Pretty and inspiring fit, though.

Lee Mazzilli and his fictional wife in Tony 'n' Tina's Wedding.



Ray Knight, Nancy Lopez, and kids, circa '88.

[seawolf17]

Nancy's Wikipedia entry says she's no longer married to Ray as of 2009. That makes me sad, because I liked that they were this ubersports couple back in the day.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Ron Darling gave all kinds of props to Ray Knight in his talk at the qbc event. He was such a "winner" etc etc. It didn't explain his performance in 1985.

[Edgy MD]

That's a surprise to this reader, too.

Hey, who's the wife in between Buddy and Yvonne? Why is Bun E. Carlos behind Tom? Was he on the flight?

Not sure I'd've gone with the red background there, People cover editor.

I'm pretty sure that's Roman Polanski, not Buddy. I don't know what he's doing with Yvonne Harrelson, but that's their business.

I thought Polanski, too, as soon as I posted the pic.

After the Mets won the World Series Bill Shea had these made and gave them to all the wives of the World Champion Mets. I never knew of this and that's pretty kool of him.

Now that's a collectors item I'd like to have, one a those. Surely limited, rare, kind of unknown. That looks to be the one given to Mrs. Ron Taylor.

See if you can find a picture of him with Tim McGraw's mom for the "Mistress Watch" thread.

[Frayed Knot]

I think the relationship between Tug and Tim's mom was shorter than the film exposure rate of your typical 1960s camera, so no pictures can exist.

Al Leiter in the upper deck with Lori:

Mets GM who was alleged by Reggie Jackson to have had, while serving in an earlier scouting role, an issue with inter-racial relationshipping.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Oh! I thought it was Don Grant who objected to Reggie on that account. (I guess I'm conflating the whole 1975 Cleon Jones thing.)
