[Edgy MD]

Everything.

Who is this?

[Edgy MD]

Our horrible, hateful, Nazi-mollifying, gropenführer of a president, sitting in row three as Carlos Beltran strikes out to end the 2006 season.

[Fman99]

Wow. Finally, a reason for hate. I mean, another one.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

What a ****.

[Edgy MD]

Desperate to be part of somebody else's bandwagon. 100% typical.

[MFS62]

He probably bet on the Cardinals.
Bastage.

As if that image isn't bad enough, the presence of Trump makes it all the worse.

That's a 2006 Trump who had probably never even heard of Barack Obama. Or Kenya, for that matter.

Heck, a hundred bucks says he couldn't point out Kenya on a map right now.

Kenya? I bet he couldn't find Guam on a map. Hell, tell him to properly place Missouri, Colorado, Kansas, Wyoming and Nebraska and it's an even bet he screws it up. (I always mentally think Colorado is more north than it is, the elevation/cold plays tricks on me.)

[Edgy MD]

But look. He's not even in rain gear, but neither is he particularly wet. He probably spent the whole game in a box (if he was there at all) and then snuck down at the end hoping to bandwagon onto something special.

Because he's a fake and a fraud.

[smg58]

And here I was thinking the thread was about somebody really bad, like Yadier Molina.

Oh, how I wish baseball was the worst thing about this year.

Two years ago, there's a segment of Mets fans who would have considered him only the fourth-most-hated person in that photo.

Well you are the Irish one

Actually I was looking at the players and never looked up at the crowd. He is quite obvious standing there like a golden god, isn't he?

It disturbs me to think there might be a segment of Mets fans who still do.

I couldn't figure out who the third would be. Found Molina and Beltran, and then searched... and there he is. Somehow, he's NOT the most hated person in that photo.

[Lefty Specialist]

I never thought I'd utter the words, "What I wouldn't give for Jeff Wilpon to be president right now."

wow, never noticed either, great observation, in fact, this is a great photograph

[metirish]

BTW, is that Hillary to Trump's left???? , is this image real?, Trump not wearing any rain gear etc

[Guest cooby]

Oh creepy!

Reminds me of one of those ghost picture videos on youtube that I am addicted to watching late at night

I don't see Hillary, but that may be Melania to Trump's right in the rain gear.

[Ceetar]

This just dawned on me.

it was raining?

I was there. mentally, not so much after the point in the photograph, but I have no recollection of rain.

I remember the constant drizzle during Ventura's Grand Single game ,but not this one.

[seawolf17]

It was definitely raining (obviously) -- I remember being at the Greenwich HS college fair that night, and was on the LIE headed home listening on the radio when Endy caught that ball and nearly skidded off the road in the combination of excitement and rain.

[Edgy MD]

Eleven years ago today.

[Guest Mets Willets Point]

His tie points right to Yadier.

No. That's her stand-in, who we have been seeing a lot of lately.
