I grew up in Central NJ and it was always easier to go to the Vet than to Shea. We were at the game the day before the trade and remember thinking I saw the last game Nails and the jokester would ever play in blue and orange...I was really sad I remember that trade too.

I wonder if the division this year will stink as much as it did back then, though the Mets did get to one win away from the championship.
