Hard to vote against the wraparound.

It should be an attention grabber. After all, it is a headline. The reporters had been writing all year (well, after the trading deadline and the team got hot) that the team seemed ready to go on an historic run. Putting that on a back page (no matter how well done) is just a self aggrandizing confirmation of what they had already written. Not back page material, IMO. Later

A few days remaining in this poll and it's still tied. Anyone else care to chime in?

Hmmm... by bumping this thread I've managed to convert a 6-6 tie into a 7-7 tie.

I just pushed it to 8-7 by voting for the Jacks. That's just a home run swing right there.

The wraparound cover is just very well done. The post cover is much too busy...

Benjamin Grimm Jan 11 2016 06:07 PM Re: 2015 Tabloid Cover Derby Round 4.4.1

8-8 now. This one may be headed for tie-breaker territory. A few more days to go, however.

A wrap around with a nice Metly layout, they even got the N Y in there and the greatest logo known to man and the universe. That. Could. Go. All. The. Way.
