It's weird. The baby looks like Baby Bobby. So it's like it's Bobby v. Bobby.

Sentiment is nice, but 2002 is the better design.

I'm going with 2002 here. A little too black for me but they did it right including Franco and Tug, 86 and 69 and even Bobby and Casey, the team's most charismatic 2 skippers

I sent with 2002 also, though it's missing a Mookie factor. In fact, those eight images narrate a Mets history devoid of Mets of color. Hmmm. And it concludes with three contemporary italian Americans. Not saying, just saying.

I have to sleep on this one, maybe two nights...

Baby. 2002 is a little too black and sepia toned for me.

I had a vision. I was merely an infant, but I could see it all in front of me. I could see the next forty years of my life. I could see those who would define my life for the better. I could see those who would provide me cause to revel, to reflect, to give thanks. I could see it all. I wore almost nothing but what was essential. I struggled, but I stood and I peered off into the distance and saw my future. I can't put that vision aside. It was so clear, so perfectly arranged. Those forty years I saw all came to pass. The vision was bigger than any image of myself, even myself at my birth. And I was quite the looker, you know.

Went with '62, the '02 is nice but not epic-all-the-way YCD worthy.

This poll can use a tie-breaking vote, if there's anyone out there who hasn't voted yet...
