There's a lot of good contrast here. Age vs. youth. A deep, timeless topic vs. a hot, flashy one. A bleed vs. a frame. A studio shot that nonetheless feels at least a little naturalistic vs. a live shot that feels at least a little composed. The losingest Mets team vs. the winningest.

I think I voted in first round for the Time cover and then stopped after that.
