'Naked Citi' made me laugh.

Damn, that Sunday loss to WSH broke the Mets' momentum and helped WSH regain their footing.

I seem to be the only proponent of the Post version of HOLY SHIRT!, which I chose over the News's because it's nice to see Conforto's face (and I like the shirt rip joined already in progress). “LU GOTTA BELIEVE!” ranks with the various references to “SYN” in the “stop trying to make ‘fetch' happen” realm. AMAZIN' is attractive as all get out, but I'd have saved that he'd for a playoff berth clincher or higher. Interesting that little is allowed to speak for itself without shouting. I don't think the otherwise perfect STREAKERS! really needs the exclamation. It works better with PINCH US!, but also unnecessary. Or UNNECESSARY!

This is true, but I liked the photo and page composition and clicked anyhow.



I was fond of that game because I went out that night and made not one, but TWO friends.
