First vote of the year! I gotta win something for that right?

As I always do, I vote based on the best action shots, so I went with Star Burst, Max Effort and Game Face in this batch.

The words are as important to me as the picture.
And Maxwell Smart set that one apart to me.

I'll see if I can find a standard-sized box of Rice-A-Roni for you.

Worthy of a box of Rice-A-Roni for sure!

Effort, Face and Smart to kick things off for me.

I'm not a fan of covers with new Mets wearing old uniforms (the Derby winner should have a Mets jersey) and I don't like photo-shopped Mets unis but all of those are unavoidable here.

Last year, a cover with Francisco Lindor in an Indians uniform (Newsday's FRANTASTIC!) unexpectedly made it all the way to the Final Four. In the first round it beat a cover with Billy Bean in a business suit, but it went on to beat Mets-uniformed covers of Marcus Stroman and Pete Alonso.
