I'm a Mets fan...


and I still think it's the best sports movie I've ever seen. It's on par with Field of Dreams. Congrats Billy Crystal and cast.

You should check out "Last Play at Shea". Billy Joel (and some surprise guest) play at the stadium before they tear it down. It's a tribute to the stadium, to the fans, to rock and roll music.

It was a one hour show on Showtime, I believe, but I found it on youtube. You'd enjoy it.

It's a really great baseball movie and even people who know nothing about baseball can enjoy it because it's a character movie above all.

Much better than 42, imo, which missed a lot of opportunities for the sale of overdone drama.
