"Brooklyn? Is Brooklyn still in the League?"
Quipped Bill Terry, Giants manager mid-30's, to a reporter who asked him what he thought of Brooklyn.
The lowly Dodgers got the last laugh when they knocked the Giants out of the pennant race late in the season.
Likewise, the Superbas of 1909-11 might have been a bad team, Luke,
but they and Joe Dunn were definitely in the National League.
Ironically, prophetically, sadly, Brooklyn is no longer in the League.
But they were; they used to be--I remember
as a boy....
Wait'll next year--
Let's go Mets!--
