Barry and Jeff, and New Yorkers et al.....first, I will say I'm sorry your Mets lost to the Phillies. But, it's only pure justice that when it
came down to a contest between these two teams, the better team won.....don't take my word for it......the Phils were 12 - 6 over
the Mets this year.

As one who rooted for the Phils, I had low expectations due to their lack of pitching. But, Rollins, Utley, Howard, Rowand and Burrell
proved to be a formidable hitting crew. And, there was anothet bit of "magic" that carried this team.....to steal a past expression
from your Mets...."you have to believe". And, they did, as the Phils came back from deficits 50 times this season....that was the best
comeback performance of any other team in the majors.

Yankees and Phillies....a repeat rendezvous of the 1950 season.
