What a great clinch last night at Citi Field, first one ever.
What made it even more special for me is that I ran into my old friend basketball legend and former St. John’s All-American Chris Mullin. Chris is a die-hard Mets fan and I mean die-hard.
Chris is not one of those people who came around in only the good times. He is true to the orange and blue. Chris was there at Shea Stadium in the early 1980’s when we weren’t winning anything. He championed the 1986 team which won the title. When he was the GM of the Golden State Warriors Chris always came to see us play when we were in San Francisco.
Johnny Franco and I always made it a point to see any St. John’s game we could when he was coaching. I’m just glad he was there to see last night and I could celebrate with him. One of the best ever to play the game and one of the best Mets’ fans ever.
