Lol. Me too. The Mets are my favorite sports team and Straw, and Ken Griffey Jr., had the illest swings I ever saw. When I was a lil n!gga I wanted to be them at the plate :heh:



I taught myself how to bat left handed to be like Awesome Strawsome. Saw him play mad times at Shea. When he went to the Dodgers i stopped fukking with Baseball completely for years.

I converted from Met fan to Yankee fan when they brought Doc & Darryl on. Also, Darryl had a low key good year at DH for that chip. 24 homers and shyt.

It's crazy how Straw and Doc careers went left. Two of the most talented athletes NY ever saw and they were sure to be hall of famers. The party life, drugs, women and alcohol destroyed them. Those 80's Mets teams shoulda definitely won more than 1 'ship.

Yea, Lenny made a fortune and went bankrupt. Did some time in the joint too for his scheming.

And RIP to my man Ralph Kiner too. Met legend.

The way they survived is admirable though. I legit had the :lupe:face every time their name was mentioned on the news. Didn't think they were gonna make it. I know Gooden might still have some problems.

I literally :mjcry::to:when Straw made his comeback.
