Adam Rubin’s headline on ESPN New York is: No ’86 celebration on 25th anniversary
Adam is way more in the trenches than I am…however, I have heard differently and I’ve heard it directly from very good sources.
My belief is that rather than a one-event celebration that the 1986ers will be visible throughout the season, more in line with what Adam says here:
Still, there should be moments this year when individual players from that championship team are recognized.
Clocking in at nearly 9 minutes here is the finished version of “1986.”
As with the other episodes this is a proof of concept made by a fat guy using an iphone and youtube clips. Yes I kinda glossed over the season, the playoffs and Game 7. I try to keep my production time limited to two hours. In theory, as a proper SNY series there would be access to additional clips and players.

Last weekend I headed out to The Berm after the game.
Seems like a cool place to watch a game. I couldn’t get there from my seat during the game, so these are all taken about half an hour after the 10 inning tie last Saturday.
