So I can't (won't pay money) to read this article.
But I know it's the same article he has written for 40 years.
Mookie Wilson, Mookie Wilson, Mookie Wilson.
The Mets run the city (how is that working out, by the way?), Alex Rodriguez is a steroid fraud but Robinson Cano is a great guy, Jason Giambi is a steroid fraud but Josh Hamilton's home run derby at Yankee Stadium was a greater moment than Lou Gehrig's speech, and the Yankees' GM is a perennial stupid dum dum head.
There's not much to add about Gooden at this point.
The Mets' ownership disowned him for a long time because he was a drug addict.
Uniform numbers mean something to players and fans, and the Mets gave #16 to some real slobs in the post-Gooden era.
I'm happy for him to get his number retired. He deserves it.
Which reminds me: The Yankees should do the same for Winfield, so this doesn't happen. Look at the record, simple as that.
