WHACK BACK AT VAC

-

Peter Drago: My wife wanted to travel up to see what was happening at Woodstock, and I told her that no one would ever remember some dumb music festival but they would always remember the first Giants-Jets game. Because of traffic jams, we were still just outside the stadium when we heard the crowd roar for the Homer Jones miss. We had end-zone seats, and I can still see the back of Mike Battle making that leap.

Vac: You missed sleeping in the mud and starving for three days and walking miles and miles to and from your car and trying to avoid the brown acid for that? Why, I’d call that a win, and not just for the Jets! Ron Cole: I’ve been following the Larry Rothschild Road to Ruin this season. Where are Luis Severino and Dellin Betances? Will we see CC again? Let’s see if Paxton/Tanaka and Happ can last more than five innings. Sounds like a soap opera that needs to be cancelled. Vac: I amtrying to envision the dystopian outlook in a world

where the Yankees aren’t on a 108-win pace.

@metjetisle­2: The Mets need to spruce up their bench. Why Aaron Altherr? Tell me there is no other option available?

@MikeVacc: Altherr has been such an automatic out I wondered if Kansas City’s Ned Yostponder­edwalkingA­med

Rosario up three with the bases loaded in order to pitch to him Friday night. Probably not, but Altherr has struggled that much.

Richard Siegelman: In regard to Golden Tate: If my school district had ever given me a $37.5 million teaching contract — with the proviso that I never ingest certain substances — I’d have been sure to check the ingredient­s of every drug I took before ingestion. Vac: I do that anyway. It shouldn’t be that hard, right?
