This is the best sports story I've read this week.

[Jim Callis @jimcallisMLB]

So many fond memories of the beer truck in Durham! But I digress ... Check out the https://t.co/wQ0TIA9fHA & @BangorBlueOx for a serialized documentary about the beloved 1996-97 Northeast League club.

The greatest New Yorker cartoon of all time.

After the @Mets won game 6 of the 1986 World Series I was in the interview room at Shea and asked Mookie Wilson “Do you even realize what just happened?” The room erupted. Thus, I ask you. Did that really just happen? My goodness.

[Mike Vaccaro @MikeVacc]

Just one man’s opinion but that’s almost certainly the greatest game in #Mets regular season history.

And probably belongs in no particular order alongside Game 6 1986 NLCS and Game 6 of the ‘86 World Series in the top three games in team history.

Amazing event in Rye, NY tonight. A reunion of Sports Illustrated staffers in honor of the mag’s 70th anniversary. I spent 22 years there and still can’t believe it. Loved that time and those people. So good to see everyone again! And @SInow continues to do great work.

Former colleague @MikeHumePost has some cool ideas percolating, and he's looking for someone familiar with coding to help him build them. More here:

NEW STORY: You've heard of the $2 billion Intuit Dome, the new home of the Clippers next season. Here's the story of Teresa Martinez and her dog, Blue, who live in a small home in the corner of the arena's footprint because the homeowner refuses to sell. https://t.co/mZrAQFEo8U

[Christian Red @CRedRojo]

For @TheMessenger Sports, had the pleasure talking with the great former SI photographer Walter Iooss, Jr. (@iooss_io), on early SI days, Swimsuit Issue, Reggie, "The Catch," MJ and what's becoming a lost art. https://t.co/nf0fhnlWDU

The LA Clippers' new arena looms over the tiny home of a lone elderly woman and her dog. "The construction noise is really bad," says the tenant, who misses her neighbors, and a shady tree. By @ArashMarkazi and @CRedRojo @TheMessenger

Known the great @Jen_Royle a long time, going back to heyday of @Yankees/@RedSox '03-04 rivalry. She crushed it in one male-dominated industry & doing same in another. Her @TableBoston eatery is awesome. She dishes (wink) on all for @TheMessenger Sports: https://t.co/09ORBTlWtq

[Jon Scher @JonScher]

Jen Royle used to be a sports reporter. Now she's an award-winning chef celebrating her fifth anniversary at @TableBoston. How'd she do it? New from @CRedRojo @TheMessenger. @Jen_Royle

[Jackson Thompson @JackThompsonFOX]

Saquon Barkely told me he didn't want to play college football at all early in high school, and didn't start taking it seriously until Rutgers offered him a full scholarship based off his JV highlights. Then he ditched Rutgers for a non-football reason.
