Always liked him.
All year McNamara had been putting in Dave Stapleton as a defensive replacement. He said he thought Buckner deserved to be on the field for the final out. What a moron. Buckner could barely tie his own shoes at that point. I wanted to kill McNamara for years, until the finally won. Back when I have a shit about sports.
McNamara managed for 19 years with a winning percentage of .485. Gotta love the old boys network.
He’s still alive while Buckner took the blame and got Lewy Body... horrible.

I never saw that play when it took place. Being a Yankees fan, that World Series was my worst nightmare. The last thing that I wanted to see was the Red Sucks celebrating. So, instead I went to the movies with my then girlfriend. She was definitely not Mensa material and her face was slightly above average. However, she had huge cans. So she was worth the large popcorn and drink investment. She can probably play soccer with those puppies now.

i was at el toritos on jericho turnpike for game 6. yankees fan but was banging a chick that was a huge mets fan so we did some blow and i watched teh game hoping to get a victory hummer. there were 6 of us, my buddy paul and his girlfriend and a buddy of his and his wife, the guy was a sound engineer for the rolling stones and they were cutting an album, i think 'dirty work' if i recall correctly. anyway as we re leaving he gives paul a cassette of the songs before the album came out but it's like "his only copy" so don't fuck it up. we go back to paul's house and after everyone gets the carrot wet we meet back up and go out to the deck to drink some more and listen to the tape. of course paul's shitbox cassette boombox player commences to immediately start eating the valuable tape. i'm laughing my ass off doing rails with my gf watching the guy stick a number 2 pencil in the hole and trying to rewind the mangled twisted "only copy."
oh yeah and the mets won

And then one night my old man bit into a taco and found a metal wire in his mouth. It was like floral wire. Waiter played dumb, meal was not comped, and we never ate there again.

Always felt bad for the guy, but as a Yank fan, totally enjoyable. Had to say, Yankee or met fan, that Met team was a p*sser and the ensuing WS win was alot of fun here in NY. I remember watching people dancing on top of moving city buses inching down traffic on Bell Blvd. in Queens. But yeah, Buckner was clearly hobbled and should not have been out there. i was at el toritos on jericho turnpike Lol wow. Blast from the past. Been there many times, just passed the old spot a couple of days ago and thought about those days.

wonder if that made him go crazy... I'm sure he didn't think about it every day over the last 33 years while living (in exile) in Idaho.

McNamara should have caught more hell than Buckner, a terribly managed game

Except he came back to a long standing ovation in 2013 to throw out the first pitch. SO ONLY 27 YEARS. So haha jokes on you MR. POOPYPANTS. Also, who can forget the Curb Your Enthusiasm episode.

Diehard Mets fan growing up....except that game 6 when I turned off the TV late in the game because I couldn't stand watching my team flame out miserably....only to miss one of the most memorable moments in baseball history.
Karma sure kicked my ass for quitting on my team that day...now I watch jets games to the horrible end every season because there's always that chance.
Just kidding...we know there's no chance..watch anyway...just don't give a damn. FML.
