                        LET'S GO, NEW YORK METS

  (Mr. ENGEL asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. ENGEL. Mr. Speaker, baseball has often been called the national 
pastime, and those of us in New York have watched this past week with 
pride as the New York Mets have advanced to the World Series, 
representing the National League.
  I have watched those players play as a team, and they have worked 
really, really hard. Perhaps we in the Congress can learn a little bit 
from them, that teamwork is possible and that we need all of us to pull 
together to move ahead.
  I am going to be at the World Series. I am going to really enjoy 
watching the New York Mets win. I am going to really enjoy the young 
players.
  I want to congratulate the ownership, Fred and Jeff Wilpon and Saul

Katz. I want to congratulate all of the great players of the Mets, from 
Daniel Murphy to David Wright, to Yoenis Cespedes, and the great young 
pitching of deGrom and Harvey and Syndergaard. They really, really make 
us proud.
  I just want to sum up this 1 minute in three little words: Let's go, 
Mets.
