He’s right. It all started with Stearns’ distain for Pete Alonso, a fan favorite who did nothing but produce and play every day as a Met.

Now there are no 1st basemen left, Jorge Polanco is dead, Clifford isn’t ready (or good?) and the Mets are the worst team in baseball

David Stearns. The worst executive in sports. He did this.

The 2024 Mets made me fall back in love with baseball.
The 2025 Mets made me hate baseball again.
The 2026 Mets have me feeling nothing.

They are getting paid millions of dollars to play a children’s game. I think they’ll be just fine.

Stephen A Smith says he’d consider retiring if he got traded from Miami, to Milwaukee 😳

“Your heart goes out to guys like Tyler Herro.. Kel’el Ware… it’s hard going from Miami to Milwaukee. That is not an easy transition to make, socially… When you think about your quality of life from Miami to Milwaukee? Oh my god. I think if it were me, I’d cry. I’d contemplate retirement”

Hey @StevenACohen2 … do you know what the definition of insanity is?

It’s continuing to start Kodai Senga and David Peterson over and over again and expecting different results.

Begging you to make it stop.

This is one of the most lopsided trades I've seen.

Holy shit.

Jalen Brunson on LinkedIn:

“Winning an NBA Championship with the New York Knicks is everything I ever dreamed of. The fans, the city, this organization...This is why I came to New York.

I'm so proud of this team. No matter the situation, we never stopped believing in each other or lost sight of our goal.

With enough work and enough belief, your dreams are possible and you can overcome any obstacle. Whatever it is in life, believe that you belong.

People might disagree but let that strengthen your belief because with hard work, preparation, and the right mindset, anything is possible.

I can't wait to celebrate with my family, my teammates, the city of New York, and everyone who's been here from day one.
We don't win this championship without you!

I also look forward to continuing to support other people's dreams through my work with the Second Round Foundation, where our mission is helping young people determine their own success no matter where they come from.

It is important to me to support the under-resourced, under-represented, and under-estimated, and to ensure that they have the tools, guidance, and belief they need to achieve their dreams.

Thank you, New York. I am forever grateful.
And always remember...The Magic is in the Work.

- JB”
