OH MY GOD IT'S FUCKING ACTUALLY HAPPENING (maybe)

IT MIGHT ACTUALLY BE HAPPENIGN THE WILPONS ARE SELLING TO STEVE COHEN ITS MOTHERFUCKING HAPPENING HOLY SHIT MY LIFE IS FINALLY BEGINNING

i wanted a CHANCE to win the world series. FInally, there is a non-zero chance. Selling to a guy who not only is a Mets fan but will reportedly be a "very aggressive spender who badly wants to win". Like that he will be on Yankees/Dodgers levels of spending. And also not be a fucking meddling moron nimrod like those other guys. oh my god. its here. my time. its happening.

We just have to get through the owner approval process come on man

also all this on the heels of the mets walking off the yankees in yankee stadium, an away team walking off something that hadn't happened since 1899

AND on the heels of all the stuff that went down 2 days ago with the Mets poignant walkoff / refusal to play for the racial injustice stuff being overshadowed by the Brodie hot mic slamming Rob Manfred , and on top of all the emotional Dominic Smith stuff. man its been a wild fucking week.

I assume most of you saw Dom's interview and the kneeling and such, really emotional.
If you didn't see the other stuff, basically Brodie was caught on a hot mic/video an hour before the game saying the Mets didn't want to play, and wanted to do a walkoff and Manfred basically wanted to force them to play, allowing them to do the walkoff but wanting them to come back an hour later. And he was slamming the shit out of Manfred for this, calling him a bad leader, etc. Then later, he put out a press statement admitting he thought it was Manfred's idea to force them to play but it was actually Jeff Wilpon's (and both the commissioner and both Wilpons put out statements saying the same), and this was very clearly a lie to protect the commissioner... andit really sucks that all that stuff overshadowed the strong message the Mets players were making by taking the field and then doing the walk-off.

And now, we have THE WILPONS IN THE FINAL STAGES OF SELLING THE TEAM TO STEVE COHEN

WE'RE THERE BABY!!!!!

I still need to wait for the ink to be all but dry obviously since we've seen this shit fall through at the 11th hour TWICE.... but come on. Don't let me down this time. This is it. This is what we wanted.
