You might think that, but you don’t know what is going on in his head. He’s publically expressed interest in the Mets. He may have in fact grown up a Braves fan, but he may see this as an opporunity to get in on a big league team.

Let’s read his actions and not his mind.

Donal, I believe the city where u are borm,lived bears more on team fandom preference than how a city treats u. Atlanta’s behavior in the 60s was not worse than Mobile,Selma or other Southern cities. As Atlanta was the singular baseball city below the Maso-Dixon, the liklihood of altyernative choices for a kid to root was his hometown one esp in such proximity to Aaron’s career.

Ya, because Atlanta and the South were so good to his family, what with the dogs and the hoses and the beatings and the arrests and the EXPLOSIVES THROWN THROUGH THE LIVING ROOM WINDOW!

How about you appologize for acting like you know what is going through the mind of a man you never met? Or maybe read the articles where MLK III has publically expressed itnerest in purchasing a share of the Mets.

Bad choice of comparison…. ever consider MLK3 is likely a lifelong Braves fan?

u should just apologize, take the blame for extremely IMPROPER BAD TASTE & be gone, leave the prose to those with the proper perspective & life experiences.

des it seems according to one arthur friedman,vice president of sterling equities,madoff was pissed because saul(uncle fester) katz kept braggiing to his buddies about madoff.katz would in turn send unsophisticated investors to madoff.a quick summary of wilpon mob accounts:freddye 57 accounts 52 mil,saul 68 acc 45mil,sauls wife 6 acc 35mil, freddyes wife 6 acc 24 mil, jeffye 62 acc 37mil,ritchie wilpon 60 acc 23mil,katz brother 59 acc 19mil,katz daughter 44 acc 33mil.the other katz and wilpon children had equally large accounts as pointed out in the post.methinks the wilpon fortune is tied totally to bernie madoff…plain and simple.

Ya, your joke is falling flat. It just doesn’t line up with the point you’re claiming to make.

send your money to the wilpon mob trust me they will take it.lifelong has enough mental capacity to understand the wilpon mob.he has enough class to go after them and their front man alderson.

All you are illustrating is what an ingnoramus you are and that you are incapable of being objective because you got your head up your ass. What is your problem are you really that ignorant? Give me your address and I’ll send you some money to buy yourself a clue. And some class.

I intend to write posts like the Wilpon’s and Sandy Aladerson talks. Everything I write is either a lie, truthful or somewhere in between depending on the outcome I need. Basically, I’m a dishonest prick.

By: Lifelongmetsfan

Lifelongmetsfan — Mon, 07 Feb 2011 20:01:54 +0000

I know. I was being sarcastic. It’s all a game. Anything coming from anyone associated from the Mets means nothing. We the Met fans get screwed and are doomed for the next 3-5 yrs.

By: Lifelongmetsfan

Besides it’s a mute point. The Wilpon’s have stated and been quoted many times as saying that their personnel money invested in the scandal is separate from New York Met monies. In addition Met GM Sandy Alderson has stated over and over again that the Wilpons have not placed any financial restraints on him in terms of signing or obtaining players. Every time I write otherwise everyone jumps all over me, so I am saying now; ok Lets take the Wilpon’s and Sandy Alderson at their word.
I mean really.. why all this speculation? The Mets are in fine financial shape! The Wilpons say they are! The Mets WILL be comepteive in 2011 Sandy Alderson says they will be! I mean really! Why would the Wilpons and Sandy Alderson be dishonest to their fans?

“Minority” in this case refers to the fact that the person purchasing shares would have less than 50%. Like a numerical minority, not the ethnic or racial minority.

baby al, I missed but will try to check it out online. Thanks.

I find the suggestion made by this article that if a minority should purchase 25% of the Mets suddenly everything is “ok” offensive. I thought my “Dear Abby” post illustrated this point quite clearly.

have no idea what your point is. but if u are comparing the wilpons with bank robbing i can dig it.hopefully an arrest will follow here to.other than that your point seems well …..pointless.
