“My writing is nothing. My boxing is everything”

~Ernest Hemingway
If President Biden did any of that, even a little, the GOP would’ve been screaming “SENILE” at the top of their lungs.

If President Obama even fixed his mouth to say one word of that trash, the GOP would’ve tried to drag him off the podium with torches and pitchforks.

Just a note on the Knicks NBA Cup victory;

Mike Brown saw San Antonio really pestering Brunson in the 4th and put Kolek in to handle the PG duties.

He let KAT sit and Mitch be an offensive board beast.

He sat Mikal while the Knicks were pulling away.

Thibs would’ve done none of that.

If you’re gonna hate on the NBA Cup victory and upcoming banner as a Knicks fan, just a reminder:

• It wasn’t long ago when there was nothing to celebrate, nothing

• Less than 25 wins was the norm

• Season was usually over in December

• Knicks had the worst GMs, coaches and a meddling owner

This NBA Cup thing is excellent.

Amazon Prime did their thing.

Ian Eagle, Stan VanGundy and Dwayne Wade were tremendous.

GO NY GO NY GO NY GO!!

Let the media say whatever, I saw 4 NBA teams playing their asses off, desperate to win the NBA Cup.

And the play-by-play man with Stan VanGundy and Dwayne Wade announcers trio was good to go.

Really like the Polanco move. Not sure about the 1st base thing, but it is what it is.

Hope Stearns is trying to build in the Toronto BlueJays mold of hits (not necessarily HRs) up and down the lineup.

Jorge Polanco is not bad. What position is he gonna play though…

RE: Stearns and the 3 year contracts;

Mets are tied up long term with Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor at about what, 84m per?

Soto is supposed to be one of the top players on earth (Judge, Ohtani, Soto) and Lindor is supposed to be one of the top 10 players in MLB.

Produce like it then…

What’s the 1st thing people continuously say about the Mets and Steve Cohen?

“Who cares, spend the money, he’s filthy rich.”

Ya think free agents and their reps aren’t using that as leverage to run the price tag up all around?

If Stearns is being smart, I’m all for it.

There’s some really - let’s say; “unique” - takes on the loss of Pete Alonso on here.

Phew…😅

In some sort of glass half full Mets retrospect;

Stearns didn’t let Edwin Diaz or Pete Alonso go back and forth in bidding wars to grossly inflate contract numbers.

Last year the Mets gave Pete Alonso a “Go out and find a team that wants you” edict, and this season they let him drive to the winter meetings to figure it out.

David Stearns had no intention of seeing Pete Alonso as the Mets 1B long term.

Is what it is…

I think the Diaz thing sort of dulled my reaction to Pete today. Or maybe I was just convinced that Pete was gone ,anyway.

I'd be less upset about both if I thought there was some plan in place. I'm sure there is; but so far, none of what I'm seeing tells me they're serious about competing.

As a Mets, Knicks and Jets fan, I’ve noticed a few transplants from the bird app in a state of perpetual negativity; hemming and hawing about the Mets moves or not moves…

Repeatedly Debbie downing on the Knicks in the 1st quarter of games…

The Jets? They deserve ridicule.

Or apathy…
