Podcast appearances and mentions of Jeff Wilpon

The New York Mets are starting walk around like losers on and off the field. Things have to change soon otherwise Steve Cohen is just the next Jeff Wilpon. Plus, Luis Gil is better than Gerrit Cole, how much is Juan Soto getting paid and Rangers Panthers game 5!

Hour 1- David Stearns is turning Steve Cohen into Jeff Wilpon.

Joined today by Patrick Bringley, author of the memoir "All The Beauty in the World: The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Me". Patrick and I talk about him moving from Chicago to New York, switching allegiances from the White Sox to the Mets, and the behind the scenes work that a radio play by play guy does. Patrick tells us about working for the New Yorker and why his brother's illness and tragic passing led to his departure and finding work as a security guard at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. We chat about when Patrick decided to write this book, when he knew he had a hit and what he did when he saw someone buying his book. Patrick shares writing this different type of book where he opened up as a the narrator and still talked about the fascinating pieces of art at the Met. We discuss past thefts in the museum, the similarities of the MET guards to police officers, the secret tunnels under the museum and how he made the time pass. Ten years as a security guard, Patrick talks about what changed over that time, how he changed and when he knew it was time to retire. We go over his favorite pieces of art, the mistakes the curators make and the most annoying types of visitors. We hear about celebrities' that have been in the MET (not for the gala), what he's up to now, and how he snagged Jeff Wilpon's phone number.  All this and more Check out Patrick's IG here: https://www.instagram.com/patrickbringley/ His website: https://www.patrickbringley.com/    

Craig and Evan opened their show talking about the Giants firing Jason Garrett. Craig wonders who within the Giants organization called for Garrett's job & he compares John Mara to Jeff Wilpon. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome back to Two Goddamn Gentlemen!  This week the guys retire failed MLB owner yet accomplished gentleman, Jeff Wilpon (+4) and litigious, nightmare-fuel-faced Russell Greer (-103).  New nominees tonight include Titus Oates- a man whose lies condemned 15+ people to death and Mike Lindell- a man whose lies are nonsensical ravin....I mean, dangerous terrorist threats. This meeting is in session.   Last week's results: Jordan B.

Welcome back to A Pod of Their Own, a show by the women of Amazin’ Avenue where we talk all things Mets, social justice issues in baseball, and normalize female voices in the sports podcasting space.  This week, we begin by discussing Steve Cohen’s impending approval by MLB owners and how Bill de Blasio is grandstanding over a technicality. We also referenced a piece that appeared in The New Yorker about Cohen’s company’s financial past and talked about Jeff Wilpon’s final Zoom call with his employees. Next, we have little sympathy for MLB owners crying poor, although ratings of the World Series have been down this season, despite compelling postseason storylines—Randy Arozarena, Clayton Kershaw, a wild Game 4 ending, and more. Finally, we wrap things up with Walk-off Wins, where each of us talks about what’s making us happy this week, baseball-related or otherwise.  You can listen or subscribe to all of our wonderful Amazin’ Avenue Audio podcasts through Apple Podcasts, where we encourage you to leave a review if you enjoy the show.

Jeff Wilpon said goodbye on a Zoom call Monday afternoon, further paving the way for Steve Cohen to take over and change the fortunes of the Amazins' with his fortune.  Boomer & Gio got things rolling Tuesday morning with some thoughts on the Mets, before shifting gears to football, specifically Clemson quarterback, Trevor Lawrence, who the Booms is hearing is a 'can't miss', being compared to the likes of John Elway, Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck.  How 'bout that?!?!  Give a listen to hear all of that and more.  Enjoy...

Wishin'...and hopin'....and thinkin'...and prayin'... These classic lyrics sung by Dionne Warwick come to mind as every Mets fan read the official statement released that Steve Cohen and Sterling Partners have agreed to a deal to sell him the Mets. Now, it is only a matter of the other MLB owners voting yes and the Mets are finally out of the Wilpons' hands. While analyzing the playoff chances that continue to dwindle after another disappointing weekend, we will look towards the future on tonight's A Metsian Podcast, dreaming of a world with a well operated baseball machine on the other side of the baseball city.

Today's word of the day is 'sampson' as in misspelling my name as in Brody's as in how the New York Mets misspelled Brodie Van Wagenen's name in a press release last night. Why was a press release warranted? Well, Brodie got caught on a live mic talking poorly about MLB commissioner Rob Manfred and owner Jeff Wilpon. What a disaster. How as this leaked? IT WASN'T! The Mets 'accidentally' posted the feed onto the team's website. Woof (0:06). The NBA continues to get things right. Regardless of what your view is on them, just listen to me here. Games will be played on Saturday. After two days of protest. After countless meetings. After getting tangible action items listed. Let's hope change soon comes. But something happened in one of those meetings that needs to be talked about. Patrick Beverley said something so disrespectful to union boss Michelle Roberts that Chris Paul, Udonis Haslem, and other players had to put him in check. Wow (16:55). Review - Lean on Pete (28:20). For the first time in NPDS history - we have the best statement released of all time by a team... the Baltimore Ravens (32:55). So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me if I think that the owner of the Real Salt Lake MLS team should be forced to sell his team after his most recent comments about players protesting (38:30). #waittosee --------------------------- 'Nothing Personal with David Samson' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox, Bullhorn and wherever else you listen to podcasts.   Follow David on Twitter: @DavidPSamson  To watch David on CBS Sports HQ visit https://www.cbssports.com/live/ To hear more from the CBS Sports Podcast Network, visit https://www.cbssports.com/podcasts/ https://www.youtube.com/nothingpersonalwithdavidsamson Learn more about your ad choices.

They guys weigh in on what has been going on in all of professional sports and the MLB as they hold protests and decline to play games in the hopes of spreading awareness to social issues. We break down Dom Smith's postgame press conference, his poignant message and the team's response. We also discuss how Jacob deGrom is head and shoulders the best pitcher in all of baseball, how the team continues to screw him out of wins, the circus double header with the Marlins and Seth Lugo's resurgence as a possible starter moving forward. Bonus: In The Books! NoGame Show Even when the Mets do something right, they somehow do everything else wrong and it's LOL Mets all over again. We talk the video leak of Brodie ripping commissioner Rob Manfred for his attempted hijacking of last night's postponed game, the retracting of said statement with the blame shifting to Jeff Wilpon and the Wilpons' issued statements that blamed Brodie and somehow spelled his name incorrectly TWICE. The Mets do the right thing and somehow, someway, we gotta believe that they will end up on the back page of every newspaper for their side show antics.

On Thursday's show, the guys reflect on a surreal 24 hours in sports history, discuss Aaron Judge's latest injury and react to a bizarre video featuring Brodie Van Wagenen unknowingly talking about Rob Manfred and Jeff Wilpon.

On Thursday's ENN, the guys discuss Michael Jordan's role in assisting the players' battle for social justice. Plus, a bizarre video surfaces featuring Brodie Van Wagenen talking about Rob Manfred and Jeff Wilpon; the guys react in real time...

The Mets have their first winning streak of the year and are just 2 games away from .500 on the season, but, on the verge of a sweep and with the Yankees banging down our door for this weekend, Corona has reared its ugly head. Who's got the rona? Your guess is as good as ours, but this team was sick long before their trip to Miami and the only cure is Steve Cohen. Conforto, Dom and Guillorme have been revelations thus far, however the bullpen continues to look shaky and with Lugo being plucked from the pen and reinserted into the rotation, can the team really hold up down the stretch? Sven Matz ain't the guy whether he's starting or relieving and Diaz can try to fool us all he wants. There's no one that we truly feel comfortable with in a tight spot other than the Quarterican and now he's gone. The only thing that we can truly focus on at this moment is our savior, uncle Stevie. After news broke that Jeff Wilpon hates Cohen's guts and that the ARod group was the favorite to win the bid, KFC and Clem weren't in the highest of spirits. They felt robbed of true happiness and were looking down the barrel of decades more mediocrity, that is, until it was revealed that not even ARod's people think he has a shot if uncle Stevie really wants this thing and BOY DOES HE. As a lifelong suffering Mets fan himself, Stevie told the people loud and clear that he's focused on winning and putting everything he's got behind it. Music to our ears and (soon to be) money in our payroll! Can we make the playoffs? Maybe. Are we going on hiatus now that the team is as hot as ever? Possibly. Will Uncle Stevie save us all? WE GOTTA BELIEVE.

Episode 260 starts with some crazy Twitter topics. The Washington football team hired the first black team president, Alex Smith is cleared for football activities but can't use his foot and cow farts could save the environment as well as some video game talks. We also discuss the best chicken sandwiches and Deion Sanders joining barstool. The Mets had the most Mets weekend as Jacob Degrom misses his start and the rest of the team doesn't show up to get swept by the Phillies. Jeff Wilpon doesn't like Steve Cohen so it's going screw up the future of the franchise. The Nets made the playoffs but don't have much of a chance and then we talk about the track the Knicks are on. Finally, we get to the Islanders dominance of the Caps and their chance to sweep on Tuesday. Our top 5 this week is our favorite Leo DiCaprio movies.

We’re right back where we started in December and boy does it feel great! It’s not that we don’t like the J-Rod group, it’s just that we know how much better life would be with uncle Stevie. Not only will he outbid any competition that dares show their face, but he will still have BILLIONS left over to make this team into a contender. There's legitimately no downside to this sale, unless of course you're that rat bastard, Jeff Wilpon. How mad do you have to be at someone to give away hundreds of millions of dollars? According to the New York Post, very mad. Sources are saying Stevie has got to come in at least $200 million higher than the next closest bidder, otherwise Jeff is selling to them. This silver-spooned scumbag has already cost his daddy and poor Saul Katz once, there's no way they let him do it again right? RIGHT!? Our only other hope is that the rest of the league's ownership steps in to force these clowns to take the max offer. Clem comes up with worst case scenarios for how they could still manage to blow this, KFC makes his pitch to uncle Stevie for his "services" and a new war may be brewing between the Red Sox and Mets' faithful. We don't know when the sale will ultimately happen, but we gotta believe that we'll be parading down the canyon of champions the second it does.

Erich, Mike and Dave are back to give their thoughts on the 2020 NFL, Mike declares the end of the world as Jeff Wilpon and James Dolan are put on a committee that should scare everyone, and talk about the latest episodes of ESPN's The Last Dance documentary on the 1997-98 Chicago Bulls Available on: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/this-is-sportszone/id1477214996?uo=4 Anchor: https://anchor.fm/this-is-sportszone https://anchor.fm/s/d6d4b44/podcast/rss Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4bZFgMI8cIWIeHrR0eBxLa Stitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/s?fid=482591&refid=stpr Breaker: https://www.breaker.audio/this-is-sportszone Google Podcasts: https://www.google.com/podcasts?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy9kNmQ0YjQ0L3BvZGNhc3QvcnNz Overcast: https://overcast.fm/itunes1477214996/this-is-sportszone RadioPublic: https://radiopublic.com/this-is-sportszone-GMY591 Tunein: https://tunein.com/podcasts/Sports--Recreation-Podcasts/This-is-SportsZone-p1272577/ --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/this-is-sportszone/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/this-is-sportszone/support

In Episode 47, Jeffrey, Craig, and a fashionably late Bradford discuss iced tea methodology and then tackle five more (mostly) baseball topics.1. One last Sign o' the Times: The Red Sox report that we speculated might be done by spring training is finally out. Well, I guess spring training isn't technically over yet. 2. Three-Hub Plan: Baseball is 2020 might be spreading to more states where it's 100 degrees in the shade.3. In Rod We Trust: A-Rod and Steve Cohen are back in the Mets ownership mix, and Bradford rides the subway with Jeff Wilpon. 4. Working for exposure: ESPN had an interesting plan to broadcast KBO games, but instead it's just more e-sports for now.5.

Michael Vick was given a second chance in the NFL and made the most of it. Watch the 30 for 30 on him and you'll see a changed man.Does anyone get excited about the NBA draft leading up to the all star game? I'd rather see a game of horse or G league players and WNBA players play a meaningful game instead of a no defense dunkathon snoozefest. The Mets could have been sold for a record $2.6B but the Wilpons want to stay on with the team five years after the sale? Excuse me? The Wilpons need to sell the team and be gone. Forever.

Cuncel the acquisition and Cuncel the Cohen. According to MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred, the deal is dead. We went from our highest of highs to lowest of lows and it's all thanks to that slimy weasel, Jeff Wilpon.  Sources say that at the last minute, Jeff asked to extend his 5-years of team control, wanted (basically) a life-time job in senior management, demanded a raise as COO and requested use of the team's private jet. You can't make this shit up.What else can we say besides this is exactly what we have come to expect from the silver-spooned Wilpon. The guy has been handed everything his entire life and on the one-yard line- staring down a $2.6 BILLION deal, he just couldn't let go.Well folks, Stevie Cohen don't play that. He told little Wilpon to kick rocks and has left our team and our hearts in shambles.When news first broke of the sale we praised Tiki for dropping the bomb, but now it looks as if he jumped the gun. Jeff's ego just couldn't stand people thinking that he got raked over the coals. He couldn't stand Mets fans naming Cohen "the savior" of the franchise and he responded by doing what he does best, ruining our lives.So we are back in the pit of misery, looking for any lifeline we can grab a hold of. We're out on ownership, but we aren't out on this team.We'll still be doing Barstool at the Ballpark and we're WEAPONIZING Citi Field. We are looking for our Man of Mayhem. The guy or girl in the stands to lead the charge and chant in one unified voice, "Sell The Team!" If you think that's you, DM us on @GottaBelievePod on Twitter, @WeGottaBelieve on Instagram or go to BarstoolSports.com/askthemets and tell us why you deserve to be the one to bring down the Wilpons. We're all in this together and we gotta believe that we can get this thing done. 

Mike Silva discusses the breakdown in negotiations for Mets ownership between Steve Cohen and the Wilpon family with Joe Pantorno of AM NY. Joe was one of the first to break the news about the deal between the two sides falling through. 

Lou, Phil, and Sagg open the show talking about the huge trade that sent Mookie Betts to the Dodgers! We evaluated all aspects of the deal for all parties involved. Then we move on to the Mets, and Steve Cohen who is now reported to be backing out of his deal to buy the team because Jeff Wilpon wants more control. Then the guys talk about NBA trade deadline, and they discuss the move the Knicks should make and then the deal Lakers shouldn't make with the Knicks. And finally, a preview of the XFL and our picks for the slate of games this weekend!

Jeff Wilpon, Enemy Of The People. Save Us Steve Cohen!

Longtime Mets owners Fred and Jeff Wilpon are reportedly selling the team to billionaire hedge fund manager (and minority owner) Steve Cohen. Mets fans have long had a contentious relationship with the Wilpons, often criticizing them for mismanagement and not spending as much on free agents as their cross-town rivals the Yankees. The Athletic's Tim Britton joins us to talk about the sale and how it could shake up the organization.Read Tim Britton and Marc Carig's story on Steve Cohen's bid to buy the Mets:https://theathletic.com/1434004/2019/12/04/the-wilpons-are-negotiating-to-sell-the-mets-to-steve-cohen-what-does-it-mean-for-the-franchise/?source=theleadpodcast

They sold...they....actually sold....I....am speechless...but we'll say a lot of word LIVE at 9 when the folks from Mets Fans United join is for this crazy breaking news as we go through all the emotions that were included in this day as Zack Wheeler signed with the Phillies prior to the news about the sale.

LISTEN IN LIVE AT 9!

Mike Silva is joined by Howard Megdal, author of the book Wilpon's Folly, to discuss Steve Cohen as the new principle owner of the Mets. Hear Mike's thoughts on the Mets rotation now that Zack Wheeler is in Philadelphia. 

In this episode of Simply Amazin, Tim Ryder and Jacob Resnick discuss the ousting of New York Mets skipper Mickey Callaway, who could be in line to replace him (Tim's pulling for Carlos Beltran) and Jeff Wilpon feeling "unfulfilled" after the 2019 season. Jacob fills us in on what's happening in the Arizona Fall League, and we talk about how great the postseason has been thus far and how much better it would be with the Mets in the mix.

EMERGENCY PODCAST: The guys needed a day to let it all sink in and gather their thoughts. The flight to Florida, the Brodie conference call, the immediate managerial lists- all of it. And after all that time, we are just left with more questions. The team's future is up in the air and this has now become Brodie's biggest decision of his tenure. The team's got all offseason not to screw it up, but let's be honest, they are still run by Jeff Wilpon. In the mean time, we gotta believe the Twins will stomp out the Yankees' postseason hopes cause that's all we've got left!  

The worst thing that could happen did when Fred Wilpon bought out Nelson Doubleday to become the primary share holder as owner of the Mets. He should have been forced to sell the team by Bud Selig because the money used was acquired through Bernie Madoff's ponzi scheme. As long as the Wilpon's are the owners we may never see another championship. Don't be surprised if Calloway hangs on because he is still owed money. The Wilpon's don't care about the team and constantly walk down the path of mediocrity. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/james-burns52/support

8-9-2019 Passed Ball Show- John opens up this brief filibuster with a little historical perspective about the history of the New York Mets franchise. As awful as the bad is, the franchise has a history of great runs in August and September. Any questions, refer to the seasons of 1969, 1973, 2015, and 2016. The perception exists that the Mets owners, Fred and Jeff Wilpon, are cheap. While they operate the team more like a business than one would like, John does not necessarily agree with the perception. Oakland Raiders Wide Receiver Antonio Brown thinks he is more powerful than the National Football League. The league will continue to prosper long after he is gone. If the NFL was smart, they would call his bluff and see if he has the balls to quit the sport that has given him his livelihood.

The MLB trade deadline is upon us! Some crazy moves have been made, including Jason Vargas being traded for Jeff Wilpon's son's college teammate!? WHAAA!?

  A Metsian Podcast returns LIVE at 9pm ET to break down the hiring of former agent Brodie Van Wagenen as General Manager of the New York Mets! Some see it as a step in the right direction. BVW, as some are abbreviating, was very braggadocio during his presser, and appears confident in his potential as well as the teams. Still, there are some who see this as more of the same with Jeff Wilpon hiring someone he's close to and familiar with. We'll attempt to break it down from all angles and opinions involved. We'll also touch on the death of baseball icon Willie McCovey of the San Francisco Giants. So, join us at 9pm ET for the latest edition of A Metsian Podcast!

Hiring Brodie Van Wagenen represents outside-of-the-box thinking by the Mets. It only works if Jeff Wilpon changes his ways.

In Episode 128 of For All You Kids Out There, Jeffrey and Jarrett bid adieu to David Wright and the rest of the 2018 Mets. We chat about John Vanderslice, David Wright's sendoff, Jeff Wilpon's presser, and the upcoming MLB playoffs in the first half of the show. In the second half, we spend some time discussing every Met on their 2018 Baseball-Reference page. And in the third half of the show we answer questions about Bryce Harper, and Jacob deGrom's Hall of Fame chances.

9-13-2018 Passed Ball Show- John starts the show by calling into the question the decision to have a press conference just to announce when David Wright is playing again. Obviously, there is more to this- likely the announcement that Wright will either be retiring or not playing anymore after this season. If not, what is the need to have COO Jeff Wilpon and assistant GM John Ricco at the same presser. Khris Davis will almost certainly not be playing for the Oakland Athletics after the 2019 season when he is eligible to become a free agent and may even be traded this off season. This has more to do with precedence than anything else and is (and will be) clearly money-driven. Davis, an AL MVP candidate this season and a huge reason the Athletics are headed to an unexpected playoff season, fits the build of a reasonably paid player who is exceeding the worth of his contract ($10.5 million in 2018). Rather than pay him what he deserves, the Athletics would rather either trade him or simply not retain him once his contract runs out after the 2019 season. Finally, defensive pro football players should not be expected to be nice people. For years, since the days of Buddy Ryan, defensive players have been taught to be ferocious, tenacious, and have little regard for the safety of offensive players, particularly the quarterback. And we expect them to be nice guys? The days of the conventional defensive player becoming the best of all time are likely over for that reason. Players that play with that regard today would likely be suspended and eventually blackballed.

September has rolled around, and though we cannot have playoffs specific meaningful games in September, that doesn't mean things can't get exciting. We at A Metsian Podcast will always continue to watch through and through every September, because there is never short of things to see and talk about.  At 8:30 PM ET, Mike Lecolant and Rich Sparago will queue up the 19th episode of A Metsian Podcast with Sam, Rich & Mike. We will discuss the Mets West Coast trip and the successes on that round, as well as Noah Syndergaard‘s first career complete game.  Jacob deGrom broke Dwight Gooden's major-league record with his 25th consecutive start of giving up three earned runs or less. Is there anything else we can say about the man? Of course there is.  Zack Wheeler's ERA continues to go down.  The rotation has been pretty darn good lately, hasn't it?  It sounds like father and son Fred and Jeff are at odds about the type of GM we should have going forward. What would we like to see happen, now that we have that information out there? Who knows how true it is, but it's definitely something different we can talk about instead of our usual Wilpon's hateful bashing. And as always, we will look back in history at the Mets players to where number 19, as well as the 1919 New York Giants, Brooklyn Dodgers, and New York Yankees. So, make sure you join us at 8:30 PM ET for the latest addition of A Metsian Podcast with Sam Rich & Mike!

GM Sandy Alderson takes his leave for health reasons. Now what? Josh has all the news, and the Mets get an emotional win with another Flores walkoff hit. Hear from Sandy, Jeff Wilpon, David Wright and Mickey Callaway on a jam-packed poscast.

Roger and Brian voiced their appreciation for the departing Mets GM Sandy Alderson (03:00), discussed Jeff Wilpon's 'confession' (20:00), wondered if this current Met team is one of the worst ever (32:00), predicted how the triumvirate GM super squad will and will not work (36:00), gossiped about the reported in-fighting between the major league staff and the player development staff (37:30), spoke of the joys of bunting (41:00), chatted about AJ Ramos' season-ending surgery (01:04:00), uttered an uncharacteristic rant (01:07:00), shook their heads over the team screwing up waiting to DL Jason Vargas (01:10:30), and sadly detailed how Michael Conforto admitted he doesn't really like the 'Scooter' nickname (01:20:30).

Kicking off another week in grand style as I deliver the latest and greatest of what's going on in the world of sports. Met fans! Hold on to your hats yet again! Just when you think it can't get any worse. Losers of six in a row, 13 of 14 at HOME and unable to replace starting pitcher Jason Vargas at the last minute, the New York Mets continue to find ways to go further south as a team and an organization. This ‘REELZ Rant is solely on the shoulders of GM, Sandy Alderson and Principal Owner, Jeff Wilpon. I discuss poor transactions, accountability of the franchise and predict how Alderson, if and when, will leave/be dismissed by the team. I'll also touch on the Yankees without Gary Sanchez in the lineup for the forseeable future. Plus, an early look at the NBA off-season, including the UNCALLED booing of NY Knicks #1 pick, Kevin Knox. As well as, where will NY Islanders cornerstone, John Tavares go as the NHL free agent process begins in less than a week. All of that, plus a little more, on this edition of The JAYREELZ Podcast. Music by Bensound.

Mets top prospect Peter "EL POW" Alonso and beat writer Matt Ehalt (The Record/NorthJersey.com) joined the Good Fundies boys in an instant classic*! First, Roger and Brian talked about the Citi Field fire and the plague-ish events transpiring with the Mets lately (01:30), Mickey Callaway's recent motivational tactics (10:00), and Sandy Alderson's interesting math (16:00). Then Binghamton Rumble Ponies first baseman and Top 100 prospect Peter Alonso discussed his new wikipedia-verified nickname (24:30), how watching the 2015 World Series showed him how energetic Mets fans can be (26:30), if he's considering just showing up to Citi Field unannounced to see what happens (27:45), playing in Binghamton (34:10), how his idol Mike Piazza motivated him (38:30), wooden bats (48:00), why he would get rid of all of the new MLB rules (58:50), how teams are pitching him differently after his red hot start (01:03:00), if he can take Piazza in a scuffle (01:07:25), his New York City experiences (01:10:30), his message to Mets fans about players (01:12:30), his thoughts on 'Field of Dreams' (01:18:00), if he is willing to play the outfield if asked (01:18:30), and much more.

In Episode 93 of For All You Kids Out There, it is almost the end of prospect list season so the podcast is gonna get punchy. In the first half of the show, Jeffrey and Jarrett review Orioles Fan Fest and discuss a plethora of Mets news, from Jeff Wilpon's thoughts on payroll, the Mets new medical plan, the Jose Reyes signing, and the Milwaukee Brewers pushing their chips in the center of the table. In the second half of the show we break down the Tigers, Mariners, Royals, and Diamondbacks lists as quickly as possible. And in the third half of the show, we answer your correspondence, spoil the alternate ending to Major League, and analyze a whole lotta professional wrestling.

The triumphant return of BRIAN ON THE STREET and the debut of THAT'S NOT WHAT WE MEANT headline the latest episode of GOOD FUNDIES. After the boys talked about friend of the pod Ty Kelly signing with the Mets (05:00) and congratulated Callie on getting her Citi Field prom pics (07:45), Brian and Roger gabbed about the return of Jose Reyes (10:30) and Jeff Wilpon trying and failing immensely to properly address the Mets' payroll issues (17:00) in their new segment THAT'S NOT WHAT WE MEANT! After the two wondered if a Director of High Performance will matter if the Wilpons continue to meddle in team medical affairs, as reported again over the weekend(36:00), they presented the 2018 edition of BRIAN ON THE STREET. Brian asked Mets trivia questions the only way him and Billy Eichner know how at the #QBC (01:04:00). One of the contestants was WOR's Pete McCarthy, and he was pretty good! Then in the mailbag segment, the boys mulled over whether the Mets will have a higher winning percentage than Trump or the Wilpons' approval rating (01:31:55), who will have the most saves in the bullpen this year (01:34:40), the Mets not signing Jacob deGrom to an extension (01:37:50), who they would take between Eduardo Nunez, Neil Walker, Todd Frazier, or Josh Harrison (01:42:25), if Brandon Nimmo should try the infield out (01:50:55), and if there's a collusion transpiring (01:54:50).

Pete opens the show talking about the comments Mets Owner Jeff Wilpon made to the media today. Harold Reynolds from MLB Network joins the show.

It's the last show of 2017 and not much has changed. Once again, Mets ownership causes Kevin to lose his mind. Kevin has another all-time Mets rant because Jeff Wilpon has no idea what he is doing. 

After Monday and Tuesday were so intense they deserved their own podcast, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday came through with that HEAT. On Wednesday, Kevin and Dave are at each other's throats again after Dave and Frankie spent a wonderful evening at Citi Field with Kevin's mortal enemy and owner of the Mets, Jeff Wilpon. Gay Pat drew out the Barstool critics and anti-semitic neo-nazis with some questionable blogs, which is exactly the opposite of what Dave wanted him to do. That set up the scene for Thursday, where Dave put not one, but TWO cowardly, fraudulent LOSERS in bodybags. If you listen closely, you can still hear Baked Alaska and Clay Travis trying to undo the zippers from the inside. On Friday, Dave is actually around to do the show. Not satisfied with the two bodybags he filled on Thursday, Dave stuffs a horse racing commentator into a bodybag of his own. Dave gets riled up about Roger Goodell and also does some of his own play-by-play while we watch the races in Saratoga. YP gets bodies by Nate, Frankie might secretly be a Nazi and more on this special edition of Barstool Radio.

Its been a rough week for Big Apple Baseball, we lost our dear friends Ron Washington and Joan Rivers, the Yankees are looking done, and we learned Jeff Wilpon hates un-wed mothers. But we won't let that get us down. No, we will podcast on!
