I got two things to say to you:

1) As to the case having “only gotten stronger” against the Wilpons, that’s another laugher! Perhaps you missed the news about Peter Stamos, Picard’s supposed main witness, never having warned the Wilpons about Madoff in terms of “fraud” and actually telling the Wilpons on numerous occasions that Madoff was one of the “most honorable” men he has ever met? LOL. Picard has clearly been revealed to be a liar.

2) Here’s what I bet … the Mets either come in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd this season. Off the field, the Wilpons continue to be the controlling owners of the Mets throughout the next two years. See, two can play that game! But actually, this is consistent with what I’ve been saying about the Mets both ON and OFF the field on this website since I’ve been posting here.

Off the field: The case continues to look worse and worse against the Wilpons. Despite your spin, the case has only gotten stronger against them, and their ethics and intelligence are seriously in question. Furthermore, the fact that they have been hemmorhaging money lately and required a loan simply to meet their obligations last year(a $50 million one no less), speak to an at best scenario where they are minority owners by the time that drama is finished, and at worst are completely out of any ownership group(‘at worst’ being by your standards, for actual Mets fans, thats best case). Granted, being that this is all going to court, I allow that this portion could potentially take years to get resolved so we may or may not see this happen this season. But it will happen.

And yes, were I a betting man, I would put money on both of these things.

I will always stand by my opinions, right or wrong, because I base them on what if believe are well informed and realistic scenarios at the time.
