As a life long suffering Mets fan I was looking forward to this day finally happening.

Let's hope so. It was nice to see them play meaningful games in September this year. Of course I'd watch them just to hear Gary, Keith and Ron. With luck I may even get to see a worthwhile hopeful make a stop in Syracuse for a few games.

Mets can't even do a rain delay right...

It was pure jubilation yesterday in my family. I got texts from relatives everywhere about this. They wanna print shirts that countdown to 2025!

I'm a Yankees fan, so I was highly amused. #LOLMets

@Ellasdaddy, tell A-Rod to stay away!

I can’t see approving a sale to a group of investors rather than the existing co-owner who alone is worth $13.5 billion unless they’re really angling to keep Jeff Wilson employed there. Such a strange situation. They should have just closed the original deal with Cohen when they had it. Now he’s going to demand 100% of the team and toss Lil Jeffy out on his ass.

I sure hope that's the case. Take the money and leave! The Mets have been a laughing stock because of them.

As a lifelong Yankees fan who never disliked the Mets, I hope they sell to Cohen. Their fanbase needs a billionaire Mets fan running the team.

And the circle is complete. LFGM!

And we are assuming things will only get better. I hope so.

I don't expect him to dip into free agency just yet, but if he does, that'll be great. I expect a full front office overhaul first.

Can't ever get worse. The guy is a fan too.

Lo and behold. I called it.

There are big things on the horizon for them. Just read Buster Olney's piece about Cohen ready to pry Antonetti fron Cleveland and give him all the respurces he wants to build a scouting and analytics system and revamp the medical staff. The Mets are about to start throwing around Yankee-Boston-LA money annually...
