If David Stearns thinks that building a better championship team doesn't include Brandon Nimmo, Pete Alonzo, and Edwin Diaz, but does include Juan Soto, Cody Bellinger, Framber Valdez, Tarek, Stoubel, Devin Williams, Marcus Simeon, and they actually go out and perform, I could give two craps about who his name is on the back of the jersey.

Like, I'm not a kid anymore.

Like I used to, like when your kid gets traded, I mean, your favorite player gets traded away as a kid, you lose your mind. Yeah, I cried when Tom Seaver got to do. Right. Like, I understand that. It sucks for the kids. But it's like at this stage, if you're a Metfan around my age or your age,

I want to win a championship.

I don't care who's doing it for me.

Same way with Eddie Jockerman. It's like at this stage, if you're a Met fan around my age or your age, I want to win a championship.

I don't care who's doing it for me. Same way with Eddie Jockerman. Yeah, and I understood that. Yeah, I got it. Of course. What do you think Jet fans felt when they first saw a Broadway Joe in a Rams uniform? Yeah, I mean, that's tough. But that was the end of his career, though. You know what I mean? That's that's a tough thing. Yeah. Yeah. I just saw an Omaha Productions put out a little snippet of me and Peyton Manning doing Peyton's place going to where Bachelors 3 used to be with Joe Namath. That hasn't aired yet?

No, it hasn't aired yet.

Oh, yeah.

What are you filming that like a year ago? I put, no, I filmed that out the summer. That was a year ago. No, it's the summer. It was hot. Okay. Peyton had a big old mint coat on and, you know, like Joe, Joe, Joe, Newark used to wear. and we went to where Bachelors 3 used to be.

It's now a dispensary.

We need dispensary?

Yeah. Joe, John McHs to wear. And we went to where Bachelors 3 used to be. It's now a dispensary. Weed dispensary? Yeah, cannabis dispensary. Interesting. So we walked in there in disguises so that people would know who we were. Did you walk in there, pick up a couple pot whistles and some gummies? you didn't no Peyton was trying to get them the

oh he was the only guy that's ever bought bought only one bag of Doritos in there and he was

he's trying to tell them that look you know I do a lot of endorsements for Doritos I could help you out

if you need some more Doritos here that's funny yeah. Yeah, it's very funny. Mark and Westchester, what's going on, Mark? Hey, good morning, guys. I just want to preface this by saying I'm not a huge baseball fan, but as a New Yorker, it's new, so you're on the pulse of what's happening. And my view on this is, you know, it's the Dodgers.

They just won two years in a row.

Like these guys, if the offer is close, these guys want to win, and the Mets product is not great.

So this is a situation where they should overspend, build a great product, and then down

the road, you're not going to have to overpay for guys because your product is winning. So it's like the chicken in the egg, but at some point you've got to keep spending until you're winning, and then these people would want to stay and not go to a proven winner. I mean, Boomer, if you had a chance to go during your career to a team that you know has won the Super Bowl and was going to win again,

wouldn't you want to go there for the same money just because you could win? You know, I'll tell you, I would have loved to have done what Tom Brady did. You know, go play for Bruce Ariens and pick a team that needed a quarterback because the rest of the team was great. You know, it would have made my job easier, but still you have to work and you have to work for it. And, you know, he certainly picked the right team.

But I don't blame Edwin Diaz at all.
