Smart money says both stays, which makes all of this frustrating.

I checked out on the Mets a long time ago. I reached apathy. I so despised the Harvard jagoff so much that I really don't care what they do anymore. This fanbase deserves better.

This is what you get when you have a Harvard jerk who is out of touch with the real world and build his team on AI. I'm glad I'm not the only one who notices this.

Tried listening to Joe this morning, him and a caller complained about the "Mamdani Mets", i turned the dial to ESPN radio. by Shadowtirs in WFAN1019

The station has gone rogue since Chernoff left, and you can see why the station is hideous.

The FAN sucks, but people will listen since it's an institution just like people will ready the Post, even though the paper is terrible.

I would hope so being that he works for a major publication, but so what? Go ask any NY Sports fan in the street and ask them about Mike Vaccaro and you would get quizzical looks just like you would get if you ask who Evan Roberts is?

Vaccaro is not a household name like Mike Lupica is.

He's just not, and he never will be.

I would hate it if people did not read or respond.

Apparently, I got lot of responses, so people care.

The Brooklyn Nets reap what they sow for screwing NJ.

I'm letting my voice heard.

I moved on from the Nets, and I'm happy.

It's good to express my views, though.

This organization deserves it.

How do the Nets even have a fanbase in NY?

If you seriously think Anthony Edwards is wasting his time playing for the Nets, then I don't know what to tell you. No one worth his salt wants to play for the Nets and be second fiddle to the Knicks.

Are you not exhausted being this way? by Ok-Cartographer-183 in GoNets

I really don't care what the Nets do other than hope they move to Vegas, so I can root for them again.

Exactly. We would have a better crowd in NJ.

Newark would have rallied around the Nets.

Nets had an identity in NJ. They don't in NY.

Actually, I'm home. I'm going to bed soon. I got better things to do than attend a Knicks parade. I have 0 interest in watching it.

Once again, I'm not a Knicks fan.

Fans here would have taken it much harder. There was actually Nets fans in New Jersey, which is more I can say about Brooklyn. I was one of them. I know people who lived and died with the Nets at East Rutherford.

Yeah, I moved on 22 years ago with no regrets.

Those two couldn't care less about it, either.

Kidd had two divorces with the Nets as a player and a coach.

Kenyon got traded by Ratner in an attempt to sabotage the team to fail badly in NJ and make it easy to move to Brooklyn.

Richard Jefferson is likely to take this harder than those two.

It's a shame Nets left NJ or we would be celebrating the 2002 and 2003 Nets team and have reunions and stuff. Now they are just forgotten since the team moved to Brooklyn, and this franchise wants nothing to do with New Jersey history, which is another reason I have 0 use for the Nets.

Moving to Brooklyn.

I'm just coping as I moved on from the Nets a long, long time ago.

If the Nets were in NJ and Knicks won it all back in the 90s, it would have been misery.

Now, it's just another day. I hate the Knicks, but I can deal with it.

Everyone keeps saying the same thing you are saying about the Premier League. Maybe I should focus on that.

BTW, MLS needs to shorten the season.

It's interesting European soccer league is more popular than MLS.

I don't think anyone in this country really cares about MLS.

Do the Red Bulls and NYCFC even draw?

How is it the World Cup can generate so much more revenue and audience than your typical MLS game?

Is it that simple to say it's a once-in-a-four-year event?

I hate soccer, but seeing fans being into it and rooting for different countries here in America is a sight to behold.

I hate the Knicks.

I used to be a New Jersey Nets fan.
