Aflame? Not another Met denying he is gay, is it?

[ashie62]

My official guess is Vladimir Guerrero is a Met

[metirish]

It's got to be something to do with the 'Fan or SNY type news.....

[Guest attgig]

wow he's annoying talking about the colts/jets... i shouldn't have started listening early.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Derek Jeter has agreed to give the Mets intangibles tutoring during the off season...

[soupcan]

I'm going to guess that the news is that the Mets have increased their offer to Bay.

Off the deep end crazy. Just relax, dude. You're not a small guy; you're going to give yourself a coronary yelling about Rex Ryan. Really, who cares?

[ashie62]

Bay is a Met

On second thought... keep on keepin' on!

(BTW: Details, please, when they're available? Some of us can't go internet-radio in the office.)

[Guest attgig]

molina wants 3, mets are still at 1 + option
early next week signing of bay.....pending physical

according to him

[metirish]

You know he's just making this shit up......

[Frayed Knot]

and the announcement iiiiiiiissssssss

[drum roll] ...

1) Molina still holding out for a 3rd year - still quite a ways apart

2) Bay signing will be official by next week - physicals pending etc.

He's seriously going to bust an artery over Ryan wondering why the Jets aren't being given any credit for beating the Colts.

"YOUR TEAM IS A CHARITY CASE!!!" You can almost see the spittle flying out of his mouth. It is very entertaining.

[Guest attgig]

well, I guess that means that the mets won't bend over backwards for molina.... that's one positive....

[Guest Edgy DC]

Hey, if it gets over a dozen uses browsing the forum, go Francessa!

[Gwreck]

Bo-ring.

Wanted good news, ie. Jerry fired; Omar fired; Dave Howard eaten by shark, etc...

[Guest Edgy DC]

You realize that by "breaking" news of a deal imminent (a week off, but imminent), he's setting the Mets up, right?

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

I guess Bay realized that Beruit wasn't going to get that expansion franchise after all.

[Frayed Knot]

I guess that means that the mets won't bend over backwards for molina.... that's one positive...

Both halves of that are positive as far as I'm concerned (with the usual caveat of the price for Bay not being too high)

It's also a lot more info than I expected.
Even considering that nothing he said is fact at this point, I didn't even expect it to be anything about players. All of which leads me to wonder how and where he got his info and why he felt so confident sitting on it for nearly 24 hours. What it adds up to, IMO, is a bone thrown to him by Omar personally.

[HahnSolo]

I don't like Francesa, but he and Omar are close (or so Mike says). So I would guess that's his source.

[soupcan]

But don't you think if he got his 'sccop' directly from the horses mouth he would have made a bigger deal about it?

Yeah - he promo'd that he'd have news but kinda just shrugged it off when he finally got around to it and went right back to football. Odd.

[metirish]

I guess he will claim that he scooped them all with the news.

It's because-- given a choice-- he'd rather YELL and be right than just be right.

[Guest Edgy DC]

wait so this deal is unofficially revealed before the extended plan deadline but not officially announced until after...[/quote:1lko5hsq]

[Farmer Ted]

Hoe did FranFatso trump Rosenthal, Heyman, et al in this story? Weird.

[G-Fafif]

If Bay isn't a Met, what will Francesa's excuse be? The physical? Some nebulous eleventh-hour offer from somewhere else? That it was Rex Ryan's fault? Or will he just insist, "I NEVER SAID BAY WAS COMING TO THE METS!"
