Disagreement Over Urinal Dividers Sunk Wilpon/Einhorn Deal

Unlikely Ownership Candidate Of The Day: Charlie Sheen

PROS
  • PA system would blast Wild Thing anytime Sheen is shown on the jumbotron
  • All concessions would be updated giving Citi Field the largest beer and liquor selection in New York State
  • After enough drinks would gladly hit any of the players in-laws, freeing the players from the risk of injury or arrest
  • Keith Hernandez would finally have a drinking buddy within the organization

Mets Hoping New Perks Will Entice Prospective Investors

Sterling Equities which owns the NY Mets, TV network SNY, and a significant position in Madoff Ponzi International Inc. (MadPonz, now selling at 1 penny per share on the NASDAQ) has decided to sell up to 25% of the baseball team.

According to Forbes Magazine, the actual value of the team presently is -$225 million. By my calculation then a quarter of the team should be worth about -$56 million. And who among us really doesn't have that kind of minus money to invest?
