@awfulannouncing Churn rate is because their non-sports programming is weak. And losing WWE did not help either, because if you watched two PLEs a year, it makes up for cost.

Peacock churn rate raises questions about sports-focused strategy awfulannouncing.com/peacock/churn-…

I'm gonna say this after I finish the book and also during the lockout multiple times: Lords of the Realm is an absolutely fabulous book and is required reading if you want to know way more about the history of baseball ownership and the MLBPA. Should've read it way sooner

@MavrocksGirl He is an excellent supporting actor. You should somehow get him in the remake, maybe as a police character giving David Boreanz crap. (They have worked together in the past I believe). Would be a nice tip of the cap to the original.

Actor Max Martini!

Everybody’s Angel Documentary@EAngelDoc
Love these shots of Stuart and my brother Max Martini, and these with his family. Max followed in Stuart’s footsteps becoming an actor. You may know him from “Saving Private Ryan” “Captain Phillips” “13 Hours” and “Fifty Shades of Grey”. #stuartmargolin #angel

@tasteofadrian @SNY_Mets @sal_licata @WillSammon I am sure Carlos Mendoza is a nice guy who I would enjoy having a beer with. That does not mean he should not be fired for doing a bad job with this team during his stint. If it was not for Grimace/Iglesias waking them up in 2024, his entire stint would be a disaster.
English
WRONG. I’m sure Mendoza is a good man. I don’t mean to throw him under the bus but the reality is he’s soft. He’s had plenty of time to motivate this team and he hasn’t done it. Last year‘s collapse showed how gutless mets are under his “leadership”. Stearns stupidly changed the core and still the same thing, same result. what’s the common denominator? Carlos Mendoza as Manager. he’s gotta go. Sign #AlexCora today

"To make that change now would be for change's sake"
On Baseball Night in New York, @sal_licata says how the Mets could end any Carlos Mendoza speculation, while @WillSammon responds that moving on from Mendoza would just be optics

@TrevorDame As a kid growing up in the 70s I heard how can you like that stuff so many times. Knew what it was, still liked it. But yes. That 36K represented a much greater share of the fans who follow than they get now

Wrestling became so unpopular in the late 70s that in 1980, Sammartino and Zbyszko drew 36,295 at Shea Stadium, an attendance that the collective wrestling world today still only hits a few times a year, if that. Maybe they all came to yell "BOO, DID YOU KNOW IT'S FAKE?"
KING TROLL@Nobody6025
I read your responses and the people you named where very popular in there time, but you leave out how unpopular wrestling become in 70's when the business got exposed by journalist. Hogan brought the business back to mainstream in 80's and business stayed there till today. No basketball fan would ever deny that Michael Jordan was not most important man to basketball. Even tho basketball finals was live in 50's and very popular. It took a downturn in late 70's and was on tape delay. Until magic and bird made it very popular again, but even they would say Michael Jordan was the most important person to what we see today. Hogan was the most important person to the wrestling we see today.

@joeflaccoburner Football only, I pray. Football East would be a great name for a football conference. Maybe when ACC dissolves. Pitt, BC, Syr, U.Conn, Army, Navy, VT, and Temple. If everything blows up, Md. Rutgers, WVA. (although I still think MD should go back to ACC traditional foes.)
English
all this talk about UConn to the PAC 12, I just wanna bring these concepts up again

@DanBartels2 Question - Are the Mets extending Mendoza's contract? If you say no, why wait. Pull the plug now and see if you can get something to change.

Joel Sherman on the Mets:
“I would have patience. This is David Stearns’ mess and firing the manager will not fix a roster in which failed starters keep getting shoved into relief… and the offense looks like something Justin Fields dragged in.”nypost.com/2026/04/26/spo…

@metsbatflip1 Ronnie can be very blunt at times. He is usually less abrasive than Keith, but this season he seems to be speaking more directly more often. He then explained why, but I like his staightforwardness this season.
English
Gary Cohen: “The question is, if Kodai Senga isn’t in this rotation after today, is he even valuable in the bullpen?”
Ron Darling: “No.”

@BarrySchust Dave DeBusschere did it in basketball, shortly after his two-sport career ended (basketball/baseball)

Frank Robinson: Triple Crown winner, 2x MVP. Player Manger for Cleveland (1975-76). Not so common these days. Can you go back in time and name another player-manager?
English
@uscfan981 As long as he plays with other mid-carders and comedy guys, he is very good. (I am old-school fan and his silliness works for me in the role with the Miz and R-Truth.) But they need to slow down a bit. Gimmick has a pitch count, so dont rush through it.
English
My wrestling friends, what’s your opinion on this guy?

@Elcapt85 @WrestleClips If was alive today, he would still be kicking ass in the ring, despite the age. He would have made a great old-school heel manager.
English
@WrestleClips If Eddie was alive today could you imagine him teaching nxt as well or somewhere teaching the next generation I encourage up and coming wrestlers to study his work his ring work is genius

This will always be Eddie Guerrero's best ever Frog Splash.
Nick Patrick has me dying 😂

@JakeBrownLive Not sure if I should be rooting for wins, or losses so he is canned.

Heard last night that Carlos Mendoza is on the clock. He has not been able to stitch the new group together. They’re very fragmented and in silos.
If Mets don’t get this turned around soon, he will be gone.
English
@TheSignalCaller No one needs their stupid segments. They have shows on year round for those. NFL Network with theirs as well. Incredibly bush league. You are there to announce picks. Analyze picks. Not do your stupid shit
English
Major fumble by ESPN for not being aware enough to go to the stage to watch Zach Frazier bring a couple kids from Children’s Hospital up to help announce the Steelers pick. Talked right thru the whole sequence. C’mon, guys - at least mention it. Ugh. 🤦♂️
