Mets now 22-33, same record that prompted seemingly pivotal team meeting in '24 - called by Lindor at least partly as reaction to J Lopez's glove toss. No indication Peterson's failure to back up plate produced similar DEFCON response. Prob no OMG miracle coming this year either.

In 1943, the Gestapo finally caught Raymond Aubrac — one of France's most wanted Resistance leaders. He was sentenced to death. His execution was days away. His wife Lucie was six months pregnant. Most people would have hidden. Would have grieved quietly and prayed for a miracle. Lucie Aubrac did something else entirely. She obtained forged identity papers, constructed a cover story, and walked straight into the office of Klaus Barbie — the man history would remember as the Butcher of Lyon — and convinced him to grant her a visit with the condemned man. She wasn't there to say goodbye. She was memorizing guard positions. Counting minutes. Mapping the route the prison truck would take. On October 21, 1943, that truck rolled through the streets of Lyon carrying Raymond and other prisoners toward what should have been the end. Lucie had spent weeks quietly assembling a team of Resistance fighters, planning an ambush with the precision of a military operation. When the truck reached the ambush point, the team struck — fast, coordinated, and without hesitation. In the chaos of gunfire and confusion, Raymond Aubrac was pulled free. Lucie — visibly, unmistakably pregnant — had organized every detail of his liberation. They went into hiding. Weeks later, Lucie gave birth to their daughter in a safe house while German forces searched for them across France. When liberation finally came, the Aubracs didn't merely survive — they rebuilt. Raymond became a celebrated engineer and entered public life. Lucie became a historian, pouring decades into ensuring that the women of the French Resistance — so often unnamed, so easily forgotten — were written permanently into the record. They raised three children. They traveled the world. They argued and laughed and grew old together. When journalists asked Lucie, years later, what had compelled her to risk everything that October day, she didn't hesitate. "He was my husband. What else would I do?" Lucie Aubrac passed away in 2007 at the age of 94. Raymond — who had once needed a commando team to be freed from a German prison — lived on until 2012, reaching 97 years old. In his final years, he continued speaking publicly about the Resistance, about memory, about the obligation to tell the truth. They had been married for 64 years. Not a love story built on grand gestures or perfect circumstances. A love story built in occupied France, in safe houses and forged documents and a prison truck ambush on a Lyon street — forged in fire, and never broken. True love doesn't wait for rescue. Sometimes, it does the rescuing

WHERE DID THE MONEY GO? According to several published reports Trump's Board of Peace is broke. Just four months after it was created, and after a number of countries pledged a billion plus dollars- the organization has no money? Where did it go? Your Thoughts?

Imagine time traveling back to 2020 and telling yourself that in 2026 James Dolan would be a more beloved owner than Steve Cohen

YES!

The Mets have a record of 22-33 After 55 games, that record matches the low point of their 2024 season (the Mets would remain 11 games under .500 that season at 24-35 before getting hot)

I have been a big Mendoza supporter, but he seems to tame to get the best out of a bunch of laggards on this team. Not the biggest problem for sure (#FIREDavidStearns), but a fast-growing concern.

While we have a minute Knicks fans, what player(s) from the dark years did you hold an irrational soft spot for despite the fact that the team was bad and they might not have been very good either? Mine are Jared Jeffries, Lance Thomas & Kadeem Allen. Honorable mention KOQ.

FUCK NO!

So @TomFriedman essentially supports #Trump's war of choice and STILL hopes #Iran can be diminished to the point where the #Saudis & #Netanyhu fill the regional void. That's a win? God save us from #NeoCons and Trump. It’s Crow, Mr. Trump, Not Lobster nytimes.com/2026/05/26/opi…

Is there anything more ignorant than #NBA awards voters?

David Peterson was just booed off the mound at Citi Field. He allowed six runs in 5+ innings and is responsible for another runner on base. Peterson was coming off four consecutive solid outings, but his ERA still stands at 5.57.
