Alright, so you wanna know who owns them Mets, huh? Well, lemme tell ya, it ain’t no simple story like who owns the chickens next door. This fella, Steve Cohen, he’s the big cheese now.
They say he’s a billionaire, got money comin’ out his ears. I ain’t never seen that much money myself, but that’s what they tell ya. He bought the team, see? Spent a whole lotta dough, more than I could ever imagine. They say he’s from Connecticut, made his money with some fancy company, Point72 somethin’ or other. Sounds complicated to me, but all I care about is if he can make the Mets win, you know?
Now, before this Steve fella, there were other owners, of course. I remember back in the day, some company owned them, Doubleday somethin’. They bought the team from Miz Payson’s family. That was a long time ago, way back when things were different. Folks weren’t throwin’ around money like they do now, that’s for sure.
- Steve Cohen bought the Mets, that’s the main thing.
- He’s super rich, a billionaire they say.
- Before him, there was a company and some lady named Payson, but that don’t matter much now.
This Steve Cohen, he seems alright, I guess. He says owning the Mets is like… what’s that word… “fill-an-thropic.” Sounds fancy, like he’s doin’ it outta the goodness of his heart or somethin’. Maybe he is, maybe he ain’t. All I know is, he better get them Mets winnin’, or folks ain’t gonna be happy. You can’t just throw money around and expect things to fix themselves. Gotta have some smarts too, and a little bit of luck, I reckon.
They talk about him spendin’ all this money on players, big contracts, millions and millions of dollars. Heard about that fella, Juan Soto, got a huge contract. Folks were gossiping about it down at the store. That’s a lotta money, I tell ya, more than anyone in our town has ever seen. But hey, if it makes the Mets win, I ain’t complainin’. It’s just hard to wrap your head around all them zeros, you know? Back in my day, things were simpler. You worked hard, and you got what you got. Now, it’s all fancy numbers and big talk.
People used to joke about the Mets, you know? Always crackin’ wise about how they never win. It’s been goin’ on for years, this kinda talk. But maybe this Steve Cohen, maybe he’s the one to change all that. Maybe he can finally bring a championship to New York. That’s what all us fans are hopin’ for, anyway. It’s been too long, too many years of waitin’. We deserve a winnin’ team, that’s what I say. And if this Steve Cohen fella is the one to give it to us, well, then he’s alright in my book.
So, there ya have it. Steve Cohen. He’s the man who owns the Mets. Remember that name, ‘cause he’s the one holdin’ all the cards now. Whether he’s a good owner or a bad owner, time will tell. But for now, he’s got the money, and he’s got the team. And that’s all that matters.
