Distressing reports on Tuesday say Steve Cohen is pulling out of the deal to buy 80% of the Mets. That sound you hear is Mets fans all over the tri-state area breaking anything and everything in sight.
Barstool Radio was the first to report the news, so no one really knew what to make of it. I mean, Barstool Radio?! But then the New York Post confirmed the story, which means it is almost certainly true. Quoting sources, the paper writes:
Cohen is deeply unhappy with the Wilpons changing the terms of the deal at a very late stage and has decided to walk away.
