Steve Cohen - English
The 2025 MLB season ended in the most painful way for the New York Mets, eliminated on the last day, with one of the highest payrolls in Major League Baseball and a steep fall after a promising start. The team not only failed to make the playoffs, but also left enormous disappointment among its fans, who were dreaming of October.
Owner Steve Cohen was quick to face reality. With a direct message on social media, he apologized to the fans for the debacle of the season: “I owe you an apology. You did your part by showing up and supporting the team. We didn’t do ours,” he wrote on X. His statement was a public acknowledgment of the collapse and that, despite the investment, the project did not work.

Steve Cohen admits mistakes after Mets’ elimination in 2025
After the loss to the Marlins in game 162, the Mets were left out of the postseason depending on an unlikely combination of results. Despite leading MLB with a 45-24 record in mid-June, the team played the last three months as one of the worst in baseball. The free fall included injuries, questionable decisions and a noticeable disconnect on the diamond.
Cohen promised a thorough review of the sporting project: “We will determine the obvious and less obvious reasons why the team did not perform up to expectations,” he said. He also thanked the fans for their dedication during the campaign and called the result “unacceptable,” assuring that the passion of the fans continues to motivate the organization to improve.
What’s next for the Mets in 2025-26 free agency?
The offseason is expected to be hectic, and one of the main topics will be the future of Pete Alonso, who has already announced that he intends to test free agency. His departure would be an additional blow to a roster that needs to strengthen its pitching staff and find stability on the bench.
The team will also have to decide whether to keep manager Carlos Mendoza, who has been questioned for his lack of reaction to the team’s collapse. Meanwhile, figures such as general manager David Stearns are already in talks with the owner to define the way forward and avoid another failure in 2026.
Steve Cohen has faced the music, but now fans are waiting for action. The talent on the roster is there, but the execution was poor and the direction erratic.

Kansas City, on the other hand, has played 17 Monday night games since 2011, including multiple times during three different seasons since Patrick Mahomes became the starting quarterback in 2018.

Carson Beck on Bear Bets: ‘You’re Supposed to Hate Florida State’
Carson Beck has never liked Florida State. From growing up in a Florida Gators household, to facing FSU in the 2023 Orange Bowl, to playing quarterback for the University of Miami, there's been no love lost between Beck and the Seminoles. "You weren’t allowed to wear garnet and gold in my house," Beck said while appearing on Thursday's episode of "Bear Bets". "Nobody ever liked Florida State — anybody that was close to me, nope."That animosity is at an all-time high for Beck this week as he leads No. 3 Miami against No. 18 Florida State at 7:30 p.m. ET on Saturday.

Nikola Jokic Says He Wants To Be ‘A Nugget For Life’ After Turning Down Extension
The Nuggets gave Nikola Jokic what he wanted this offseason, adding the kind of depth the Oklahoma City Thunder boasted when they survived a seven-game second-round series with Denver on their way to winning the NBA championship.The expected payoff isn't just in a deeper rotation and fresher legs come playoff time, but also in a colossal contract extension for their superstar next summer.Jokic bypassed the opportunity to sign a four-year, $212 million deal this summer because next year he can sign that same four-year extension for $293 million."I mean, I don’t think about it," Jokic said. "I think those contract extensions come as a reward, as something that is natural to the sport. Especially in today’s NBA how you see how the salary cap is growing and everything."While Jokic, who is entering the third year of his five-year, $276 million […]
