I was laid off from
@YahooSports
on Friday.
This job changed my life. Opening Day 2019 was my first time credentialed to cover a real MLB game. Since then, I've been at every World Series that wasn't in a bubble (and one Olympics that was). I loved it even when I hated it.

Tonight I'll help broadcast the Mets-Nationals game on Apple TV+, the first time I've ever done anything at all like that. Which is, frankly, surreally cool.
When I told my parents about it, my mother — diehard Mets fan — said: "Oh, I hate when it's not Gary, Keith, and Ron."

The reason sports culture often still feels oppressively and exclusively straight white male is because for a lot of people, that’s the appeal of sports. Of course there’s a business model that caters to that, but you don’t have to lend it credence.

Since we will inevitably soon be debating the merits of a man getting “canceled” for his “indiscretion” might I suggest thinking less about him and more about women who work for/around the Mets who shouldn’t have to worry about getting harassed if they reply to a text from the GM

It’s a bad take, a conflict of interest, a sign of where Mendoza’s allegiances lie between her role in the media and as a Mets employee. It’s also just a blatant lie to say that teams weren’t suspicious until Fiers went public. It took public pressure to get MLB to investigate.
