Quote:Report: NJ to Pitch Meadowlands to Mets

Sep 30, 2004 9:01 am US/Eastern
(1010 WINS) (East Rutherford, NJ) The man who will become acting governor when Governor McGreevey resigns reportedly is pitching the Mets to come to New Jersey.

The Star-Ledger of Newark reports Senate President Dick Codey will contact Mets owner Fred Wilpon in the coming days.

Codey and Wilpon declined comment.

However, a person close to Codey says the Essex County lawmaker knows the deal might be a longshot.

State Sports and Exposition Authority director George Zoffinger has been talking about the possibility of bringing a small-market team to a 40-thousand-seat baseball stadium at the Meadowlands Sports Complex.

so sorry to see them go

Arpikarhu · 10-03-2004, 10:54 PM

whats your point?

GonzoStyle · 10-04-2004, 01:16 AM

I guess that NJ sjould be grateful for the fact they flirted with greatness if even for a moment.

Though I probably think he really had no point and had more of a cliff clavin moment.

that the whole concept is getting old, neither team will ever move to jersey.

and another MLB team will never move to jersey either because both the Mets and Yanks will fight it at every turn.
