Dwight Gooden Tribute at CitiField

April 17, 2024

Dwight Gooden still had one regret about his career, which was how his time with the Mets ended.

Prior to his number retirement ceremony, Gooden said more than once  on Sunday he wanted to “make things right” with Mets fans after the way his tenure with the team ended in 1994, when he tested positive for cocaine and was suspended by MLB for all of the 1995 season.

“The fans stuck with me through everything,’’ Gooden said Sunday prior to his number retirement ceremony at Citi Field. “After ‘94, when the Mets cut ties with me, I always wanted to come back here.”

He got the opportunity on Sunday, when he recounted that he tried to return to the Mets as a player on several occasions, but the team never gave him the chance.

During his brief speech prior to Sunday’s game during an ill-timed rain shower, Gooden said he called the Mets following his two-year stint with the Yankees, which elicited a round of boos from the crowd.

Gooden responded, “I’m always a Met.”

Tom Brady Teases Potential NFL Comeback

April 14, 2024

Seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady teased a potential NFL comeback during an appearance on the ‘Deep Cut’ podcast.

“I’m not opposed to it,” Brady said when asked by the host if he’d answer the call from an NFL team needing a quarterback due to injury.

“I don’t know if they are going to let me if I become an owner of an NFL team. I’m always going to be in good shape. I’ll always be able to throw the ball. So, to come in for a little bit, like Michael Jordan coming back, I don’t know if they would let me. But I wouldn’t be opposed to it.”

Mentioned was a hypothetical scenario where the San Francisco 49ers or the New England Patriots needed to sign a quarterback late in the season due to injury. They also mentioned the Las Vegas Raiders, with whom he has a deal to become a minority owner pending league approval.

Since beating Oscar Duarte in December, Garcia has been calling out Haney and he now has got his wish. But who will emerge victorious when the pair meet?

At Hoops Cabaret, fans can view the exciting bout on the club’s giant Mega-Tron Video Wall and numerous HD TVs and flat screens, giving every seat a clear view of all the action.

Hoops girl Anna said, “It’s going to be a great fight, and the after-party here with so many sexy dancers is going to be off the hook. And the bartenders and waitresses are gorgeous too! Come make it rain. Don’t miss it!”
