What is The Cost of a Hometown Boy
It was announced that GM Steve Yzerman’s time with the Detroit Red Wings came to an end after 10 straight losing seasons. He will serve as a Senior Advisor.
The fabric of Red Wings hockey was built hard on their hardcore identity throughout the 90’s and early 2000’s. Unfortunately for them, they never valued the draft and gone with precision veterans.
Now, Detroit hometown kid Dylan Larkin is close to entering the latter stages of his career and he wants to push out of the automotive city.
Way to push him out Detroit.
A regime change will certainly question a player and Larkin has been nothing but loyal to the franchise.
Yzerman played and directed the team during the prestigious and nasty days of Red Wings hockey and finds himself in a quick search for a new general manager.

Lebron James Lakers Divorce Strikes for the Worst
According to sources, LeBron James was ‘not available’ when the Los Angeles Lakers called about the 22x NBA All-Star. James did not have a formal or informal offer with the Lakers brass..
He already knew his time was itching closer to the end and gave the Lakers the expectation there would be extension talks. They did not discuss the vision for the future or meet face-to face.
This is the franchise that held a spot for Bronny James. This is the team that valued LeBron’s legacy and he just tossed L.A. to the flames.
He does not care. Did he ever with Miami or Cleveland? Cleveland may have a slight excuse.
Still, at 42, LeBron wants to win championships, possibly with the Philadelphia 76ers, Minnesota Timberwolves, Miami Heat or Cleveland Cavaliers.

David Stearns is the Suspect You Don’t Want
David Stearns is riding on a high-level rollercoaster, similar to what he does on a day-to-day basis, stand from an overview in Citi Field or elsewhere, feeling strongly powerful. No questions are answered for years as to why the New York Mets are dysfunctional and the team continues to suffer but one man in particular had the guts to appear on the EC3 podcast and call out not Juan Soto but indirectly, Eric Chavez.
Forget Chavez mentioning the three assistants to Stearns busy latte. Stearns has stumbled on the Mets agenda and playing keen to Steve Cohen. He has put Soto on a pedestal and forgetting the rest of the team that includes Chavez as a hitting coach (2022-25).
Chavez provided some good details as to what is wrong with the New York Mets and obviously they need to get their acts together. David Stearns is a suspect you do not want to have.
He is bitter, egotistical, and aligned with the wrong people. Instead, the Mets want to infuse hope and team chemistry.

What Went Wrong with Carlos Mendoza
Nothing went wrong with Carlos Mendoza. What truly went wrong with Mendoza is that the team was not buying in.
The team was not buying into David Stearns plan and he paid for it.
Not only did he pay for it but mostly Steve Cohen. Cohen was willing to take a huge bet from a former New York Yankees baseball coach and he paid for it.
He paid for Juan Soto with deferrals and meanwhile success did not transfer over.
This is the signs of a bad baseball team. This is what the Anaheim Angels got for keeping Perry Minasian.
The general manager did not take questions from the media and was a jerk.
I digress, maybe the New York Mets did not buy into Mendoza but so what. Mendoza will eventually succeed at another job and not feel as sorry as Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor.
Lindor felt apologetic over the entire situation and he cannot be blamed. Lindor played well one other time when he rallied the team to victories.
Lindor can start to be the leader and find the team’s true identity. Mendoza, though, was their first step forward.
