I cant believe these 2 actually work really well together. That was hilarious.
they’re getting into a groove fs but MadDog got some of the most HORRENDOUS Nba and Nfl takes
@@onlyDoti i love to see it lmao
He just look like a racist and sounds like one too tbh
In NYC, this is called a normal conversation 😂😂
Not enough hands moving
😂😂😂
Ok kevin hart 🤡
It really is though lmao
Two New Yorkers 😂.
As a Mets fan I still don’t believe that this off-season is real
Me either, we dreamed of off-seasons like this when our former owners would penny pinch and keep us in obscurity
We here
No doubt about it!
Jets had a good offseason now the Mets are,hopefully the knicks get some of that inspiration and make some moves
We eff’n here baby LFGM!!!
"If you're a Met fan don't you want a couple of homegrown guys?"
Clear sign mdadog ain't a fan. If you're a Met fan, you just want them to win.
amen brother 🙏🏾
He’s legitimately a Giants fan. I would listen to him with mike Francessa on WFAN. He’s always been a SF giants fan. So of course that would be his take. He just watched a team he covered for years poach a top quality FA from his team😂
Dog is a SF Giants fan. I'm sure he's not too ecstatic about this... 🤣🤣🤣
I could care less, I'm a die hard met fan. Born and raised in Brooklyn, I had to deal with George steinbrenner for a long time... now we have a owner that isn't afraid to spend! I always gave George respect for that!!
we literally have 3 home grown players who are great for us and bringing up you wanna bring tom back was corny mad dog is just corny to me
Stephen A speaking facts. High risks high rewards 😂
Will still lose to the astros in the playoffs
Wouldn’t be surprised if the Mets sign Odell Beckham Jr later this week
🤣🤣🤣
They do need a Good water boy.....
Chill
Lmao I'm crying he ain't ready for all that
Lol I hear the Mets are considering signing lebron
Stephen A telling ESPN he the best pay for him to stay lol
He giving obvious clues 🤣🤣🤣
He was alluding to Molly.
@@koolmoe1971 naw he was talking about himself
The fact that he said dont you want one home grown player and then name nimmo who is home grown is hilarious 😂😂
Doggy is a giant fan! Of course he hates this! Hahahaha love it
I seriously don’t like Mad Dog, he was literally saying the Mets didn’t get any better. But now when we try to get better, he gets all mad.
He’s a Giants fan, and also a lobbyist for MLB.
the money spending tho... it's getting quite out of hand. The rich don't see it but the average casual fan does, the fan can't relate. It's all about just winning and whatever cost. Like buying a championship, whoever puts out the most money. Well, I'm glad it actually doesn't work that way, usually. I love it when these types of teams fall... it proves with this method it's not guaranteed. You still have to play ball on the field, and perform. That's why those Cinderella teams that get hot come playoffs can be the most scary... and usually they don't have the highest payroll.
Baseball teams should hire Stephen A. to yell at umpires so managers don’t have to do it and get tossed
Stephen A gets it! He knows the pain we have been dealing with forever. We can’t be more thankful for Steve Cohen
NL East is gonna be fun to watch this upcoming season. As a Phillies fan, this is gonna be electric!! 🔥
As Mets fan Good Luck to you guys Phillies vs mets playoffs next year.
You guys didn't have a bad offseason either. Trea Turner is gonna be a stud in that electric lineup, that rotation is overlooked, and the bullpen improved. Braves aren't push overs either. Gonna be a fun race.
Braves fan. Half excited, half scared. And don’t forget the 4th best team has a lowkey lights out pitching staff
As a Mets fan, NL East on top baby!!!!
Mets fan here, this spending is a bridge til the youngsters which 3 are already on the roster get ready and are slowly groomed in. They have 7 draft picks in the 1st 5 rounds in the upcoming draft as well. Once a deep farm system is developed you wont be seeing the crazy spending anymore.
Mets are going for a chip now in the next few years and kept their prospects too for future
I tell people people the same thing, they haven't traded their prospects at all, they wanna win now and developing their young talent. It's genius
@@jayu3697 they're just copying the Dodgers who this off-season have been quiet and will bring up the kids
Think they might be developing them to trade em for a bigger piece down the road. But Baty is a ready-to-play prospect tbh
@Hayden Nyagah probably trade bait at the trade deadline.
They are great together. Incredible emotion and passion from both. Stephen A can rant and debate baseball. Skip Bayless could never do that.
Tom Seaver’s dead
@@SSNESS and so is Hank Steinbrenner. They each made mistakes.
Correa doesn’t have a bad back that’s not what the physical showed. Also Escobar is making like 10 million that’s not a fortune. Nimmo, Mcneil and Alonso are also homegrown and we have like 5 top 100 prospects
Coming from an Astros fan, yes he does lol
@@craigbattle876 He’s had back issues but that’s not what the Giants found in his physical
@@Jjj-zz7bz the giants were worried about some ankle issue from 2014. Honestly signing Correa for that long isn’t very smart. He’s been injury ridden in the beginning of his career and I don’t see that getting much better as he AGES. If the Mets can get a World Series out of him, it’s def worth it tho. It’s a risk tho
@@alcostello6114 It’s a risk but I think it’s one the Mets can take
@@Jjj-zz7bz oh fs they can take it. It’ll be a fun experiment to watch. Anything that fucks the Dodgers
“When is enough enough??”😂😂 They’re already complaining & Uncle Steve is just getting started lmaoo. Nimmo, McNeil, Alonso all home grown players btw Mets have the #1 prospect in baseball.
not #1 prospect in baseball. just cause y'all spent money don't mean it means y'all gonna win. players have to perform
@@b2tbpodcast257 Fransisco Alvarez is MLB’s #1 prospect. Don’t see where I said it means there gonna win but go off 😭😭
@@b2tbpodcast257 ur dumb
@@jayjayfrmstatefarm9363 gunner Henderson of the Orioles is #1 prospect. just cause you a mets fan don't mean put false info out there.
@@Allstarxman7 pretty sure I know more then you but if that's your opinion of me that's cool. lol calling a person you never met dumb over the internet but won't say it if we was face to face
Lindor and Correa next to each other is fire 🇵🇷
Lol Steve choen isn’t going to lose any money, he’s going to double his money with tickets alone. If you do your research , these baseball clubs generate a lot of money.
Im with stephen A. I love that man steve cohen😂😂😂 i wish the Red Sox had an owner like him 😢
Stephen A was talking to the ESPN execs during this segment. “You want the best, you better pay for it”
I'd be shocked if Ohtani isn't a Met by the trade deadline...at the latest.
Wouldn't doubt he comes in a trade next week.
I think they wait till free agency next year & just sign him without having to give up the farm.
Angels never trade him
@@jameshughes6049
There's not a lot of room upstairs for that farm.
The amount of spit that that poor woman must have endured through both of their tirades 😢
as a yankees fan i miss the boss george Steinbrenner
We're you a Yankee fan in the 80's? Yankee fans wanted him gone.. He spent like a drunken sailor and we didn't win anything. It's not until Steinbrenner got banned were the Yankees able to build a sustainable product that 30 plus years later have finished with an above. 500 record and 5 chips. No other baseball team can claim that the last 3 decades.
@@krazyfan2000 Im a Yankees fan since 92 was born in 87
If Steinbrenner was allowed to run the Yankees before he was banned we probably don't have a dynasty in the 90's. I am almost certain of that.
He was never this loaded
@thefishhobbyist5478 not saying that Steinbrenner didn't do good things. He did but he also wasn't perfect. And if he was in charge before they built that dynasty we probably wouldn't have had Mo or Jeter. Trust me I saw what he used to do. He traded away HOF type talent over the years. The foundation for the last 30 plus years was laid because of his suspension. This is why he's looked at differently by older fans because they know.
I think this is a really smart move for the Mets especially with the shift being banned!! They have one of if not the best infields in all of mlv!! With all the groundball pitchers they have this is a smart move
Astros - Bregman, Pena, Altuve, Abreu... might have something to say about that
Yeah and you didn’t even mention their cameras and trash cans.
@@zachmcmahan8481 Fool, get out. That's over and done with. Why even bring that up, bitter you are. Can't say anything about 2022 championship now can you ?
@@zachmcmahan8481 lol yeah that to 😂
@@TheActs2021 I wanna see astros vs mets next year in the world series
9k for a hot dog ? Best line in the whole rant. I was never a Stephen A fan but these 2 nuts are perfect together.
You know it’s serious when Stephen A talks about a baseball team other than the Yankees
Russo is just mad his team (SF Giants) didn't go through with this LMAO, hilarious
Hank passed away a few years ago someone should let Stephen a know he’s always mentioning hank when talking about the Yankees ownership
@@thefishhobbyist5478 No, he probably forgot that Hank died but that guy says a lot of stupid things.
Nimmo, home grown. Alonso, home grown. McNeil home grown. Nido, home grown. These were everyday players last season.
Molly's reaction to when S.A. said "I'm dropping hints" leads me to believe the rumors about him clapping her are true.
as a yankee fan good for the mets i hope steve cohen keeps embarrassing these other owners
Mets and Yankees being good is just good for baseball
Stephen A. was me last night fasho LMFAO, might be a top rant out of him that I never expected especially as a Yankee fan
Steven A bringing his A game today!
Those guys are funny. It's just like the barbershop talk or when the fellas are hanging out. Yelling, laughing, passionate, sensitive but serious about their opinions
As a Pittsburgh Pirates fan I'm super jealous of the New York Mets
SAS in the thumbnail like “watchu mean by that lil bro?” 🤣
The Mets are becoming the NL East Version of the Padres lol 🤣
Not really, the Mets owner will be able to maintain this type of thing, the padres owner are already looking like they can’t afford to pay everyone after only a couple years
Not sure what is better, Russo going on about Correa’s already reported not injured back, or Stephen A calling out Hank Steinbrenner who is dead
MLB fans, we meet again for our monthly ESPN/First Take video.
See you again in February!
The Coupons ..Tragic😂😂😂😂
Love this group
METS KEEP SPENDING I LOVE IT 💙🧡
Let's Go Mets!!!
Stephen A. was throwing hints at Molly. She was blushing like crazy!!
Stephen A is Awesome !! He pumped me up after I was down on the Mets !! Lets go Mets !!
Mets will beat Yankees in the World Series .
Just wait and see
we need more owners like him, who actually care about winning. you got these billionaires spending a few million on their entire roster.
I’ve waited for this moment 😂😂😂😂 let’s go Mets we trading McCann , cookie , baty & vientos for Reynolds
Absolutely Not lol!!!! Train Baty and Vientos to play the Outfield. We could trade McCann for D-level prospects. They are still better than Mccant hit
That's crazy
Nah, you got the wrong person. We're going after Ohtani
@John Monteblanco probably but i wudnt do that, too high risk
@@Ticonderoga12 high risk of what?
I don't even watch baseball, but this was an entertaining conversation! 😂 Got me Googling Carlos Correa (never heard of him until now) and everything lol
Massive Mets fan here. I’m not sure how I feel tbh. We HAVE to win now. Lol. We are the NEW EMPIRE.
THE NEW EVIL EMPIRE, but I know what you meant.
Rarely but I agree with what Stephen A. said this time.
Never seen SAS talk baseball...but him and Mad-dog work well!
Someone needs to tell Stephen A hank Steinbrenners been dead for a while, it’s like the third time he’s brought him up
And yanks fans miss him
Its crazy how when the mets had such a dominant pitching staff and the coupons were so cheap. They didnt have to spend anywhere near this amount to help win a world series. Now that cohen is in charge of running the team and is willing to do anything to help this team is incredible. He made promises when he took over and delivered on every single one. Met fans can't put any blame on him whatsoever whatever happens in the future. He did his part and then some..
Stephen A forgot Hank was dead again.
I'd like to remind everyone that going over the luxury tax means nothing to Steve Cohen. The man purchased the Metropolitans for 2.4 billion in cash, no bank loan or money borrowed, it's his own money. He has a wife and father-in-law that are also die-hard Met fans, so imagine what the conversations at the dinner table must be like.
As annoying as it is that baseball on First Take is confined to Yanks/Mets; its better than nothing 😭
6:17 Facts 😂😂
Money, Power and Respect new Mets theme song 🎵
Dog having such a hard time admitting he lives it is the best part of this
Steven is a snap heheh I almost thought he was a Mets fan.
Steve Cohen would be amazing to play for
I can’t wait for summer time baseball season
Well said A
Lmaooo y’all do know mad dog a giants fan right, you know he was gonna be sick about that. 😂
Hank Steinbrenner died like 3 years ago. That’s how you know Stephen A has no idea what he’s talking about
This is where a salary cap would eliminate this ridiculous spending.
Just make sure Bobby Bonilla gets his money every year LOL
I wish Cohen was the owner when we had a young Synagard, Matz, Degrom man that would of been sweet
George Steinbrenner has reincarnated into Steve Cohen.
Dog is pissed his Giants laid an egg in free agency😂😂😂
Steve Cohen watching this laughing
“It’s a write-off Jerry”
Sometimes I prefer first take because I get tired of hearing about the cowboys, dak, and Tom Brady
Yankee fan talking about spending lol
Mad Dog is not a Yankee fan! He’s a SF Giants fan lol
@@joseromero81 He's just mad Carlos Correa got stolen from his team
Mets be like hold my beer...
Russo has proclaimed being a Giants fan on WFAN for years. Smh
Dumb comment, know your facts
Sniff sniff, what's that smell? I smell jealousy Mike!
LFGM! We suffered under the excrement Wilpons for too long.
I chose the wrong sport in life all the signs were in front of me 😭
Only thing that could make this off-season even more of a dream is trading for ohtani
What hint is Stephen A talking about? And why was he looking at Molly?
He about to propose? 😂😂😂
I'm still in Dreamland I can't believe it 🧡💙
It's good to see you Skip Bayless back on ESPN
It's not always about the money, Spider Man
I completely agree stephen
--Mets lineup
1-CF Nimmo bats Left
2-RF Marte bats right
3-SS Lindor SH
4-1B Alonso right bats right
5-2B McNeil bats left
6-3B Correa bats right
7-DH Escobar SH
8-DH Nido bats right Narvaez bats left
9-C Canha bats right
I want Escobar in first base & Pete Alonso DH better fit…👌🏼
I like McNeil 4th, think about it 4 guys in a row with speed and low K rate...Nightmare for pitchers
@@deinly1 I like that thinking, but there’s also something to be said about McNeil following the big meat of Pete.
Let's go, Mets!
LET'S GO METS!!
If they make a run at ohtani omg!!!
Mega superteam
😲 😯 😮 🙀 🤯 😱
@channel sold Steve Cohen's pockets are DEEP!! It most certainly can happen!! 😂
Well Dog is just bitter that his team couldn’t close out the deals with Judge & Correa. I’m a die hard Mets fan and I agree completely with Stephen A. When George was running the yankees I was so jealous wishing we had an owner who was willing to do anything at all costs to win, now we have it in Cohen.
As a Mets fan, I felt the same way.
Stephen A. Is a real one, he knows what he's talking about. I agree with him 100 pct
I saw a comment where the mets afe working a deal for javy baez at second base bot i might be wrong there trying to get the trio of the Pr wbc in 2017
Whoever in charge of the financial department is going through it this offseason this offseason
This is the same Mad dog that said the Mets weren't any better than last season just a week ago. Get the heck outta here.
Of course he's going to hate. He's a Giants fan.
Dude why they can’t have Madd Dogg on here everyday..lol!
If this gives Stephen a coronary, it's worth every penny.
Stephen A has never spoken like this nor given this type of praise and infatuation for a black man on national TV before. I cant look at him the same anymore
New York Always!
Other team owners are trying to figure out how they can scream about league poverty to their fan bases......to continue pocketing profits instead of reinvesting in the team to field a winning product.
This great
With this team and the money spent, they need to win the World Series this year.
Not if the Phillies have something to say about it first... then the Astros. haha
There are so many who today say they're Yankee fans and on the inside of their souls deep inside, they're Mets fans.
Nobody has a problem when that team in the Bronx was doing it.
Everybody had a problem with it , that’s why we are hated 😂
