See, THIS is what I have been getting at all season. Sure, it’s fun to have “Mets owners Steve and Alex Cohen” in the press releases, but here’s the problem Alex. That puts you on the clock.
If you’d like to be anonymous, then be anonymous.
You are named checked as the owner, even today. You’re not the owner’s wife, you’re the owner. It says so in the press releases. Your team, that you own, sent me a press release today saying you are one of the owners.
The New York Post reports: Cohen said she will no longer post to her work Instagram account, @tiaalexnymets, and will be deactivating her Mets email account.
Alex the Owner also put out a statement that includes:
Owning this team is not just about baseball; it’s about being part of a community that believes, together, in something bigger than the game itself.
“As we move into the offseason, I’ll be stepping away from this work Instagram to recharge and refocus. I remain committed to the work I do for the fans and look forward to reconnecting again in the spring.
OK, well, you’re the owner. You just said so. Thus, fans will let you know how they feel. Don’t wanna hear from fans, thendon’t be the owner, be the owner’s wife.
Did fans bug Jeff Wilpon’s wife? Nope. Mrs. Fred WIlpon? Nope. Mrs. Doubleday? Nope. Mrs M. Donald Grant? Nope.
But you see, you’re the owner. Its says so in the press release.
Alex Cohen adds, “I’ll also be deactivating my Tia Alex email. I originally created it to stay connected with you all, but it ended up becoming a platform for the same thing fans were already DMing me about. Please know this decision comes from a place of respect and balance.”
Then again, hiding out on social media seems to be a Cohen trait. Steve Cohen, one of the owners, will go weeks at time without interacting with fans….then suddenly will show up when the Mets win six in a row.
Not how it works in the Big Apple guys.
