Memorial Day is considered the day baseball fans are free to look at the MLB standings, but Mets fans might not like what they see.

Jaylen Brown is a fine player. On paper, he qualifies as great. The Boston Celtics’ co-star is unequivocally one of the NBA’s best players at his position. He made his second straight All-Star appearance this season, qualified for second-team All-NBA, has been a Top-17 scorer each of the past three seasons and averaged a career-best 26.6 points per game in the regular season for a Celtics team that finished with the second-best record in the Eastern Conference this year. Brown has averaged at least one steal per game in five of his seven NBA seasons, shoots five percentage points better than the NBA’s average field goal percentage (42%), has proven mostly durable appearing in at least 57 games every season and has historically been a reliable three-point shooter.

Why did CBS and Fox let a Peacock into the hen house? After all, the National Football League and its commissioners, including the current one, Roger Goodell, once followed a mantra about making its games available to the “largest possible audience.” Nonetheless, the NFL recently sold one primetime Saturday night (Jan. 13, 2024) Wild Card playoff game exclusively to NBCUniversal-owned streaming service, Peacock. There are 13 total playoff games, making each one a sparkler, a most lucrative piece of NFL inventory.

SEATTLE — As reporters filed into Aaron Boone’s office at T-Mobile Park, the Yankees manager found himself staring at the small TV hanging below the ceiling in the far corner of the room. Boone watched in amazement as the monitor flashed a replay of Aaron Judge’s eighth-inning home run robbery. The outfielder elevated high above the right field wall and stole a solo shot from the Mariners’ Teoscar Hernandez — a Yankees killer as a Blue Jay — as he crashed into the padding.
