Jets cut prices on 18,000 PSL's


So it comes down to this.

As a last ditch effort to sell out GIANTS Stadium for Jets game, the Jets organization has decided to cut prices on 18,000 seats up for PSL's. Cuts are going for as much as 50%. After the Jets failed to coax fans with constant phone calls and emails to buy the seats at the previous, ridiculous rates, the Jets have no choice but to cut prices.

But don't jump on that credit card that fast Jet fans, because the prices are still steep. Lower end zone seats have been reduced from $5,000 per seat to $2,500 per seat. Second level mezz. end zone, has been cut from $4,000 a seat to $2,500 a seat. Finally, the lower sidelines have been slashed from a whopping $15,000 per seat to $10,000 per seat. Overall, the cuts are costing the Jets $47.25 million in losses.

The prices are still ridiculous. Jet fans should continue to protest the costs until these prices are reduced to a resonable rate, if not eliminated. The Giants have sold out the building, with the exception of 1,500 seats that could always be sold on a individual game basis, or sold to brokers on Stub Hub.

At least the Giants have a recent history of success; they won the Super Bowl more than two years ago. The Jets are a bigger gamble for investors, they were a lucky lot to get to the playoffs last season, and have not had a season of more than 10 wins in 11 years.

Jets, Dolphins and Patriots Playoff Breakdown

Here are the formuli that could get the Jets into and out of the playoff party this season: 1) If the Jets win against Seattle and Miami, they win the AFC East based on a better conference record (8-4) than the New England Patriots, even if New England wins out as well. 2) If the Patriots win out and the Dolphins win out and finish at 11-5, the Jets would be 10-6, or 9-7, and probably out of the playoffs. Both New England and Miami would make the playoffs, with the Dolphins as a divison winner and the Patriots as a wild card. The Patriots make the postseason if Baltimore loses one of its final two games. 3) If the Patriots win out and the Dolphins and Jets split, then the Patriots win the AFC East. The Jets will have to hope that they beat Miami to win that tie-breaker and, further, hope that they have a better conference record than the Baltimore Ravens in order to clinch the sixth seed. 4) If the Patriots and Ravens win out and the Dolphins and Jets split their final two games, then ...

Francisco Lindor Remains Red Hot as Mets Top Phillies

 Francisco Lindor remains the hottest player in Queens right now.  The Mets shortstop blasted two more home runs, including a three-run blast in the bottom of the eighth inning, Monday night to help propel the Mets to a 5-4 win over Philadelphia.   Lindor who typically struggles in the month of April is putting together a heck of a month. Monday's two hit effort was the 10th game in the last 11 where Lindor has recorded a hit. In fact in the month of April alone this year, Lindor was hitting at .311 coming into Monday's action.  On the year, Lindor is batting .284 with five homers and 13 RBI.  Lindor's efforts proved to be prophetic, as the Phillies Alec Bohm crushed a three-run bomb off Edwin Diaz in the top of the ninth to cut the Mets lead to a single run. Fortunately for New York, Diaz was able to shut the door with strikeouts of Trea Turner and Bryce Harper.  New York (16-7) has now won five in a row.

Mets Keep Rolling into Phillies Series

 The New York Mets are feeling pretty good about things right now!  The Amazin's swept a four game series from the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday, winning 7-4 Sunday afternoon. It was the first time since 1986 that the Amazin's had swept such a series from St. Louis. We all know what happened later that season.    Well, not to get too far ahead of ourselves, because the 2025 version now faces a very stiff challenge. The Mets will face their arch rivals the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday with only two games separating the two teams in the NL East.  The Mets took out Philly in the NLDS last October, so this figures to be a heck of showdown. The Mets begin a month long stretch against teams that are likely postseason contenders like the Phillies, D-Backs, Cubs, Yankees, Red Sox, and Dodgers.  If the Mets (15-7) are this good, we will know for sure in a month.
