Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 2274177, member: 289"] Aren't the Mets a corporation? And isn't that money the corporations money, not directly the Wilpons? The thing that got me angry about their dealings with Mr. Madoff, (a great name, by the way), was that, if I understood correctly, they signed players to deferred compensation contracts so they wouldn't have to pay them so much now and could take the money they saved and invest it with Madoff. They figured that they would amke more money from Bernie than they'd eventually have to pay the players and thus come out ahead. But wasn't that the Met's money, not specifically theirs? Wouldn't that have been illegal? [/QUOTE]
