Yup. People like this exist and get hired everywhere. This woman kept it under wraps and is still anonymous - not sure how a background check fits in here.
The Mets also know the likelihood of this being a one off incident is pretty low.
Yeah when someone who presumably is an intelligent guy with a powerful job, high salary (a lot to lose, in other words) - it can't really be understood rationally. 60 unanswered texts and a dick pic - its compulsive behavior.

Not that it matters; I ask out of curiosity. Were some of the 60 texts responding to texts back?

Apparently some in the beginning were, but the last 40(ish) were not.

No, according to ESPN, 62 is the number of unanswered texts. There were casual texts early on which she responded to, but once she felt he'd crossed the line she stopped, and that's where the count of 62 starts.
ESPN knew about this from what I read. Why spring this story the second the guy is hired? Why not leak this shit earlier? Unless I am reading this wrong, I want to say it's because ESPN is a sell out, cess pool of shit stirring scum that sat on this story until it was high time to release it to the ether and generate buzz.
If I am close to right, fuck ESPN once again. They couldn't investigate this earlier? This story smells like shit as usual with ESPN's filthy paws all over it.
it was obviously the right move and no reason to drag it out.
And what exactly were the mets supposed to do? What type of background check do you people think happens? Should the Mets have asked for his last 5 years of phone records???

They explicitly say they didn't report earlier because the victim asked them not to. She was concerned it would damage her career and they respected her wishes. Only recently (she's no longer working in sports, or even living in this country) did she tell them to go forward with reporting it. Never let facts get in the way.

Yea, I want to believe that part of it. I just can’t give espn any credibility. Facts? I’ve seen espn pull this shit before. I’m going on facts. Since when does espn care about anyone. Would this story have seen the light of day if porter isn’t hired as GM?
Whatever I’m done. This just smells shitty to me. Not even a mets fan.
ESPN cared more about the bombshell aspects of this story than the victim. Whatever. Mets will recover. The girl will have a much tougher recovery. Men are fucking wackjobs.
According to ESPN, the victim consented to their running the story, as long as they kept her name out. Since they sat on it for 4 years at her request, I tend to believe them on this one.
dudes sending lude pics is not out of the ordinary, I know and hear stories about these types of things all the time.
Not condoning this behavior in anyway way as I think its stupid as well but what Porter did is not uncommon on society today.
SHE WAS TRAUMATIZED TO THIS DAY! every night she closes here eyes and see that naked penis OH THE HORROR! lolol
I get its wrong and I get not wanting him steering the boat now because of optics and risk of him being unprofessional again but jesus christ you'd think he stalked her for days showing up at her apartment like a creep.

fair enough. I usually jump the gun and just assume ESPN represents the lowest form of humanity. I did read the article and stories and did see she consented...i still think the whole thing is...weird. But ok.
...He showed me an SNY Instagram Post that announced the termination. He asked "why?". He's 13 so I think he may get it - I was going to just have him read allstarjim's posts.
As others have said, how do you vet private texts that apparently were never made public? What question(s) do you ask in the interview to cover that?
Re: "They are still the Mets." Fuck off?

Take a chill pill young man.
Oh. I'm chilled.

Hypersensitivity is no way to go thru life...
If you get that excited about an innocuous comment,
it shows a loser mentality about your team.
Get over it.

I didnt want to get embroiled in a possing contest over this as Yanks fan, but Carson, your takes on this are pretty dense.

It’s a much bigger story when it’s the GM of the Mets vs an assistant who nobody but insiders have heard of
Now sign Springer and keep this off the back pages!
Refreshing.
As a guy who has his wife heavily involved already in team communications... no surprise to see this decisive action.
Sucks that it happened, but have to applaud the bias to action.
How is a background check supposed to uncover texts?
haha exactly

While hetero men are generally visually stimulated by female parts, it's pretty well known that women, aren't generally visually attracted to wangs.
I can't imagine courting a woman and texting - hey baby check out my schlong.. wanna go out sometime?

Is the term "oversharing" related to "file sharing"? Like Napster?

I once dated this girl who did me wrong. So all the bitches asked for it!!!
SHE LED HIM ON!!!

You were hoping for the money shot -- admit it.
Try google... the truth is out there!!
