The Bonilla contract seemed like a good idea at the time. The Wilpons took the money that they were deferring and invested it with Madoff. The money they were making with Madoff outweighed the interest they were paying Bonilla. But then all good things must come to an end.

My mom's grandparents were born in the 1860's.
That can make you feel old.

My great grandmother was born in 1882. I remember her well from my youth and when when she died in 1979 I remember thinking she'd lived in Westwood with gas lights and an outhouse as a child and had lived through the development of publicly available electricity and plumbing, the transition from horses to automobiles, from trains to planes, two world wars, a pandemic, the inventions of the telephone, radio and television and watched a man land on the moon live. I wonder if any generation could have lived through more impactful technological achievements?
