Michael Kay goes off on Mets fans over Juan Soto gripe: ‘Ill-informed nitwits’

Mets fans: Yankees broadcaster Michael Kay thinks you’re just a whole bunch of fleas.

Kay went on an absurd rant Thursday on his ESPN New York radio show, with angry Mets fans — whom he labeled “ill-informed nitwits” — being his primary targets.

“Mets fans cannot enjoy any kind of success,” Kay said. “They always have to have a grievance. They always have to have something to complain about. And they’re so thirsty when it comes to being right and proving somebody who said something about their team wrong. So then, they misappropriate what people do say to fit their silly little childish narrative.”

In May, Kay reported the Mets’ $765 million man Juan Soto was “very, very glum around the clubhouse,” and that Soto wanted to re-sign with the Yankees before he ultimately made the move to Flushing to appease his family.

The report made sense — as Soto had been struggling mightily to begin his Mets career and didn’t seem to display the same swagger he typically would.

But as Soto has picked up his game and was seen having fun with his teammates in the dugout flipping and landing water bottles during this recent four-game split in Los Angeles, the fans used this instance as evidence that Kay was making the “glum” story up.

He wasn’t having any of that.

“The little gnats that for some reason I live rent free in their mind,” Kay said of the Mets fans. “The prevailing narrative, which to me is laughable, ‘Kay just made that up because his radio show failed. That’s why they took him off the radio show and he needs to get clicks.’ Well, you simpletons, that’s not the case at all. My radio show didn’t fail, it was a rousing success.

“I wonder if the people that say stuff like this are embarrassed by their stupidity,” Kay went on. “Can they look in the mirror with their tongue hanging out breathing up against the window at their visage and be proud of themselves? Or do they realize that they are lying punks that are just saying stuff in order to fit their narrative … moronic, dumb, ill-informed.”

Kay closed out his rant by calling Mets fans losers and saying, “I don’t let fleas go on the back of lions. And you’re all fleas.

“You think I need to make up something and ruin a 39, 40-year career? Make up something for what? What would clicks do for me, you bunch of ill-informed nitwits. Please, get over me. I’m not worth your trouble. I’m the other team’s announcer … you know how silly you look … you know how small and insignificant you make yourself out to be?”
