I have to give Judge Lifland credit for recognizing that this extreme situation needs immediate attention so as to " avoid the continuing circus atmosphere" and to avoid further damage to the Met's Franchise. Appointing former Governor Mario Cuomo as a mediator(albeit without settlement authority) was a brilliant move.
Mario Cuomo is universally respected, has the background in law and mediation and has the "street smarts" to see the big picture. He will understand the Wilpon's operation , will know all the players involved and will never be bullied or intimidated. Most of all he will understand the need for an expedited resolution, a win win for all.
All I can say is good luck Mario!
