Jonathan Taylor MVP! Daniel Jones CPOY! Tyler Warren ROY! Hoosiers #1 says CBS! Pacers open in 3 days!
I’m sure many of you did a double take reading that headline. To answer some of the questions the title likely raised, yes, I have watched the Jets this season. I do understand the team has a glaring need at quarterback both immediately and in the long term. I have seen whichever successful young quarterback […]
They may sound like sports cliches – but for the Brooklyn Nets – imitation is the highest form of flattery. And there’s no need to reinvent the wheel when the defending NBA champions just laid out the formula. When the Brooklyn Nets recently hired Oklahoma City Thunder director of amateur scouting Acie Law IV to […]
Lately I suspended the anti-game ball post after Jets losses. The team has being beaten so thoroughly that it was difficult to find any standouts. Pretty much everybody earned an anti-game ball. But after the Week 7 loss to the Carolina Panthers, I have decided that at least for this week we can give out […]
There weren’t many details available Monday morning on the ankle injury that forced Bryce Young out of Sunday’s win against the Jets. “We’re evaluating for the right ankle,” Panthers head coach Dave Canales said via the team’s website after the Panthers’ 13-6 win. “So we’re taking all the information and we’re going to look at […]

After going 2-0-1 over their first three contests, the Oilers are now mired in a three-game losing skid, falling to the New York Islanders, New Jersey Devils, and Detroit Red Wings. Edmonton…

New York’s five boroughs permeate the story of baseball, from its humble beginnings as a working class bat and ball sport in the mid-19th century, to its explosion in popularity and commercialization in the late 1800s, through its emergence as the nation’s great pastime throughout the 20th century. […]
The Yankees once again fell short of the ultimate prize in 2025, bowing out to the Blue Jays in the ALDS one day after an incredible Aaron Judge homer that could’ve been one for the books had it not just ultimately been a stay of execution of sorts. But they were still a 94-win ballclub—matching […]
It’s Opening Week! The Knicks will get into the Tarrytown lab today and tomorrow as they gear up for the season-opening matchup against Cleveland inside MSG on Wednesday evening. Here’s what we’ve heard from Coach Brown and a few dudes in the last few hours. Mike Brown On preseason injuries and building team chemistry: “The […]
Mike and Dan recap the Islanders’ exciting first two wins of the season and the warts that are still very evident in their play so far. For a little while, they were 0-3 and staring down a quickly lost season. But two wins – neither perfect, but gutty and pesky – helped everyone breath easy […]
Since the National League implemented the designated hitter in 2022, the position has not been kind to the New York Mets. They have consistently struggled to get solid production out of the spot, as they have put together a .229/.316/.398 triple slash from the position since 2022, good for a whopping 103 wRC+, 18th in […]
From bad to worse. Any hope the Edmonton Oilers had in salvaging their five-game eastern road trip blew up in their face Sunday afternoon, losing 4-2 to the Detroit Red Wings. While the team secured an ugly 2-0 shutout victory over the New York Rangers to kick things off, they put up a stinker against…
The Mets used 66 players in 2025, with 46 of those appearing on a pitching mound at some point in their 162 games.

Meet the Mets Down in Arizona, Mets prospect Chris Suero is only 21 and putting up some of the best numbers of any catcher participating in the Fall League.

If there’s one Knick that us fans can say we know the best, it’s Mitchell Robinson. Big Meech is the longest tenured MSG resident by a significant margin, having been around the franchise since being drafted in 2018.
