The guide to rooting for the NFL playoffs
In what is becoming a recurring theme, the Giants aren’t going to win the Super Bowl this year since they once again didn’t reach the playoffs. Now I need to figure out which teams to root for this postseason.
The key to a happy and healthy 2020 is not letting the Yankees manager ruin it
I understand these resolutions are rather meaningless since I can easily see myself breaking at least one or possibly all three within the first week of the season.
Here’s an excerpt from my book, The Next Yankees Era: My Transition from the Core Four to the Baby Bombers. *** On the morning of Oct. 18, 2004, I woke up in my Beacon Hill dorm in Boston and didn’t really care and certainly wasn’t worried about what had unfolded just a few hours earlier. The […]

There’s no getting upset or frustrated because there’s no expectation to win, just lose, and the Giants are as good at losing as any team in the league. Now with seven straight losses, the Giants currently […]
The former Ranger returned to Madison Square Garden
I can still see Mats Zuccarello standing at center ice waiting to begin his shootout attempt in his first NHL game with Sam Rosen setting the stage. “In his first NHL game, here he comes, in against Dan Ellis, to keep it alive … slows down … fakes … SCORES!” A skilled, undrafted Norwegian forward, […]
