Rangers finding gems in their youth movement
The great news starting out this new year is that the Rangers are sitting on a solid 24-12-7 record with a 6-2-2- posting in the last ten games including a modest two-game winning streak. Moving into third place in the highly competitive Metro Division is a solid sign that the Blueshirts are finally marching forward instead of backwards (think of their performances back in November.)
To Get Ready for Giants vs Vikings, Let’s Take a Look Back at their 1993 Wildcard Matchup
For the first time in 6 years, the New York Football Giants are playing in a playoff game on Sunday. This fanbase is juiced up, this team is juiced up, and everyone believes that the Giants can knock off their opponent, the Minnesota Vikings. The Giants let one slip away back on Christmas Eve against this same team and lost on a 61-yard field goal. To get ready for the Giants and Vikings Wildcard matchup, let’s look back at these 2 teams meeting in the 1993 Wildcard round.
Giants Enter the Playoffs With the Mantra “Our Way”

Jets’ Season: History repeats itself
There’s nothing left to say. the 2022-23 NFL regular season is officially over and the New York Jets yet again will be watching the postseason from their living rooms. A season that started with a lot of promise and actually got the Jets some attention during the mid-season ended yesterday pretty much the same way every other season has ended since 2010 – unceremoniously and without a shot at the playoffs.
Rangers looking to break out in 2023
Ah, yes, we’ve made it past the holiday season and now’s the time to start enjoying a new year of sports that hopefully brings some sense of hope and joy for fans. The Giants are heading to the playoffs, the Jets are, well, doing what the Jets have been doing for quite some time and all three local NHL teams – Rangers, Devils and Islanders are all winning and looking at the Stanley Cup playoffs as I’m writing this article.
Get Ready for Giants vs Eagles with their 1981 Meeting
The New York Giants travel to Philadelphia this Sunday to play their last game of the 2022 season. The Giants are locked into the 6 seed for the playoffs, but the Eagles are playing for an NFC East title and home field advantage throughout the playoffs. To get ready for this one, let’s take a look back at the Giants and Eagles November 1981 meeting at Veterans Stadium in Philadelphia.
Laying Down Against the Eagles is a Massive Mistake
The New York Football Giants are in the playoffs for the first time in 6 years. Along with that, they are locked into the 6 seed, meaning the result of this game against the Eagles does nothing regarding their playoff positioning. Make no mistake about it though, this game is not meaningless for the rest of the season. Reports are that the Giants will be resting key players, and if you’re asking this fan, that is a massive mistake.
Giants Reach Playoffs! Does Gettleman Get Any Credit?
The NY Football Giants trounced the Indianapolis Colts Sunday, 38-10, to assure themselves of the sixth seed in the NFC playoffs. QB Daniel Jones led the way throwing and running for a total of four touchdowns. Head Coach Brian Daboll and his staff coached a nearly flawless game. The Giants will make their first trip to the postseason since the 2016 season.
New Year – Same Jets
Hey, it’s a brand new year and time to celebrate the New York Jets making it to the playoffs for the first time since 2010! What do you mean, they failed again to make the postseason? Yes, Green and White fans, the Jets will miss the playoffs yet again and while the 2022-23 season started with so much promise now will end up the same way the last 12 seasons have ended – as a sad dumpster fire.
Are Lafreniere and Hajek on the Rangers’ trading block?
With the approaching New Year rapidly upon us and we’re waiting for the stroke of midnight to start the calender all over again, it’s time to realize that for NHL teams, a different clock is ticking and it relates to impending player trades. The clock is now ticking on the March 3rd trade deadlines and as teams try to gear up for the unofficial “second” part of the season after the Christmas break, many teams including the Rangers are looking hard at potential trades with some teams wanting to pull the proverbial trigger before the trade deadlines. The question then remains – who’s on the trading block?
Get Ready for Giants vs Colts with the Giants 1993 Playoff Clinching Victory
This Sunday, on New Year’s Day, the Giants face the Colts in what is their biggest home game in a long time. The crowd will be raucous and I’m sure the players will be fired up as well. The reason for all this excitement is that the Giants get into the playoffs for the first time in 6 years if they beat the Colts. To get ready for this matchup, let’s take a look back at the Giants and Colts meeting back in 1993.
The Giants Need to Clinch a Playoff Berth the Right Way Sunday
The New York Football Giants face a playoff clinching scenario on Sunday. It’s real simple:. Following a heartbreaking loss to the the NFC’s number 2 seeded Vikings, it seems like a shoe-in that the Giants will win. But what if they don’t? Well then that is ok! There is still 3 scenarios to get in if the Giants lose and if those don’t play out, the Giants can still get in with a win over Philly in week 18. But here’s the thing, if the Giants want to make any noise in the playoffs, the only way to get in the playoffs is by winning on Sunday.
The Rangers’ Christmas season is looking bright
The Rangers must still believe in the spirt of Santa Claus because their Christmas wish is starting to come true and this 2022-23 season is finally looking bright for the Blueshirts. With the brief Christmas holiday hiatus in full force until tomorrow, it’s time to take stock in what’s gone right and what’s falling apart for the Rangers so far this year.
The Jets must be on the Naughty List
Earlier this season, things were really looking up for the New York Jets and even the various NFL pre- and post-game shows were singing praises about the Green and White. Well, that’s come to a crashing halt and in case you didn’t hear about it over the hustle and bustle of last-minute holiday preparation, the Jets season probably burst in flames last Thursday night.
Get Ready for Giants vs Viking with their 2003 Upset
I said last week that the Giants were in a playoff game, and they came out on top. Now, they have a chance to clinch a playoff spot this week and give the Giants fanbase a hell of a Christmas gift. In order to do that, they have to beat one of the NFC’s best in the Minnesota Vikings. To get ready for this one, let’s take a look back at the Giants 2003 upset over the Vikings.
Red Bulls’ 2023 Schedule Unveiled
On Tuesday afternoon, Major League Soccer and its teams released regular season schedules and information. Included, of course, was the New York Red Bulls’ schedule. The team’s announcement video parodying The Sopranos (albeit without the iconic intro music) was a nice touch. Even if the New Jersey Devils beat them to it a few years back.
Daboll Loses his Full Beard! Giants Win! Inch Closer to Playoffs
With a winless streak of four games (0-3-1), the NY Football Giants traveled to Washington, DC to play the Commanders Sunday night. Prior to the game, Brian Daboll shaved his beard down to a simple goatee looking to change the Giants’ karma. The result was a win for the Giants, an 88% chance to make the playoffs, and an excited fan base heading into the Christmas holiday.
Really?
Really? That about sums up yesterday’s game against the Detroit Lions. No offense to the Lions – they earned that victory and good for them for turning around their season. The Jets gave that one away as an early Christmas present to the Lions’ faithful. If any fanbase knows about suffering more than Jets fans, it’s those who follow the Honolulu Blue and Silver.
The Blueshirts are on a roll – finally
Well, it must be Christmastime because Rangers fans are finally starting to get some of their holiday wishes – a winning team. In fact, if the season ended tomorrow, the Rangers would claim an Eastern Conference wild card spot and be in the Stanley Cup playoffs. As 2022 comes to a close, the Blueshirts are on a roll with the expectation to keep up these winning ways.
Get Ready for Giants vs Commanders with their 2006 Season Finale
Make no mistake about it, this is a playoff game Sunday night for the Giants and Commanders. Whoever wins this game between the Giants and Commanders see’s their playoff chances go into the 80th percentile. Whoever loses, see’s their playoff chances shrink to a very small percent. These 2 teams obviously met 2 weeks ago and played to a tie. Now, the Giants travel to Washington to try and keep their season alive and get to the playoffs for the first time in 6 years. To get ready for this one, let’s take a look back on the Giants and Commanders meeting back in the final week of the 2006 season.
