Jets Face a Must-Win Situation at New England in Week 11
This is the most excitement and enthusiasm we have seen surrounding the Jets since the 2010 season. For the first time since 2015, there is hope that the team can actually make the playoffs, which stands out when looking at NFL odds. Coming off a bye week at 6-3 in...
Jake LaCava Draft Upsets Red Bulls Fans
The loss of Jake LaCava from the New York Red Bulls was a frustrating moment for fans on Friday night. While the 21-year old winger never got his chance to play in Major League Soccer, his potential was something many fans were looking forward to seeing. Instead, the team left him unprotected during the recent Expansion Draft. There, the incoming St. Louis CITY SC selected him with their fifth pick before immediately trading him to Inter Miami CF.
The Jets Bye-Week: Getting ready for a tough haul ahead
The New York Jets had the bye-week off this past Sunday and it probably couldn’t have come at a better time. Looking at the AFC East standings, it’s still almost amazing to see the 7-3 Miami Dolphins in first place with the New York Jets at 6-3 in second place. The supposed Super Bowl-bound Buffalo Bills took a heavy loss yesterday to the much-improved Minnesota Vikings and the New England Patriots at 5-4 also had a bye week.
Rangers put on firepower show against the Red Wings
What a difference a week makes. Last week, the Rangers dropped a crucial overtime loss to the Red Wings at Madison Square Garden and the Blueshirts looked to be in “Groundhog Day” mode repeating the same losses over and over again. Until Thursday night, the Rangers have been tied at the end of the second period in seven of their last nine games before losing either in regulation time over overtime. Then, the firepower show started and when it was all over, the Rangers looked like a team on a mission to get their season back on track.
US Men’s National Team Expectations at 2022 World Cup
The US Men’s National Team will be back in the World Cup this year after failing to qualify for the 2018 World Cup in Russia. The US Men drew Group B for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, which includes England, Wales, and Iran. The expectation of this group...
Get Ready for Giants vs Texans with their 2006 Matchup
The 1-6-1 Houston Texans are coming into MetLife Stadium on Sunday to take on the 6-2 New York Football Giants. I think I can speak for all Giants fans when I say that I’m happy the bye week is over. Although the Texans own a poor record and the Giants are 5.5 point favorites, the Texans should not be taken lightly. These 2 teams 2006 matchup proves just that.
Despite Donaldson’s Return, The 2023 Yankees Should Look A Lot Different
Whether it was the end-of-season press conference last week, or Brian Cashman speaking to the media at the GM meetings, it seems all but confirmed that Josh Donaldson will return to the Yankees in 2023. It makes a lot of sense because Donaldson is coming off a disappointing year offensively...
Rangers need to reverse early season slump
You’ve heard me say this multiple times before – the NHL season is a marathon race and not a sprint. That being said, the New York Rangers are quickly falling off the pace of that marathon by casually walking while even the 80 year-old joggers are passing them by in this race. Right now, the Rangers look anemic amidst an early season slump and they need to find a way to fix their problems-now.
Jets bounce back with another great win
Maybe, just maybe it’s time to start thinking about the New York Jets having a winning season this year. Saying that the Jets will win at least three more games might be premature but after Sunday’s win over the division-leading Buffalo Bills 20-17, the Jets are becoming more and more of a team on the rise and a true threat each week. The bounce-back win with Buffalo is further proof that something positive is working in the Jets’ lockerroom right now.
Blueshirts fall in early season test
As the NHL season moves into it’s second month, the New York Rangers are looking for ways to keep any momentum going and capitalize on their current 6-4-2 record which puts them in an unenviable third place in the Metro Division right now. Yes, it’s still early in the season but the Rangers recently had a three-game winning streak and failed to extend that streak against the red-hot Boston Bruins. The loss to Boston proved to be a solid early season test and a possible warning for issues to come for the Blueshirts.
Astros And Phillies Illuminate Flaws In Yankees Organizational Philosophy
The Yankees season has come to a close, and it was once again they have been beaten by the Houston Astros. Unless you want to talk about a retractable roof, there are no excuses this time. No cheating allegations to fall back on. The Astros have lost George Springer, Carlos Correa and Gerrit Cole and the gap between Houston and New York has widened. It’s even worse when you consider that Cole joined the Yankees.
Jets take a few steps back on Sunday
If you have been a Jets fan for longer thay say one week, then you just know to expect setbacks during the season. Taking a couple steps back with this franchise is just par for the course and shouldn’t come as a surprise. With the close 22-17 loss to the Jets’ nemesis New England Patriots, the feel-good four game winning streak is over and now the Jets look to find a new runway to take off from in the coming weeks to regain their composure and move forward with the 2022 NFL season.
Rangers hitting a rough patch early on
Anyone who has ever read any of my articles know that I am the last person to try and hit a panic button early in the season. Yes, the Rangers have hit a rough patch in the ice early on but a little bit of adversity can go a long way in helping a team define itself and find its way to bigger and better things. Remember, the Rangers faced multiple daunting challenges along the way in the playoffs last season only to emerge victorious through the first two rounds and took the Tampa Bay Lightning to game six of the Eastern Conference finals.
Get Ready for Giants vs Seahawks with the Giants 2010 Blowout
The 6-1 Giants travel to Seattle this week to take on the 4-3 Seahawks. Both these teams are a bit of a surprise as no one expected either to be where they are at record wise. It shows just how unpredictable the NFL is (kind of like Kadarius Toney getting traded). To get ready for this matchup, let’s look at the Giants and Seahawks matchup from 2010.
Is the Breadman on target for 100 points this season?
With the 2022-23 NHL season settling in, the New York Rangers have found some of their offensive “groove” with multiple players finding opponent nets with the passing of each game. Artemi Panarin currently leads the NHL in scoring with 12 points and the big question is whether or not he will hit the magic 100 point mark this season.
Showing Some Love to Love as Giants are now 6-1
In what Defensive Coordinator, Wink Martindale, calls a “positionless defense”, Julian Love is all over the field making big plays. Isn’t it time to recognize his “smart, tough, and dependable” play and show him some love?. The New York Football Giants are an unexpected 6-1....
Jets win again, may have lost Hall for the season
Jets fans should be somewhat excited right now with a third win in a row and what looks to be a bona-fide winning streak for the Green and White as the Jets took care of the Denver Broncos on Sunday with a grindout 16-9 final score. However, injuries are starting to mount after this week’s victory and these losses will no doubt be keenly felt in the coming weeks of the season.
The Rangers’ early success filled with speed bumps
With the newness of the 2022-23 NHL season out of the way, the New York Rangers sit with a comfortable 3-1-1 record and currently are in second in the Metro Division. By all means, the early season has been a relative success for the Blueshirts. However, long-time sports fans know too well the dangers of complacency and being satisfied with “second place.”
Get Ready for Giants vs Jags with their 2014 Heartbreaker
When I put out these blogs, I usually don’t write about losses. But for this week’s game, I felt this one to be appropriate. The Giants head into this matchup in DUVAL as 3 point underdogs. Many Giants fans feel this to be disrespectful, well I don’t. The Giants are 5-1, and there is no one happier about that then me. With that being said, it’s important to not let our record get into our heads, and it’s even more important to not underestimate any opponent. Let’s dive into the Giants and Jags 2014 matchup.
The Evolution of Sports Betting in New York
Almost a decade ago, the Empire State legalized sports betting at its commercial casinos. A law passed in 2013 allowed the construction of four commercial casinos in the upstate region. The federal ban on sports wagers was repealed in 2018 by the Supreme Court. The state watchdog on gambling and...
