Latest blog entries from New York teams across every league
Alright! Right..? The Nets, winners of two straight, were the talk of the NBA after a 23-point comeback in the second half on Saturday. It was their fifth-largest comeback in franchise history. Then, the Grizzlies out-tanked them in the first half of this back-to-back. Fourth-worst-record in the league. 18 games remaining. 🏀 KEY INFO Who: Detroit […]
With the Western Conference a tight-knit race yet again this season, this series will look at the standings and games to watch across the league as the Lakers look to secure home court and move up the standings. LA is now sitting at the No.5 spot in the West after beating the Pacers and Knicks […]
According to multiple reports, unrestricted Free Agent Nahshon Wright signed a 1 year deal with the New York Jets worth $5.5 million. The 6’4” 200lb five-year vet enjoyed a career year with the Chicago Bears after being drafted out of the 3rd round in the 2021 NFL Draft out of Oregon State. Going from practice […]
It’s over. The Knicks have finally completed the final gauntlet on their regular-season schedule. Beginning on February 4 with a double-overtime victory against Denver, the Knicks played 16 games, with 12 against teams in playoff position. The 34-day stretch saw the team face Detroit and Denver twice, San Antonio, Boston, Cleveland, Philly, Houston, Toronto, and […]
When the Jets acquired Geno Smith from the Raiders, the immediate reaction from some corners of the internet was predictable: flashbacks to the ugly early years, the broken jaw, the struggles. But before you let nostalgia suck the life out of you, it’s worth honestly examining what actually happened in Las Vegas because the story […]
Luka Dončić may have avoided a technical against the Knicks on Sunday, but he did not avoid punishment. Teetering on the edge of an automatic one-game suspension if he receives one more technical, Luka has been a toned-down version of himself with regard to the refs over recent games. However, that doesn’t mean he’s been […]
Spring training is all about watching talent you can dream on—even with the fever-pitched debates around the futures of Jasson Domínguez and Spencer Jones in Yankee circles, it’s always a treat when either of them connect. Today, both of them homered early in the Yankees’ 4-2 Grapefruit League victory over the Phillies in Clearwater. J.C. […]
The Mets topped the Cardinals 6-1 in Tuesday’s Grapefruit League game to earn their fourth straight spring victory. The Mets improved their Grapefruit League record to 9-5 (along with one tie).
The New York Islanders made a big addition at the trade deadline, landing veteran center Brayden Schenn from the St. Louis Blues in an 11th-hour deal just before the 3pm ET buzzer. Schenn had to be convinced by GM Mathieu Darche & head coach Patrick Roy, however, to waive his no-trade clause before the deal was consummated. The Islanders, as it turns out, didn't have the same luck with their own player, forward Anthony Duclair. According to insider David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period , h...
The Las Vegas Raiders ended up getting a little something for Geno Smith as they agreed to trade him to the New York Jets. The Jets will get Smith and a seventh-round pick and the Raiders will get a sixth-round pick. It’s the same trade the Raiders worked with the Buffalo Bills on Sunday night […]
Former Jets quarterback Geno Smith will once again be the current Jets quarterback. Adam Schefter reports the Jets will reacquire their former second round pick in trade that involves a late round pick swap. Smith was a second round pick out of West Virginia in 2013. His four year stint with the Jets was tumultuous. […]
Pardon our delay on the game thread this afternoon! It’s spring training for all of us, but we did want to get one set up in case anyone wanted to chime in on the Yanks/Phils road matchup today. Luis Gil will aim to build on his much more impressive last time out in comparison to […]
The Knicks flew to LA, and they made sure to make it look like Hollywood lights don’t translate to winning nights—for New York, at least. The Knickerbockers will remain on the road for a couple more games, yet they will surely get a break as Utah and Indy come up next. Here’s the latest from […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers were very active to kickoff the opening day of legal tampering, the unofficial beginning of the new league year. In total, Pittsburgh made six moves, ranging from re-signings, free agent signings, and trades. In light of those moves, these are my grades for every one of them. CB Asante Samuel Re-signing Samuel […]
Over the last few days, the Mets made their first roster cuts of spring training, cutting five players from major league camp. Jack Wenninger, the only one of the five not on the 40-Man Roster, was reassigned to minor-league camp, while the four players on the 40 were optioned to Triple-A. Those four players are […]
And just like that, the Nets took care of business yet again! We’re streaking! The Memphis Grizzlies were lacking their eight highest paid players. So, Brooklyn used a balance of perimeter offense and size down low to literally out man the Grizzlies. As I predicted, Day’Ron Sharpe did his thing with 19 points on 8-of-11 […]
The Jets were active on the first day of free agency. The team made six additions on the defensive side of the ball through five signings and a trade. The Jets also retained the services of fullback Andrew Beck. A number of starters also departed the team. Quincy Williams, Nick Folk, John Simpson, and Alijah […]
With last night’s 126–118 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers, their second straight defeat, and the Cleveland Cavaliers beating the Philadelphia 76ers 115–101, the cushion the New York Knicks once had in the standings is suddenly very thin. New York now holds just a half-game lead over Cleveland for the No. 3 seed in the […]
Steve Howe was an extraordinary pitcher. Featuring a bowling-ball sinker that he could locate with pinpoint control, his arm talent and tenacity distinguished him from the competition at every stage of his baseball life. He accomplished things on the field that should form the foundation of a proud legacy. Unfortunately, Howe never got the chance […]
The Philadelphia Flyers have been on a roller coaster this past weekend, beating the Pittsburgh Penguins 4–3 in a thrilling shootout victory Saturday night before getting embarrassed at home by the New York Rangers 6-2. Not much has gone right for this team lately, but one positive development has been Matvei Michkov’s shift to the right wing and the effectiveness we’ve seen from the move. In the wake of the Flyers dealing forward Bobby Brink to the Minnesota Wild in exchange for defensem...
The Vincent Trocheck non-trade is the latest in a series of decisions from Chris Drury that do not add up to a cohesive or effective plan.
As has been the case with all of our coverage surrounding young starting pitchers for the Yankees, their importance to the club early in the year would be hard to overstate. With each of Gerrit Cole, Carlos Rodón, and Clarke Schmidt on the shelf to begin the season, depth in the rotation will be vital, […]
