New York Mets

Mets Need To Do Something With Ike

Flushing, NY – Before the season if you said ‘51’ to Ike Davis, he would probably think that’s the number of homers he would have this season. Come next week, ‘51’ will be the name of his team. Davis looks terrible at the plate, swinging pitches out of the zone for his first two at [...]

Repeat Performance: Knicks Shut Celtics Down Again for 2-0 Series Lead

NEW YORK — If the New York Knicks’ postseason continues the way it’s started, their fans will think it’s the early 1990s all over again. Actually, even the Pat Riley-led Knicks of that era didn’t shut teams down in the playoffs quite the way the current Knicks have silenced the Boston Celtics in the NBA [...]

New York Islanders

Sports Beat “Be realistic about the Isles”

It has been 30 years since the New York Islanders won their last Stanley Cup and frankly they have been abysmal for most of the years between 1983 and now.
