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 bats tonight making him halfway to the Golden Sombrero. It’s just an example of a player that who it and because the Mets are not performing as a whole, Davis has become public enemy No. 1 at Citi Field with the daily chatter about his woes. “It's certainly ...
Mets continue to struggle, so does Ike as Reds sweep series
With Matt Harvey on the mound Wednesday afternoon at Citi Field, there was every opportunity for the New York Mets to get a win. But with the team struggling to score runs, Harvey had to be at his best and sometimes in baseball that is hard to do. Harvey allowed a career high nine hits and left with the fifth no decision in his last six starts. Ike Davis continued to struggle at the plate, and on the field as the Cincinnati Reds completed their second consecutive three-sweep over the Mets at Citi Field with a 7-4 win. New York scored four ...
Nathan’s is Back on Coney Island!
Nathan's Famous held a grand re-opening of their flagship location on Surf and Stillwell avenues on Thursday at noon.

The menu has not changed, but there is a new addition to it that really links it to its past. Nathan's has opened ...

NEW YORK -- Facing the prospect of getting swept out of the NHL Eastern Conference semifinals by the Boston Bruins, the New York Rangers battled back with the help of their home ice -- but, not in the way you might think. Taking full advantage of a couple of big-time Boston blunders at Madison Square Garden on Thursday night, New York rallied from deficits of 2-0 and 3-2, to win, 4-3, on a goal by left winger Chris Kreider (one goal, two hits), 7:03 into overtime, to force a Game 5 in Boston, on Saturday evening. Already down 3-0 in the series ...
And1 Relaunches Streetball Tour, Will Hold Tryouts In New York
Its Mixtape Tour spawned a generation of freelance hoops stars who loved the game but not the fully controlled nature of high school, or college or even the NBA, and led the way for the term streetball. Flashy nicknames, trash talking tees, and hip hop music all fell into a cultural revolution based on the hardwood. While streetball never really went away, its light certainly dimmed for a while. But now the brand synonymous with that genre is back, and it’s bringing its high flying and flashy tour with it. On Wednesday the AND1 apparel and sneaker brand, in conjunction with ...
