The Boston Herald has dropped a juicy behind-the-scenes look at the Patriots’ offensive dysfunction and ineptitude this season. No one comes off great in the report with the exception of recently-returned offensive coordinator/anticipated savior Bill O’Brien. But former Giants coach Joe Judge really gets touched up. And it all sounds quite familiar. From The Herald: … Continued
The Jets have hired Nathaniel Hackett as their new offensive coordinator. And look, he is certainly qualified. It is a reasonable decision. But there has to be some trepidation in turning to a guy who was one of the worst head coaches in NFL history, right? Well, not necessarily when he is Aaron Rodgers’ buddy. … Continued
James Dolan is not budging. “Not at all,” the Knicks and Rangers owner said Thursday during an appearance on FOX-5 when asked if he might back up Madison Square Garden’s controversial policy barring attorneys involved in litigation against the company and its holdings from its venues. Dolan and MSG have come under particular fire for … Continued
A lot of great things happened for the Giants this past season. There probably wasn’t a “make the playoffs and win a road game” on many 2022 NFL Bingo cards, but that’s exactly what went down. Now, general manager Joe Schoen, head coach Brian Daboll, and Co. will set out on an equally difficult task: … Continued
At the beginning of the 2022-23 NBA regular season, would you have thought Kyrie Irving would be angling for a contract extension from the Nets right now? Keeping a low profile off the court while balling out on it will do that. In fact, it sounds like Irving is trying to make it seem like … Continued
The Yankees might finally have some infield clarity for 2023. Brendan Kuty, now with The Athletic, reports super-utility man DJ LeMahieu feels “significantly better” after rehabbing a toe injury suffered last year. New York would love for the two-time batting champion to be back in top form at the top of the lineup. So who’s … Continued
You know, some say Canton is the East Rutherford of Ohio. The USFL’s New Jersey Generals are on the move. But they are still going to be far away from the Garden State. The FOX-owned operation announced Wednesday the Generals and Pittsburgh Maulers will be based in Ohio for the second season of the revived … Continued
Who could play quarterback for the Jets in what should be a crucial 2023 season?
James Dolan and Madison Square Garden may actually have to answer for their creepy and vindictive use of facial-recognition technology now. New York Attorney General Letitia James has called MSG on the carpet. Her office published a letter Wednesday that requests MSG provide information on its company policy barring “adversarial” attorneys from its venues. From the … Continued
While it ended in embarrassing fashion, the Giants’ 2022 season was quite remarkable considering the circumstances. It was Year 1 for general manager Joe Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll. Nobody thought Daniel Jones would be the answer at quarterback, and New York had a terrible salary cap situation to deal with. Yet, Daboll and … Continued
Mets first baseman Pete Alonso is preparing for his age-28 campaign in 2023. He’s been in the big leagues for just three full seasons (plus the pandemic-shortened schedule in 2020) but has already made a huge impact on the franchise. Alonso is the type of homegrown power hitter we haven’t yet seen in Queens. He’s … Continued
WFAN legend Christopher “Mad Dog” Russo works with malapropisms the way other artists work with oils or clay. It’s part of his charm. It’s why he is one of the greatest sports talkers of all time. But Doggie out-did himself Wednesday during his weekly residency on ESPN First Take. What's draft booty? pic.twitter.com/34KA76d96h — Awful Announcing … Continued
The National Baseball Hall of Fame made headlines Tuesday night. Third baseman Scott Rolen squeaked in by getting 76.2% of the votes (75% is needed). He’s just the ninth third baseman to be enshrined in Cooperstown. His election will also make it even more painful for Mets fans regarding fellow third baseman, David Wright. Let … Continued
Stephen A. Smith says bring him in! “If Aaron Rodgers went to the Jets, they can win it all,” the star of ESPN First Take opined Wednesday. “They can win it all. With that defense, if he went to the New York Jets, Aaron Rodgers in the AFC, against (Patrick) Mahomes, against (Joe) Burrow, against … Continued
We don’t know if Saquon Barkley is staying with the Giants. We do know Daniel Jones is, seemingly no matter how much it costs. And that general manager Joe Schoen needs to get him some pass catchers this offseason. Enter Mel Kiper Jr.’s latest NFL mock draft. The ESPN expert has the Giants snagging USC … Continued
The Giants’ season has only been over for a few days, and their crucial offseason has already gotten interesting. It looks like general manager Joe Schoen’s top priority is to re-sign quarterback Daniel Jones. He’d also like running back Saquon Barkley to return, but it’ll depend more on how negotiations go. In the immediate aftermath … Continued
The Jets have 23 of their own free agents. Who should general manager Joe Douglas re-sign? Who should he let walk?
We’re almost there. As we sit here on Tuesday, January 24th, we’re just 22 days away from Mets pitchers and catchers officially reporting to Port St. Lucie. After a whirlwind of an offseason that included tons of money getting spent, there’s not much left for New York to do. General manager Billy Eppler is still … Continued
At 6’7″, 282 pounds, Aaron Judge probably has a pretty sizable bubble gum budget. We’re talking three Costco-sized bags, minimum. And in a recent interview with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show, Judge shared he gets superstitious with his gum. Some might say this ventures on Wade Boggs-like behavior. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIeGRZBl7gY&t=521s&ab_channel=TheTonightShowStarringJimmyFallon The Aaron Judge bubble gum routine/superstition … Continued
The 2022 season was the definition of a roller coaster for the Jets and their fans. Unfortunately for everyone involved, the year ended with the worst part of the ride. Six straight losses turned a 7-4 team into a 7-10 squad. So, the focus is squarely on next season, and some are already feeling confident. … Continued
Are the stars aligning for quarterback Aaron Rodgers to play for the Jets next season? That’s still to be determined, but the rumor mill surrounding his status has been heating up since Week 18 was officially in the books. New York interviewed Nathaniel Hackett recently for its open offensive coordinator position. Since Hackett spent three … Continued
The Giants have a number of their own free agents. Who should they re-sign? Who should they let walk?
The internet is having a conniption over this tweet from the Cowboys’ official account following Sunday’s playoff loss to the 49ers. Dak Prescott gave away the ball twice in the narrow loss to the 49ers, in a matchup the Cowboys had a chance to win if they didn’t again generate self-inflicted wounds.#DALvsSF | #DallasCowboys — … Continued
Aaron Judge’s free agency technically didn’t last long, but it felt like an eternity for Yankees fans. While the slugger reportedly agreed to terms on December 7th, the speculation about whether he would be leaving the Bronx or not dragged on for months beforehand. We knew first baseman Anthony Rizzo could have an impact on … Continued
This is not about Saquon Barkley’s talent. Never has been. The initial talk about gold jackets and God’s Hand was a bit much. But the sentiment was sound. Most everyone believed he would be an elite player. And when healthy, he has been. But this is about his health. And the realities of modern NFL … Continued
If you thought Steve Cohen might have to cut back a tad following the Mets’ offseason spending spree, think again. From The Post: New York Mets owner Steve Cohen’s Point72 hedge fund generated more than $2.4 billion in profits for investors last year. Point72, whose headquarters are located in Stamford, Conn., posted a 10.3% net … Continued

Reading into Carlos Correa’s Instagram story a few weeks ago didn’t work out for Mets fans. Despite getting burned, it’s not going to stop some from potentially falling into a similar trap with second baseman Jeff McNeil. On Monday morning, the 2022 MLB batting champion snapped a picture outside Citi Field and shared it to … Continued
Mark Teixeira and Brian McCann just gave us a long-anticipated (and, honestly, better) sequel to Fritz Peterson and Mike Kekich. A brief recap: In 1973, Peterson and Kekich were both Yankees pitchers and close friends when they swapped wives, children, and even pets in spring training. Peterson and Suzanne Kekich are still together to this … Continued
The Giants exceeded every expectation imaginable during the 2022 NFL season. Just about nobody expected them to not only make the playoffs but also advance after winning one game on the road. That’s part of the reason why New York’s 38-7 blowout loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday stung so much. This now leads … Continued
The Yankees have been among baseball’s biggest spenders this winter. Dropping $500-plus million on Aaron Judge and Carlos Rodon will do that. However, there’s still a significant question mark on the roster in left field. It sounds like a preferred resolution is only possible if New York can unload either Josh Donaldson or Aaron Hicks … Continued
Joe Schoen spent his first offseason as Giants general manager cleaning up the salary cap debacle created by predecessor Dave Gettleman. But he will have a great deal more flexibility in Year 2.

The Giants couldn’t get past the Eagles in the Divisional Round. Big Blue lost to its divisional rivals 38-7 Saturday night.
The big guy is pulling no punches. “Eagles completely demoralized the Giants with their running game tonight,” WFAN legend Mike Francesa tweeted in the waning moments of the Eagles’ 38-7 blowout win in the NFC divisional round on Saturday. “Made the Giants quit. Ugly.” Other Francesa missives during the Philly romp: Does this take away … Continued
The Giants had a tremendous season. They exceeded all expectations and restored dignity to an organization that has sunk to the bottom of the NFL.

There are pros and cons to social media (that’s the understatement of the century).
