The original “Rocky” is obviously the best film from an artistic and cultural importance standpoint. No one can argue that if they are objective. But there is no question “Rocky IV” is the most entertaining installment in the series. By a mile. The steroids alone get the job done. What I’m trying to say is … Continued
The former NFL quarterback and current Thursday Night Football analyst believes Zach Wilson’s tenure in Florham Park is done.
Carlos Rodon is the newest Yankee. And the big lefty has a fan in former Bronx Bombers ace CC Sabathia.

The Yankees unveiled their prized offseason acquisitions this week. First, it was making the Aaron Judge signing (and his captaincy) official.

It’s not a complicated goal, … Continued
Jets fans are not having a Merry Christmas Eve Eve. That was bound to happen after Gang Green fell well short in its Week 16 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The Giants face the Vikings on the road this Saturday, and a huge win would bring them that much closer to a playoff berth.
The idea of Michael Conforto coming home to the Mets in 2023 can finally be laid to rest, folks. Scooter will be playing with some of his former teammates, though. After losing out on every major free-agent target they had this winter, news broke Friday morning of the San Francisco Giants agreeing to a two-year, … Continued
Everything about Shohei Ohtani as a Major League Baseball player is historic. He’s accomplished things on the field we haven’t seen since the days of Babe Ruth. The 2021 American League MVP has even accomplished things Ruth wasn’t able to do during his own Hall of Fame career. With the Los Angeles Angels being, well, … Continued
Ah, Festivus. We all love the completely made up holiday invented by the best Seinfeld/TV character ever, Frank Costanza. The holidays are stressful enough and commercialism is annoying. Why not have a holiday that’s the exact antithesis of that? So how does Festivus apply to New York sports, specifically the Yankees yours truly watches so … Continued
The Knicks would love to remedy Wednesday’s tough, streak-breaking loss to the Raptors with a season sweep of the Bulls on Friday.

The Jets’ season is all but kaput after Thursday’s 19-3 loss to the Jaguars. So too is Zach Wilson’s career in town.

The Giants hired Joe Schoen to be their general manager back in January of 2022. One of his first big decisions involved quarterback Daniel Jones’ fifth-year contract option.

The Washington Commanders have added another budding scandal under their Christmas tree of shame. From ESPN: The Washington Commanders Charitable Foundation, which receives upward of 75% of its donations from fans and the public, is operating in a manner that calls into question whether it is upholding its charitable mission responsibly, according to two independent … Continued
The Yankees could have someone like Oswaldo Cabrera play left field for them in 2023. However, that’s not New York’s preferred solution. Even after making big splashes for Aaron Judge and Carlos Rodon, we know the Bombers aren’t necessarily done spending. If Brian Cashman had his way, he’d probably swing a trade with the Pittsburgh … Continued
Steve Cohen’s historic Mets spending spree has dominated the hot stove league. And one question on many minds locally in the wake of the shocking Carlos Correa signing: How would the old Boss have dealt with the new Boss? Mike Francesa believes the late George Steinbrenner would have tried to go toe-to-toe with Cohen. But … Continued
Six weeks ago, we wondered if the Knicks should keep employing head coach Tom Thibodeau. Six weeks later, I must eat some crow with a healthy side of my words.

With the … Continued

The Jets’ season is on the line. Gang Green will host the surging Jaguars on Thursday Night Football.

Can the Jets snap a three-game losing streak and keep their playoff chances alive with a big win over the Jaguars?
If you’re a Mets fan, you’ve probably spent most of Wednesday refreshing Twitter and pinching yourself to make sure this isn’t a dream. I’m here to deliver good news: it’s not. This is actually real life. Even if it feels like we’re in an alternate reality right now. Steve Cohen showed the Mets’ fan base … Continued
The Mets and Yankees have each made their fair share of big splashes this offseason, and it’s not even Christmas yet. The best holiday gift of all, though? The fact that neither team is done making roster improvements. Not long ago, we noted that the Amazins and Bombers had control of the top two spots … Continued
The Carlos Correa saga — already pretty bonkers to begin with — has taken yet another turn. The Mets swooped in and signed the All-Star shortstop (soon to move to third base) in the middle of the night after his deal with the Giants fell through. The initial reporting indicated the team had concerns over … Continued
Zach Wilson’s performance against the Jaguars on Thursday could decide the course of his Jets future.
As we’ve discussed several times recently, the Yankees need a left fielder. We’ve discussed multiple external options, namely Max Kepler and Ian Happ. Michael Conforto and his being a poor fit in the Bronx were also mentioned. But in-house, the Yankees have an intriguing left field option in super-utility player Oswaldo Cabrera. An infielder by … Continued
The Jets’ 2022 season has gone much better than many expected back in August. If you told any fan that New York would be 7-7 entering Week 16 with a chance at grabbing a playoff spot, they’d likely be shocked and elated. Things haven’t exactly been too smooth for quarterback Zach Wilson, but he’s in … Continued
The Yankees made their new contract with Aaron Judge official on Wednesday morning and officially named him the next captain of the team.

The Mets’ Carlos Correa signing in the wee hours of the morning was a stunner. Too stunning, according to loyal WFAN caller Dan in Carteret. “I got a problem with this late-night deal for the Mets here. There’s something very fishy about this, OK,” he told Boomer Esiason and Gregg Giannotti on Wednesday morning. His … Continued
The Mets kept up their incredible spending spree this offseason early on Wednesday morning with an agreement for Carlos Correa to play third base. The Yankees have made their fair share of big splashes over the past couple of weeks, too. However, there are probably a few fans wishing there was a splash to replace … Continued
Assuming Carlos Correa passes his physical — not here to be a downer, Mets fans, but it has to be said — the Amazins will have a projected $384 million payroll in 2022. That means owner Steve Cohen will need to pony up about $111 million in luxury tax payments, according to Cot’s Baseball Contracts. … Continued
This should be a good holiday for Jim Dolan. The Knicks are on fire, the Rangers are playing better, et cetera. Alas. The petty never ends. From The Post: She came to see the Rockettes’ world-famous kick-line — but got kicked out of line instead. Kelly Conlon, 44, was chaperoning her 9-year-old daughter’s Girl Scout … Continued
Like most Mets fans, I woke up in complete shock on Wednesday morning. I joked about Steve Cohen re-engaging Scott Boras about Carlos Correa upon hearing news of his press conference with the San Francisco Giants getting postponed. I wasn’t actually expecting something to happen. But like we’ve said a few times already this offseason, … Continued
The Giants’ Week 15 win on Sunday Night Football significantly boosted their chances of reaching the playoffs for the first time since 2016. Wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. was a part of that club.

Mere hours after the Mets were connected to All-Star closer Liam Hendriks in the trade rumor mill, they’ve agreed to bring Adam Ottavino back to Queens.

The Padres and Matt Carpenter have agreed to a deal for 2023 with a player option for the 2024 season, per a source. Carpenter will play something of … Continued
The Mets are in the market for another hitter. That doesn’t mean general manager Billy Eppler isn’t able to multitask, though. New York is also looking for opportunities to add to its bullpen. One name that’s recently surfaced in trade rumors is Chicago White Sox closer, Liam Hendriks. Metsmerized’s Mike Mayer reports the Mets as … Continued
