Mike Francesa does not like what he sees in Washington. Some political commentary from his latest BetRivers podcast: I am disappointed in both sides. I really am. I am disappointed that we haven’t learned our lessons, that we haven’t done a better job trying to make things better in what is a very tough time … Continued
Baseball in the Big Apple has been fun to follow for the majority of the 2022 MLB regular season. But honestly, it doesn’t get much better than what the Yankees and Mets both did on Tuesday night. Each squad faced a sizeable deficit late in their respective games, yet used a couple of monstrous swings … Continued
Christopher “Mad Dog” Russo wants the record books rewritten. The WFAN legend believes Yankees slugger Aaron Judge is two home runs away from being baseball’s true home run king. And that he should be considered the rightful single-season leader over Barry Bonds once he passes Roger Maris and hits his 62nd homer. “Bonds is not … Continued
Hollywood has officially run out of ideas. From TMZ Sports: Eli Manning’s portrayal of “Chad Powers” — a dude trying out for the Penn State football team — was so damn funny, the production company behind the two-time Super Bowl winner’s skit has been fielding offers from entertainment execs wanting to work with the signal-caller. … Continued
For the first time since 2016, the Mets are headed back to the postseason. New York secured this opportunity with a road win against the Milwaukee Brewers on Monday.

The Giants are arguably the biggest surprise in the NFL after two weeks. But does their early success and 2-0 start change the calculus for Daniel Jones’ future? Mike Francesa says no. “I don’t think Daniel Jones [is the Giants’ future],” Francesa said while answering listener emails on his BetRivers podcast. “The Giants won in … Continued
We’re two weeks into the 2022 NFL regular season, and all is well in Giants land. New York is in first place with a 2-0 record, fans are excited and loud, and head coach Brian Daboll has been successful in putting faith in his players to get things done. So naturally, let’s stir the pot … Continued
It must be very hard to wake up and not immediately have a smile on your face if you’re a Giants fan. The squad is actually winning games they’d likely lose in the past, and head coach Brian Daboll has guided New York to a 2-0 record in the process. After snatching a Week 1 … Continued
Does Yankees slugger Aaron Judge look like he’s on the verge of reaching milestones very few MLB hitters have achieved in the game’s history? If he’s feeling any kind of pressure, he’s not showing it. And that’s the case for both how he discusses it with the media and his play on the field. As … Continued
With the Cowboys and Bears on deck, could the 2-0 Giants start the season with four straight wins?
Technological innovation stops for no one. Not even Aaron Judge and his home run chase. There is a good chance the Yankees slugger will tie or break Roger Maris’ American League and franchise record of 61 home runs on Friday. Which is when the Bombers’ game against the Red Sox is set to be broadcast … Continued
The Mets are in. The Amazins clinched their first postseason bid in six years on Monday night in Milwaukee, downing the Brewers, 7-2. More on ESNY: • WFAN’s Joe Benigno loves Joe Flacco (just 7 days after destroying him) • Will Yankees’ Aaron Judge pass Roger Maris on … a streaming service? • Jets just … Continued
Say it with me, everyone: for the first time in six years, the New York Mets are headed to the playoffs. It’s been a wild ride between that NL Wild Card Game appearance in 2016 and the 2022 squad. A ride that’s only worthy of belonging to the Mets. New York has gone through six … Continued
Two of Daniel Jones’ three touchdown passes have been caught by tight ends, who aren’t featured much in Brian Daboll’s offense.
Anthony Volpe may not be the Yankees’ shortstop of the future after all. From The Athletic: Some rival scouts are not convinced top Yankees prospect Anthony Volpe will remain at shortstop, believing he ultimately might end up at second or even third base. One scout compares the 5-foot-11, 180 pound Volpe’s body type to that … Continued
One week ago, Joe Benigno was calling for Mike White. Now, he’s a Joe Flacco fan following his incredible performance vs. Cleveland.
I will be the first to admit it: I completely missed the boat on Eli Manning’s post-NFL life. After spending three seasons reporting on him (2015-17) as a Giants beat writer, I assumed Manning would more or less disappear once he retired. Not that I knew him terribly well — feel, if any, people who … Continued
A new-look Knicks team means there needs to be an equally new-look team effort. Look no further than last season to see why. For one reason or another, the Knicks never got on the same page as a team and it all devolved from there. RJ Barrett was streaky in an otherwise career season and … Continued
The Giants have played far from perfect over the first two weeks of the NFL regular season. Doing everything perfectly isn’t the most important thing, though — winning is. New York has done that well, as the squad is 2-0 for the first time since 2016. How strange of a feeling is this for the … Continued
In case you missed it over the weekend, the Mets’ season is back on, folks.

We’ve been talking a lot about the Mets’ soft September schedule, and for good reason. All contending teams dream about being in first place and having the league’s weakest remaining slate of regular-season games. However, this stretch was looking more like a nightmare through the first few series. It included a 4-2 road trip between … Continued
After yet another two-homer game on Sunday in Milwaukee, Yankees slugger Aaron Judge has 59 home runs and is on the precipice of history. New York’s next six games are at home, which sets the stage for a terrific moment in the Bronx. But what if he hits his 62nd home run on Friday when … Continued
We have a very 2022 situation developing with Aaron Judge’s home run chase. The Yankees slugger has hit 59 homers. He is two away from tying Roger Maris for the American League and franchise records and three away from passing him. And when he hits 62, a sizable portion of the baseball-interested population will consider … Continued
Welcome to Victory Monday times two … The Jets saved their season. And quite possibly Robert Saleh’s career. The absolute worst-case scenario for the Jets entering this season was to become irrelevant before Zach Wilson returned from injury. And that would have more or less been accomplished with an 0-2 start. So they needed Sunday’s … Continued
The Yankees would have preferred to win their weekend series with the Brewers, but Milwaukee put up three tough games with an even tougher team. New York avoided the sweep and prevailed in Sunday’s nailbiting 12-8 win, thanks to two more Aaron Judge home runs. The MVP contender has 59 for the season and can … Continued

The Jets trailed the Browns in Cleveland all day during their Week 2 matchup, but they kept hanging around and it ended up paying off. First, it was Garrett Wilson catching his first career touchdown pass to get the Jets even at seven early in the second quarter. Right before halftime, Breece Hall caught another … Continued
Robert Saleh has receipts. And he has a desperately-needed win. The Jets stunned the Browns, 31-30, on Sunday, scoring 14 points in the final 1:22 to shock the Cleveland crowd and back up their embattled head coach.
