Delightfully ironic New Yorker who writes about sports for a living.
Apropos of the Dodgers trading three prospects to the Tigers for Tarik Skubal, and Major League Baseball's inevitable lockout of its players in order to implement a salary cap, cost certainty does not mean that teams in (insert sport here) will be run competently.
Talked to @Finks_thoughts on the @Hockeypodnet about the state of hockey media and what the future could portend. Here is the @youtube link so you can watch: youtu.be/lwfPkaMo8T4?...
Like so many others over time, Pavel Dorofeyev was enraptured by the allure of New York. Becoming a member of a historically significant NHL franchise appealed to him. Envisioning himself on the same stage where as Igor Shesterkin and Henrik Lundqvist and Wayne Gretzky...

After seven seasons with the @bluejays.com, Bo Bichette returns to Toronto for the first time with the @mets.com. I caught up with him for the @TorontoStar @StarSports earlier this season: www.thestar.com/sports/blue-... #MLB #NYM #NYMets #Mets #BlueJays #Jays
Bo Bichette is adjusting to life with the New York Mets. His time with the Blue Jays helped him prepare
After signing a three-year contract worth $42 million (U.S.) per season in January, Bichette’s debut in New York didn’t go as planned.

Or they will trade fifteen as part of a package for Mason McTavish and keep sixteen. In a related story, my snarkiness had it coming. #NHL #NHLDraft

.@KevinWeekes on Matthew Schaefer and the Islanders: "He's accelerated the program." Which is something I wrote about for @TorontoStar @StarSports in March: www.thestar.com/sports/nhl/h... #NHL #Isles
How Matthew Schaefer allowed the Islanders to dream big again
The New York Islanders haven’t won a Stanley Cup since 1983. An 18-year-old defenceman from Hamilton has allowed the franchise to dream again.

Per @puckpedia.com, the Panthers still have $7 million in cap space. So, no, I don't think Bill Zito is done. puckpedia.com

A lifelong New Yorker, who proclaims himself a sports fan unparalleled, announced on a social media platform that he learned during these playoffs that Jalen Brunson is a superstar. So that's fun.
The day after the Game 4 ECF win, I talked to Long Island Knicks fans for @newsday.bsky.social @NewsdaySports in Penn Station about what a championship would mean. “It’s going to be absolute mayhem in the best way possible,” one said. Another said, "It would mean the world.”

The New York Knicks have won the NBA championship. I repeat: The. New. York. Knicks. Have. Won. The. NBA. Championship. #NBA #NBAFinals #NYK #NYKnicks #Knicks
One step forward. One step back. Two sentences. Six small words. That may very well encapsulate the story of the 2026 Mets season. A day which began with optimism that perhaps the Mets had begun to right their ship ended with feelings all too common over the first 10 weeks of their...
