The Yankees continued poor defense, poor baserunning ("Running the bases like drunks!"), and overall poor play speaks volumes about their inability to go far in October.  I discuss the continued woes as well as why we should hang on to our young assets at the trade deadline.

  • Yankees:  It’s time for the soft Yankees to stop accepting losing.  Pollyanna Boone and his band of merry losers need to get mad, and not just accept this extended poor play. Bad play is one thing.  Accepting it is quite another.
  • NY Rangers: the NY Rangers and Drury continue to turn the team over.  With K'Andre Miller traded, Gavrikov signed, the Rangers have so many new faces, and a new coach, and .. new announcers.  What ...

The Yankees hitting has been atrocious in June, both in production and more importantly in approach.  Also, I discuss tempering expectations and how Anthony Volpe 100% cannot be the Yankees shortstop of the future.

The Rangers traded away Chris Kreider to Anaheim, as the team shakeup continues.  Drury's chaos continues as he looks to disrupt this team.

I discuss the return, and all the plusses and minuses of Kreider now and over the years for one of the most loved Rangers.

Rutgers Basketball's most disappointing season EVER is over.  It ended in appropriately brutal fashion in the 1st round o the Big 10 tournament.  I discuss the the shortcomings of the team, the coaching, and the overall program leadership and strategy going forward.

  • The Yankees ominous injury ridden spring is already a disaster.  If Cole's injury is long term, it becomes a catastrophe.  
  • The Rangers shuffled a lot of players, and I analyze all of Chris Drury's moves, as the team battles more injuries.

The Four Nations tournament was the epitome of hockey excellence.  I discuss the brilliance of it, vs the NY Rangers suckage Saturday - hockey at its best and worst.

Should the Rangers BUY or SELL at the trade deadline? The Rangers enter the 4-Nations break 3 points out of the wild card spot.  There are strong arguments to be had on both sides.

Dylan Harper returned and led Rutgers past #23 Illinois in a huge home win.  Also, the Rangers came back late again, and beat Boston 3-2 . They look great with JT Miller so far.

Rutgers basketball's season appears done as the offense sputtered against Michigan, and injuries continue to mount in a 66-63 loss.  I discuss the disappointment and frustration for RU fans.  

Also, JT Miller shined in his Rangers’ debut, but the Rangers appear to be flailing again, losing 6-3 to Boston.

The Rangers landed J.T. Miller in a big trade with the Canucks. They paid a steep price though, sending Chytil, Victor Mancini and a first-round pick to Vancouver.  I discuss the risks for both sides in this huge deal.

Rutgers basketball lost 80-72 to Penn State on the road Monday.  Bailey was great, but lost his temper and fouled out with 2 technicals.  17 turnovers, 23 fouls and Harper having his worst game as a Knight (7 pts) finished the Knights.

Rutgers lost 44- 41 to Kansas State in the Rate Bowl in Arizona.  A 2nd half collapse sealed Rutgers’ fate.   Rutgers offense closed the year very strong, but the D did us in.

Rutgers lost in brutal fashion 83-82 to Princeton at The Rock in Newark Saturday. It appears at this team is simply not as good as Rutgers fans had hoped. This team cannot play D or rebound a basketball if someone handed it to them, and I am done thinking this team is going anywhere this year.
