The Giants can't catch a break. Just as Brandon Jacobs declared that his leg feels good and that he expects to play tomorrow night against Denver, we learn that Ahmad Bradshaw likely won't be available because of a sprained left ankle sustained against Atlanta on Sunday. And the Giants' ...

After Thanksgiving, we're commencing a "fun" project here at The Sports Section: We're going to go see every New York City college basketball team play a home game. (First up: Next Thursday, Central Connecticut State at St. Francis. Feel the excitement. ) Most of these teams will be ...

Last night's premiere of the Yankees' World Series film at the Ziegfeld Theatre was the rah-rah affair you'd expect it to be. The fans in attendance cheered at just about every cheerable moment — and if you've ever seen one of these films before, you know there's one every two ...

Would you believe that this man had a threesome and tried to cover it up? It strikes us as vaguely unlikely. He's not a wide receiver, after all.
Anyway, a mentally ill man in Philadelphia apparently attempted to extort "$20,000-$30,000" from Giants coach Tom Coughlin, claiming he ...

He's thinner than this now … but not THAT much.
When we were just out of college and had all that stoned free time, we would sometimes, just to boost our low self-esteem, play epically unfair sports video-game mismatches. You know, our 1985 Chicago Bears against an NFL Europe team, ...

Marian Gaborik scored twice, but got some help for once.
We here at the Sports Section have been worried about the Rangers lately. We've bemoaned their bad offensive habits , which in turn have led to a slumping power play and general lack of scoring. And just yesterday we wondered what ...

Marian Gaborik
There are plenty of reasons the Rangers have only won four of their last fourteen games. Henrik Lundqvist hasn't been stealing many games, for example, and just about every forward not named Gaborik or Prospal is mired in a season-long slump. But here's a question to ponder: Who's that ...

Remember all that fuss last week about Bill Belichick going for it on fourth and two? Well, the good thing about being a Giants fan is that you never have to worry about calls like that. Our team doesn't like going for it on third down.
Consider the Giants' penultimate possession ...

We're going to assume that most of you, the ones who keep half a wary eye on the Knicks from time to time but generally are just waiting around until 2010 to start paying attention (we do not blame you for this, at all), will not be watching many more Knicks games now that they decided ...

When Tony Gonzalez somehow came down with the ball in the end zone with 28 seconds remaining yesterday, you'd have been forgiven for thinking, Here we go again . The Giants had been in control for much of the game, but when you're losing the way this team has over the past 42 days, things ...

Before the 2008 season, the New York Jets spent an inordinate amount of money to improve their team, signing Alan Faneca, Calvin Pace, Damien Woody, and Ty Law. Later, they would end up bringing an odd fellow named Favre into the fold as well. The message was clear: Coach Eric Mangini and ...

The most exciting action in New York City sports this week involved the Coaches vs. Cancer Classic at the Garden, with North Carolina beating Ohio State and Syracuse beating California. (No more reason to worry about Le Moyne, Orange fans!) That's right: We are now outsourcing our sports ...

We know everyone wants to talk about Allen Iverson right now, whether you're angry that he's not coming, or relieved that he's not coming, or just bewildered over how you're going to actually watch this team now that he's not coming. But we're not here to talk about ...

Sorry, A.I.
After all the debate and teeth-gnashing, after countless head-fakes from Donnie Walsh and Mike D'Antoni, the Knicks have reportedly decided NOT to go after Allen Iverson . Well.
Obviously, as we mentioned earlier, we think this is the right move — even if everyone ...

Mark Sanchez, last stand.
Generally, there isn't an ideal time to play the Patriots, who, after all, are consistently one of the best teams in the NFL. But a week after a ridiculously high-profile loss, one in which their famously cranky coach was second-guessed more than ever in his ...

We've made no secret of our love for hockey, but one thing that's no fun at all about hockey is its free-agent signing period. The trend lately has been for virtually every player of note to sign within the first 24 hours, meaning once that day passes, you're left with no more news, no ...

Bucks guard Brandon Jennings scored nineteen points, grabbed four rebounds, and dished out eight assists last night in a Milwaukee win over the (still winless!) New Jersey Nets. It was perhaps his least dominating performance of the season. A week ago, he scored 55 points against the ...
