Definitely an odd choice to have Ajer on the bench. Hoping we get the good version of Collins today considering how big this match is.

Today it was snowballs. Tomorrow, someone could paint a black circle on the side of a mountain, causing our officers to drive the train into the mountain, turning the train into an accordian that plays a sad little tune indicating that the officer has been seriously injured

"NYPD attends playful snowball fight, disrupts it unnecessarily and are upset to be hit by snowballs" is one hell of a story.

Is there any sport blowing it worse than MLB when it comes to trying to keep passionate fans engaged and involved? The blackouts are already bad enough.

Really vile stuff from a truly vile politician. The post initially claimed they "blankets" came directly from Mamdani and only then edited it to claim they are from an unnamed nonprofit organization.

I'll keep you posted. Likewise have a packed April but this would be a fun one.

Can confirm that the new Williamsburg bike entrance is as good as we all hoped for.

I am not exaggerating in least when I say that I cannot wait to get off work simply so I can ride through this new bike entrance.

Wasn't this the guy that claim he was going to close his stores and leave New York if Mamdani won?

Wonder what right-wing influencers are thinking right now? This sheet-pan banitsa will make you feel like you're in Sofia.

Weirdly seems to have nailed the Brentford prediction, however, despite most folks having them closer to the relegation zone.

getting dave portnoy out of new york is one of the most compelling arguments in favor of zohran
