On May 1, 2008 3:25 PM in Nets Owner Ratner Rumored to Sell Team to Newark, they said:

This would be a good thing. They have a perfectly good area in Newark where there was actual community support for it. Perhaps Ratner was mistaking in thinking that Marty Markowitz was some sort of Sh...

On April 30, 2008 1:26 AM in Last Night's Action: To The Brink, they said:

God, I miss hockey. I mean real hockey. You know the kind that would make Don Cherry proud and involves blood, stitches, teams in places like Manitoba, no sissy European rules like shootouts, and of c...

On April 24, 2008 4:11 PM in NYC Pizza Rules, But Does Anyone Really Know Why?, they said:

On April 22, 2008 3:10 PM in Feds Will Help Pay for NYC Papal Visit Costs, they said:

The RCs should step up to the plate and pay the rest. This insane nonsense doesn't happen when the Archbishop of Canterbury visits. Also, how much of a hit did this have on businesses in the frozen zo...

Re BongoBoy: We did say in "local news categories" and not overall. The only thing they won in any of those was for on air talent-sports with Al Trautwig. MSG's wins were basically for sports and ent...

On April 13, 2008 11:51 PM in Otterness Does DUMBO, they said:
