They were originally founded in 2006 as Jersey Sky Blue, the team was known as Sky Blue FC from 2008 until 2020, and as NJ/NY Gotham FC from 2021 to 2024. They won the NWSL Championship in 2023 and 2025. How Cool is that!? I love them and I'd love to attend a game. My friend gave me this string bag she got at the Citi Field Game. I'm recommending Gotham FC for sports lovers.

New York Yankees? Been a fan since the 90s, and always loved Derek Jeter! I even own a couple books…read moreabout him, and was always fascinated as he always seemed very humble. I've seen the Yankees play a couple of times when they've come to Arizona, and always dreamed of seeing them at Yankee Stadium. One day! Though, I watch less baseball since my grandpa passed 12 years ago. They forever hold a place in my heart as my grandpa and dad are from New York, so the Yankees were my team as Arizona didn't have one when I was little little. I'll support them when they play televised, and maybe I'll catch a live game soon.

And the list goes on and on...good bye baseball, good bye Yankees. I will save my hard earned money and read a good book for 20 bucks rather than deal with worthless team of rag tag players who have no competitive spirit. Hasta la vista!

I watched the New York Knicks win their first NBA title in 1973 while living in Okinawa. I was playing basketball and wore number 10 for Walt Frazier. Clyde had it going on. He could do it all. In fact, the whole team was stellar. Walt was a guard with Earl, the pearl, Monroe as the other guard. Forwards Dave DeBusschere, Bill Bradley and center Willis Reed rose to the top. It has been a long drought. It was nice to see the Knicks finally win a championship after all these years. My dad has an autographed jersey from Clyde. I will have to get it mounted. Back in the day, Walt was an extremely good player. He was also known for his flashy outfits. Last week I saw him at the last game the Knicks won in San Antonio. He was dressed in a multicolored purple suit. He looked fantastic for a young man! 5/5

An amazing playoff run capped by one of the most exciting comebacks ever to finish it off in game 5. It was a record setting magical playoffs run, and after 53 long years the Knicks are back on top. After many horrible years, some exciting seasons, and heartbreaks this team carried the hearts and souls of New Yorkers everywhere on their backs to the promised land. New York is alive and the city feels a bit brighter today due to the Knicks players grit, determination, and will to win. I'm still in shock, almost disbelief, and my soul feels so happy now that I've finally seen my team win it all. Even if it's just this one time that's all many of us wanted. We are filled with joy and happiness. Thank you, Knicks. Now, we have a parade to attend which will be one of the greatest ever. Finally, once again, we are NBA Champions. Go Knicks Go!

Make sure to check height requirements before you arrive with your kids.

My father took me back then but this time, it was a few years ago, so this review is much overdue. The girl is was dating lived on Coney Island Ave, coney is the Dutch word for rabbit i believe which there were many once upon a time before the invasion. People that live therebact like it's the greatest damn thing that ever happened to Brooklyn, but honestly, it looks and sounds like a pile of rickety lumber that's ready to collapse into the Atlantic Ocean, but I still love it anyway. ​It's been sitting on Surf Avenue since 1927. Some guy named Vern Keenan designed it, and it cost around $100,000 back then, which was a ridiculous amount of money in the twenties. They say Charles Lindbergh rode it before flying across the Atlantic and claimed it was more thrilling than flying a plane, which is probably a lie, but it sounds dramatic enough for tourists. ​The ride itself lasts less than two minutes, but it feels like you're being beaten up by a gang of angry lumberjacks. You plunge down an 85-foot drop at nearly 60 miles an hour, and the whole wooden structure creaks like it's going to break in half. People scream like they're being murdered the entire time. ​It's an official New York City landmark, so I guess you have to respect it for staying alive since the Calvin Coolidge administration. Give it four stars for being a tough old piece of history, even if the rattling almost shook my teeth loose.

First time able to attend the NY International Auto Show at the Jacob Javitz Center (April 3-12…read more2026)...or at least that I recall.. $22 per adult - can purchase tickets ahead of time or at the kiosk at the show. Came the last day of the show. Security line was quick which was a plus. You can bring your own bottle of water sealed and some snacks. Lots of cars to see from Cartainers as you walked in and Old Classics, McClarens. Electric Vehicles (EV) was this year's highlight and focus, high-end cars were up on the 3rd level. There is also merchandise as well for purchase. Toyota presentation was fun, energetic and lively. They gave out reusable bags to carry around and folks could win prizes for trivia during each presentation. Similar for a few other cars... Test ride- 2 outdoor and 1 indoor: Outdoor: 1) Jeep offroad 1 minute experience was fun but quite a wait.. 45 minutes on the line with 5 jeeps. White Rubicon, White Moab, Blue Rubicon, Blue Moab, Red Moab (which I rode in) 2) Toyota had 6 cars: Camry, Grand Highlander, 4Runner, RAV4 Hybrid, RAV4PHEV, and GR86. Lines and wait times were short except for the GR86 convertible...45 minute wait esp since it's 1 passenger...maybe 2 if small people. Indoor: EV Test Track - test ride the 8 EV cars brands. Had to sign up at the main booth and at each car booth (and get a wristband for each). Wait time for some lines were long.... Participants included: Cadillac, Chevrolet, Lucid, Toyota, Polestar, Kia, Ford. After 3 we stopped as it's the same ride but in different car and getting motion sickness from all the test rides esp the hard turns and breaks. A lot of time spent waiting for the test drives vs going around seeing the cars... which I found more interesting. 3 levels of cars - a lot to just look at and some to sit in. Got to sit inside a Chevy Corvette. Kia Sportage was probably the most comfortable to sit in as a drive. May cars didn't offer much leg room for the back seats which is a must. For those going car shopping, depends what you are looking for. Third Level: Kia, Lucid, Ford Mustang, Corvette, BMW, Mercedes Benz, Porsche, Lamborghini, Bentley, Rolls-Royce, Koenigegg, Zenvo, Nissan Didn't get a chance to see Wheel of Fortune which ran 11am-3pm Celebrity signing autograph with picture taking comes with a cost.. Food was expensive inside.. George's Sabrett Hotdog and pretzel was cheaper with the vendor by the test drive. $6 for hotdog and $6 for pretzel in comparison. Inside: $10 for a slice of pizza! The longest line and more rationale option was chicken tenders and fries or burger and fries- $17 Overall a good time at the show...plan wisely as one can spend an entire day here...we spent about 6 hours here.. but a lot of time waiting for the test drives. Til next year!

Manhattan, NY - this is my first time at the NY Auto Show, the oldest and largest consumer &…read moreindustry auto event dating back to 1900, held annually at the Jacob Javits Convention Center. We came on Easter Sunday and spent all afternoon exploring two massive levels and a couple of concourses of displays and activities. Electric vehicles were aggressively dominant, and from what I hear, the recent few years were all EV-heavy, with every manufacturer pushing their EV lineup. These were especially well-represented by the Korean & Japanese manufacturers (Kia, Hyundai/Genesis, Suburu had some of the most elaborate and impressive exhibits). Ford and Chevy really showed up too. Besides trucks, trucks, more trucks, and SUVs, there was a notable emphasis on off-road EVs (Subaru, Jeep). And honestly, with the current state of world affairs and rising gas prices, I'm strongly considering an electric or hybrid outback vehicle to take me to my homestead outpost and apocalypse bunker! The exotic and super/hypercars are always an exciting attraction, as who doesn't love ogling a Koenigsegg or Lotus or two! Although the selection is small, I'm totally here for all the billionaire boys club cars. The European corner had significantly less pizzazz than the rest of the floor. The German automakers brought mostly dealership-supplied cars. Audi looked like it had somewhere better to be and only gets a participation trophy. Deutschland was decidedly not über alles this time. Although I drive American muscle, I stan small & sleek Japanese sports cars and JDMs, and you get to see a good range of them and other souped up customs at the R2XPO Rides & Rigs exhibit on level 1, my favorite part of the show. It brought rally energy and was a refreshing departure from the corporate polish of the main floor. Actor Sung Kang from the Fast & Furious movies was there to promote his new film Drifter that weekend, and the line to meet him literally wrapped around the entire perimeter of the floor. The movie looks cool but the line looked miserable, so we passed on the meet & greet. The other highlight for me was the debut of the 2027 Nissan Z Nismo. Rad car, short line, they let you fiddle around inside, AND gave out posters. Right on! I must've been giving off mum energy (even though my child was nowhere near) as the Z rep cheerfully advised me that it even has a latch in the back for a car seat. I didn't ask, and I'm still laughing! (I mean, I do have the coolest ride at daycare drop-off though, no cap.) The Corvette area was also fun. Personally, I'm of the mind that such a classic should never be made electric until we are all roving around in hovercrafts - cos your midlife crisis vehicle ought to loudly flaunt the desperate reclamation of one's youth & masculinity with what only real petrol can conjure - but I'll admit their concept models look hella cool and futuristic. (I overheard a bro sneer, "you lost me at electric." Same!) River Pavilion houses a few marketplace vendors and the kids zone, where I stood in line for over 30 minutes so my child could have a 3-minute drive in a toy Jeep identical to the one he has at home and barely uses, while his dad takes him on a shopping spree of overpriced Hot Wheels ("but you can't find these models in stores!"). Come here if you hate yourself but love your kids. In keeping with the electric theme, there are plenty of charging ports around, even on some benches where you can take a break from staring at cars to stare at your phone instead, so that was a nice and thoughtful convenience. Here's the floor guide to help plan your time wisely: * LEVEL 3 is the entrance and main exhibit hall, showcasing the major brands and exotics. Plus Hyundai Ioniq ride-along track. * LEVEL 2 is mostly an open seating area with tables, and leads you to the North Concourse where the Camp Jeep and Toyota driving (ride-along) experiences are. The Jeep climb looks thrilling, but the tallest track was off-limits due to weather when we went. There's also a Starbucks on this level. * LEVEL 1 is more hip: R2X custom rides & rigs, EV test tracks, as well as vendors and NYS state agency recruitment booths. Want to try on some riot gear? This is your moment. * RIVER PAVILION: marketplace vendors and kids zone. We had a blast and the kiddo loved being able to get inside and "test drive" so many cars. 5 stars for the grand scale, organization, variety, and fun for car people and tag-along people alike. I'll be adding that Zenvo Aurora to my vision board!

Now everything counts…read more.. The calendar turns & weather is a little crisp. Well it's that time of year again. That 6 month marathon is over. Now it's a sprint to see who is the best in the land. Every pitch, every at bat and pretty much every play matters. One mistake can send your favorite team home for the winter. It will certainly be tough to beat last year's postseason. Yeah Cubbies. But there are intriguing teams that have had long droughts in October. Cleveland Indians & LA Dodgers are the favorites going in probably. Watch out for the Houston Astros (just a hunch).But this is why every little kid picks up a baseball. Someday to call themselves World Series Champions. From little league to riding the buses in the minors. Just to get this chance, even if it's that onetime. Heck, recently even a few wild card teams have gone the distance to win it all. Bullpens & the bench players are always a big part of a teams success, especially this time of year. Certainly takes all 25 players to survive and advance deep into October. Enjoy America's pastime at it's finest. I'll probably be on the edge of my seat, like every year. But please don't keep me up as late as last season.
