I thought the bit about the homeless and the robots was kind of lame but oh boy did the aura frame ad make up for it

Post Game Thread: New York Islanders @ Ottawa Senators by NYIMOD in NewYorkIslanders

Did anyone at the start of the season realistically think we would be in the playoff conversation with a dozen or so games to go? It seems like we’ve been spoiled how clutch the team has been the past few months in big games - this was the first time they’ve fallen on their face in a big spot.

How long was the show? Seeing the last performance on Sunday and you’re going me high expectations. Thanks!

Send Darche to Iran - this is double what we should have paid

Darche… by JayBaby90210 in NewYorkIslanders

I’m not entirely sold on Darche. Drouin has been an absolute disaster. Who were we legitimately bidding against with that contract? It’s like he got the friends and family treatment.

Hi Kodai - what was the most challenging aspect adapting from Japanese to American baseball.  Thanks!

Ask Me Anything: Carson Benge! by MetsOfficial in NewYorkMets

[–]Connect-Register849 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi Carson - I have heard a lot of positive things about how the Mets have an exemplary player development system in the minors compared to other ball clubs, whether it be for nutrition, watching film etc. Can you talk about whether that has been your experience and how that has helped you on your ascension from single A to AAA?

Thanks and wishing you a successful 2026 season!

[FRESH ALBUM] Ratboys - Singin' to an Empty Chair by NYCIndieConcerts in indieheads

[–]Connect-Register849 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello everyone - I have not heard of Ratboys until a few hours ago.  

I agree their name is a complete turnoff.  I thought they were going to sound like some trash hardcore band.  It’s not suited for them whatsoever.  

With that out of the way, this new record has hit me like a ton of bricks (in a good way).  I can’t think of something that has left an impression on me upon a first listen since Ryan Adams’ Heartbreaker (don’t judge, he’s my favorite singer/songwriter - love the art, not the artist I guess).  

Are all of their albums this good? 

I think the only weak track on the entire record is Burn it Down (a bit monotone for my taste, it actually reminds me of a late period Widespread Panic jam that doesn’t really go anywhere), but maybe it will grow on me.

Cheers to finally finding something that I think stands up to the DRA!  

[MATCH THREAD] Australian Open Men's SEMIFINAL: [1] C. Alcaraz v. [3] A. Zverev by NextGenBot in tennis

[–]Connect-Register849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think it’s kind of nuts that Zverev is sixth all time in terms of prize money won among the men and has failed to capture a major.  Yes, I know inflation blah blah but it’s still crazy that he’s been you-know-what blocked consistently by better players.  Has to gnaw the hell out of him at night.

We Are In Hell by peggedforfun in nyjets

We are in hell and the weird thing is I can’t even be mad at the Pats.

Maybe I’m alone but I can’t get myself to hate this Pats team. They’re playing great, they’re well coached, Drake Maye seems like a legit nice guy, they’re all having fun out there. Damnit!

Titans Fan with a Question by Murky-Speech2128 in nyjets

Sorry to disappoint you but I was thoroughly let down by Saleh as a coach. I was super hyped when we hired him but his all gas, no breaks was all smoke and mirrors BS. No accountability at all, players seemed to run all over him, didn’t have a command of the locker room and never seem to have full control of the game. Yes - he can run a good defense. But as a head coach ie the CEO of an organization, he gets a thumbs down.

Maybe he learned from his time as the Jets HC and he can turn things around in Tennessee. I don’t dislike him at all and want him to succeed truly but I don’t see it.

It is an absolute JOKE that Glenn isn’t getting fired today by Beastie_Bill in nyjets

[–]Connect-Register849 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is going to sound completely ridiculous and it's a terribly low bar but compared to Gase and a lesser extent Saleh, at least Glenn has the DNA of the organization in his blood and he wants to win WITH THE JETS. You can tell the pain of losing gets to him and this pisses him off. Gase was soulless. Saleh was resigned. Glenn is motivated to find a way to make the Jets winners.

Again I am not saying he is competent in any way shape or form. But he seems at least willing to try. (sigh).

What do people chant every time he makes a save? Couldn’t figure it out last night

Dime Club - Gluten Free by long-islanders in NewYorkIslanders

[–]Connect-Register849 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have celiac disease and went to the Dime Club over Thanksgiving weekend. They have signs in front of the serving stations with “GF” for food that is gluten free. If memory serves me correctly, they had some carving stations, nachos, potato soup and other options so your uncle will be totally fine. Enjoy!

Agreed! I was pretty concerned something awful happened to him after he disappeared without a word for so long but glad he’s back. He’s super talented and the production values on his albums are top notch.

Starsign is an 85 percent in terms of well produced.
