Credit Ron Turenne/NBAE, via Getty Images There is no N.B.A. record that would seem to be more fragile than the one for most 3-point field goals made in a regular-season game. It has to fall, sooner rather than later, according to the less famous of the record’s co-holders. “Right now, we know we’ve been fortunate to still have it and probably won’t much longer,” said Dony..

Credit Photograph by Ebet Roberts/Redferns/Getty It was always exciting to see, around town, those lovely posters by Paul Davis announcing a new production at the Public Theatre—“our” theatre, over on Lafayette Street, a place that promoted, before it was fashionable, color-blind casting, knowing that talent itself was not defined by race or gender but spirit. In 1980, the Davis poster showed a young actress named Meryl Streep in a piece called “Alice in Co..

    Cleveland Radio Dummy Cries Censorship
    When the Buffalo Bills made Kathryn Smith a full-time coach in January, Cleveland sports radio host Kevin Kiley did not like the hiring. “She couldn’t possibly be qualified to the same level that a man could be qualified to do that,” Kiley said on his Jan. 21 show on 92.3 The Fan. Thursday night, Kiley went on Cleveland 19 to announce that he was resigning for unrelated reasons, and blasted his employer for censoring him. http://deadspin.com/radio-dummy-on...

  • Tough Stretch Will Show Damaged New York Rangers' True Colors

    Tough Stretch Will Show Damaged New York Rangers' True Colors
    Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY Sports The Rangers will have a rough couple of weeks ahead of them. Which means the real New York Rangers are going to stand up. When Christian Ehrhoff was placed on waivers there were reports the New York Rangers were going to think (key word there) about picking him up, and use the team's defensive play against the Penguins to make that decision. The Rangers shut the Penguins out 3-0 in a game where their "top pairing" got roasted the entire night but was ..

In my travels I’ve learned that the needs from Buffalo to the Bronx, or from Mineola to Middletown, d..

    Schwartz: Paying Homage To Arguably The Greatest Arcade Game ...
    By Peter Schwartz » More Columns Back in the day, I was unstoppable. Whether it was a wrist shot from just in front of the goal, a blistering slap shot from my own blue line, or a perfect pass off the boards, I could do it all. And I wasn’t too shabby in the goaltending department, either! The reality is that I’ve never put a pair of ice skates on in my life. Yes, I’m talking about hockey, but not ice hockey. There was a time in my life that I dominated game rooms from Long Island to Buffalo in..

    Percy Harvin's contract set to void on Friday
    APThe Bills signed wide receiver Percy Harvin to a three-year contract last offseason, although there never was much chance that he’d see the final two years of the deal. With base salaries of $9 million for 2016 and 2017, those years were tacked on to make his 2015 cap hit easier to swallow as the Bills had the ability to void the deal after paying $3 million in salary and a $3 million signing bonus in the first year. As Sal Capaccio of WGR 550 points out, those years void on Friday at 4 p.m...
