From the desk: BROOKLYN TROLLEY BLOGGER

I'm on an unscheduled break as family and business come before pleasure and hobby.  But please know I am very grateful for the support of my followers and visitors to this blog.  Thank you all.

In the meantime, I am elated over the election of Gil Hodges into baseball's Hall of Fame.  However, I am also somewhat dismayed that former Brooklyn Royal Giants members Grant "Homerun" Johnson, Dick "Cannonball" Redding, and John Donaldson was not distinguished with the same honor. 

The Brooklyn Nets are tops in the Eastern Conference, but I fret they live a precarious existence.  Across the river, the Knicks have yet to match last season's level of defensive mastery.

Chris Kreider continues having a brilliant season (and it's about time).  An increase in team physicality is serving the Rangers well.  With 37-points to date, they are playing on par with the NHL's top contenders.  The Islanders opened the season on a 13-game road trip with a 5-6-2 record.  On November 7, they lost the first of eleven consecutive games until finally defeating the Senators on December 7 at Ottowa - a whole month after their previous victory.  The Isles have played six games in their new home, including one against the Rangers, and have yet to win at the newly opened UBS Arena.

Baseball?  Check out our most recent episode of THE METSIAN PODCAST with guests John Saponaro and Matt Ibanez, hosts of the TIL METS DO US PART PODCAST.  The show initially aired on 4 DEC 2021.

I'll be back ...

Thank you,

Michael
