Here are our picks for the top stories that affected NYC and our state this year. It's been a very eventful year.
The Shot Heard Around NYC, November 29: Fame, fortune, and a Super Bowl ring apparently meant that Giants star wide receiver Plaxico Burress needed to carry a gun. Unfortunately, it also meant he shot himself in the thigh while fumbling with the gun—which had slipped down his track pants—while at a Manhattan nightclub. He turned himself into the NYPD, since his gun was unlicensed. Mayor Bloomberg criticized Burress, the Giants and the hospital that treated him (the hospital didn't contact the police as it should have). Burress was suspended from the Giants and could face mandatory prison time of 3+ years if convicted.

Every day I give thanks that my wife and kids are healthy and I still have a desk waiting for me. Good luck to you all in 2009!
Thank you for a Year in Review that didn't make me want to barf. Here's to 2009!
You missed the best story of the year... How can you not include the President's near death by shoe? Love him or hate him that had to be one of the top three by my estimate.
