Islanders 5, Capitals 2: Bill Guerin, master of the assists, finally scored as the Islanders romped host Washington. The new captain had a hat trick as he got his name in the scorebook for the first time as an Islanders. He had six assists entering the game. Despite Guerin's heroics, Bryan Berard scored the go-ahead goal and added two assists. Thrashers 5, Rangers 3: Should the Rangers get credit for playing with spirit in the......

Red Bulls 5, Galaxy 4: Giants Stadium fills up for plenty of events, but Red Bulls games don't usually rank among those. Saturday's did, if only because David Beckham's Los Angeles Galaxy was in town. Those fans, who were there for Beckham and not the Galaxy, found another rare treat: goals in a Major League Soccer game. Soccer doesn't need frequent scores to be exciting, but the rare 5-4 game never hurt anyone. Not......

Yankees 8 Rangers 2: It’s amazing what some pitching can do for you. For the second night in a row and for only the 5th time in 31 games, the Yankee starter pitched seven innings. Tuesday night Andy Pettitte scattered seven hits while striking out four. New York had twelve hits with Alex Rodriguez going deep for his 15th of the year and the slumping Robinson Cano slashing two doubles while making a great relay......

-Washington 11 Yankees 9: If the Yankees miss the playoffs by one game, this is the one to remember. Fifteen hits and a seven-run lead weren’t enough for the pathetic Yankee pitching as they collapsed down the stretch and gave the Nationals an improbable victory. Mariano Rivera came in during the eighth inning and couldn’t stop the bleeding, giving up the tying run on a throwing error by Jorge Posada and two more runs......

In Saturday's game, the Revolution scored on goals from Felix Brilliant and Clint Dempsey, both rookies. The Revolution broke a three game......

One of the best things about the Oscars is Fametracker's coverage. This year's Galaxy of Fame :: Special Speculative Edition: What If They Win Their Academy Awards? seems spot on, as does their Oscar fashion handicapping. But what Gothamist liked best was their imagining of movies-turned-TV shows in 2007, like Lost in Translation, starring Amy Jo Johnson and Jim Belushi: You won't want to miss the season finale; John becomes suspicious about Charlotte's activities in......
