The Health Department has released their annual report on baby names in New York City, and among newborn boys the name "Jayden" is (almost) number one with a bullet, ranking #2 overall and #1 among black and Hispanic babies. Jayden wasn't even in the top ten in 2006, and baby name expert Laura Wattenberg shares a theory with City Room about the his stunning rise in popularity: Two years ago, one Jayden James Federline entered......

Forbes has put out their list of the Top 100 Most Powerful Celebrities, something to bicker about at the water cooler, no doubt.

With the 2006 World Cup only a day away, Gothamist thought it was about time to post about where you can watch it (of course, you may have to step away from the office for a bit). The list is by no means comprehensive as a lot of bars and restaurants are sure to show the world's most popular sporting event. A list of establishments that we came across in the extended entry. Feel free......

A rare photo to accompany Gothamist's weekly top 15 rankings. War Eagle indeed. Later this week, we're going to give you a list of places to watch some of the teams on this list. Last week's list and the BCS Rankings are out. 1. Oklahoma – Kansas St. game probably should not have been that close, but somewhat understandable given the let-down after the Texas win. Jason White and Adrian Peterson give the Sooners......

Loyal Gothamist readers will notice that there is little change in our rankings this week - there simply weren't many upsets or games involving top 25 teams last week. That will certainly change this weekend with several top matchups including LSU vs. UGA, Aub vs. Tenn, and Purdue vs ND. It will be a great weekend for college football junkies/coach potatoes! Naturally Gothamist will be watching every televised game from Noon until 2 am in......

Justin S. brings us his 3rd weekly ranking of the NCAA Division 1A teams. No movement in the top 5 from last week's rankings. 1. Oklahoma – Oregon isn’t great this year, but that’s still a quality win. 2. Miami 3 . Southern Cal – A young team that will improve as the season progresses. Pac 10 is weak, and getting Cal at home sure helps. 4. Georgia – How can a team with so......

As some of the top teams begin to play each other (FSU-Miami), we can finally begin to gain some insight into how good (or bad) they are. Some teams are without comments this week - if you blow out a cupcake, there's not much to say about that. Also, as you will see, our rankings can fluctuate from week to week - unlike the "real" polls, just because you win doesn't mean you won't drop......

With the first full week of college football now over, Gothamist Sports proudly unveils our first Top 15 ranking for college football. Ranking the top 15 this early is obviously a crap-shoot, but that's never stopped anyone before. It's difficult to rank teams early in the season, but we gave it a shot, so don't take it personally if your team is lower than you think they should be. We'll publish the rankings on Tuesday......
