That scholarship is rooted in his own experience as a Ugandan citizen of Indian origin who was twice rendered stateless due to political turmoil in East Africa during the 1970s and 80s. "We were migrants, and under the colonial system, migrants were defined as non-Indigenous," Mamdani said. That meant people like him were never made to feel fully at home in Uganda and were stripped of core rights.
***Once upon a time in the annals of New York National League baseball, Leo Durocher, then managing the Giants, pushed owner Horace Stoneham to purge his roster of its beloved mainstays for what Leo saw as a very practical reason: "It ain't my kind of team." If Leo had to wait around for balls to fly out of the Polo Grounds, there wasn't much managing for him to do. Soon after his midseason hiring in 1948, the transformation was on.
Jayden Daniels was supposedly healthy enough to go back into the game against the Minnesota Vikings despite taking a hard fall on his injured elbow. Just a few short days later, he was ruled out of the Washington Commanders' trip to the New York Giants in Week 15. It's unlikely that Daniels' issue has worsened, and he is still practicing in a limited capacity.
Olszewski was returning a kickoff late in the first half when he was first spun sideways by Marte Mapu, leaving him exposed to be hit by Elliss. There was no penalty because Olszewski was a ball carrier. Olszewski fumbled on the play and it was recovered by the Patriots. The hit was seemingly hard enough that it chipped the paint off his helmet decal.
A significant number of NFL fans fell for a fake report about New York Giants rookie Abdul Carter from a known parody account. Ahead of Monday night's game between the Giants and the New England Patriots, self-proclaimed insider Wesley Steinberg claimedthat Carter would be benched for the Giants' first defensive drive because he was caught watching porn in a team meeting when his headphones disconnected.
The city's beleaguered bus riders have languished at the bottom of the political food chain for decades forced to endure the city's slowest-in-the-nation buses as the political elite has prioritized the needs of drivers, businesses, app companies and, frankly, itself. Mamdani has promised to change that, but the history of transportation suggests it will be a struggle to get the people in charge to use their power to make the streets better for cyclists, pedestrians and bus riders.
Perhaps this latest fourth-quarter giveaway will be what the New York Giants need to see to fire defensive coordinator Shane Bowen. For a fifth time this season, Big Blue (2-10) lost a game in which they were leading in the final frame, which is the most in the NFL, after Jake Barnes' 59-yard field goal with 28 seconds left in regulation drew the Detroit Lions level at 27 apiece.
They love congestion pricing - and they're beefing over the Svengali of Gov. Kathy Hochul's congestion pricing "pause." Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani and Brooklyn Council Member Chi Ossé turned their friendship into a defining image of Mamdani's mayoral campaign. The duo gained the support of street safety advocates across the city, given their support of congestion pricing, bike lanes, and other improvements. But the two politicians are on the outs after Mamdani discouraged Ossé from primarying House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who persuaded Hochul to indefinitely delay the long-awaited implementation of congestion pricing last year.
The Association of Legal Aid Attorneys-UAW Local 2325 currently represents the lawyers with Brooklyn Defender Services and claims that the organization's executive director Lisa Schreibersdorf wanted to bring in a more management-friendly union to represent staff. A union delegate alleged that Schreibersdorf offered her chairmanship of the new company union and a reduced workload without any loss of pay. The delegate filed a formal complaint with the National Labor Relations Board in September.
"We had the openers planned the way that we wanted to run them, and we called the same stuff that we were going to call," Adams said. "I don't know if there were really any adjustments. You always have a plan for a player like that, but I don't think you go into it, 'Oh, let's throw this stuff out.' It was designed the way it was designed, so I
Skattebo, fellow rookie linebacker Abdul Carter and a bunch of other Giants teammates got into it with Judgment Day (Finn Bálor, JD McDonagh and Dominik Mysterio) ringside at Madison Square Garden on a night when legend John Cena was making his final appearance on Raw. Naturally, comedian Andrew Schulz was part of the fake melee, too. In the ultimate New York show, Skattebo was seated ringside wearing a New York Rangers jersey. Defensive lineman Roy Robertson-Harris rocked a New York Yankees jersey. Carter seemed to have a New York Giants belt draped over his shoulder as he threw haymakers.
There is a reason why New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt's role has dwindled to almost nothing over his three professional seasons. It was never more obvious than on Sunday afternoon at MetLife Stadium with Jameis Winston and Big Blue's offense 14 yards from punching in a game-tying touchdown against the favored Green Bay Packers. On a 3rd-&-6 with 40 seconds to go, Winston had enough time in the pocket thanks to the brilliant work from New York's offensive line to look for Hyatt, who had two catches for 17 yards on the day after posting just three catches for 18 yards over the first 10 games of the season.
The NFL goes international for the final time in 2025 as Washington and Miami meet in brand-new location for the league for a rise-and-shine Sunday morning contest at 9:30 a.m. on the East Coast. The New York Giants turn to Jameis Winston as they look to upset a NFC playoff hopeful before the Denver Broncos seek to defend Mile High from the invading forces from Kansas City in the late afternoon television window.
Antisemitism threatens not just one community, but the values that define New York City. New York City is home to the largest Jewish population outside of Israelmore than a million individuals who have helped define what this city is all about. From the bagel shops of Queens to the yeshivas of Brooklyn, to the start-ups and cultural landmarks of Manhattan, Jewish New Yorkers are part of this city's DNA. But in recent years, that sense of security and belonging has been shaken.
Drake Maye knew the questions were coming after a night where chants of "MVP!" rained down on him at Gillette Stadium. It came as little surprise that the 23-year-old quarterback deflected any talk of his rising stock as one of the top players in the NFL. And on Thursday night, he had an easy avenue to deflect said discourse. "May have been for TreVeyon tonight," Maye said of those chants. "He scored three touchdowns."
