We're Suspicious About the Other 1,499!

Newsday sports columnist Jim Baumbach argues that Islanders legend Al Arbour doesn't deserve credit for the win that gave him the nice round number of 1,500 career victories.


Some readers disagree, and voice their disagreement with the intelligence for which Newsday's irate readers are known.

This fellow must be commending Baumbach's work ethic, calling him an "I Do It."


In Hillside, New Jersey, "go cut lawns" must be the equivalent of "your mother" in other parts of the country.


On Long Island, however, being accused of Rangers fandom is the biggest insult of all. Unless you're a Rangers fan.

Wang Was So Impressed, He Made the Guy General Manager of the Team

An article discussing the partnership of two filthy-rich Long Islanders, Charles "I made $670 million in 1995 but only Sanjay Kumar goes to jail" Wang and Scott "I fought Carl Ichan and I won" Rechler mentioned this about the real estate titan: "Scott Rechler does not know much about hockey."



Some Islander fans would argue: Neither does Charlie!
