A few years back, I caught up with Lenny Dykstra and the feisty CF said Mets manager Davey Johnson made a mistake by not taking Dwight Gooden out in Game 4 of NLCS. The former Mets manager passed away on Sept. 5 at the age of 82. See full interview at: https://youtu.be/HE_cUwamO64?si=7NiRAEo1dg1CssFZ

Thurman Munson passed away on Aug. 2, 1979 when his plan crashed in Canton, Ohio. His teammate Bucky Dent reflects on the Yankee captain and former Rookie of the Year and AL MVP. Muson won 3-consecutive Gold Gloves and bated .373 in 3 World Series Appearances. Munson hit .357 in 30 post-season games, amassing 46 hits.

Long before my sports radio career started, I trained with ABC's Julie Eckhert in 1990. I should have tried to be an extra in Goodfellas instead. Not sure why I loved black turtlenecks - wait, I still do! Back then thin ties, hairspray and tanning salons were the thing. None of which mattered in radio -LOL!

Radio Prof. Mike Damergis interviews veteran journalist Dom Amore about his latest article in Baseball Digest on Babe Ruth's final days with the Boston Braves. The Bambino gave fans one last hoorah in Pittsburgh on May 25, 1935 by belting 3 home runs. Ruth could have called it quits after the game, but stayed on a bit longer.

When he was hired as head coach at Iona two weeks ago, Dan Geriot came with a track record of professional basketball success, having spent a decade on the staffs of two NBA franchises and working alongside the likes of LeBron James, Kyrie Irving, Kevin Love and Zion Williamson among others. James, in particular, was among many NBA players to laud Geriot’s skill set when his arrival in New Rochelle was declared official, taking to social media to praise the former Cleveland Cavaliers assistant coach, who also spent time with the New Orleans Pelicans this season. Geriot was officially introduced in his new capacity Tuesday, ushering in a new regime at a proven winner and selling himself as a forward thinker whose goal is to develop talent and groom them for the next level while also upholding a winning standard that has existed for a majority of the past half-century. “It’s already felt like home here,” Geriot said as he was introduced by Iona athletic director Matt Glovaski as the Gaels’ 16th full-time head coach, and fourth in the past seven seasons. “We’re giving Iona what it deserves. With this support and alignment, we have an ability to change players’ lives, and vice versa. Players can change our lives with the type of guys we’re bringing in.” The 36-year-old Geriot, along with Craig Moore—hired last week as Iona’s first-ever general manager, a growing trend in college basketball with the advent of the transfer portal and NIL legislation changing the landscape of the sport—will need to hit the ground running as they take over a program that played for a MAAC tournament championship on March 15 before former head coach Tobin Anderson was unceremoniously axed two days later. “The consistency we put into this thing is the most critical part,” Geriot said as he discussed his plan to build a winner. “I’m going to be on the court with (the players) every day. We’re going to have the best player development program in the country.” “That’s what I’m after every day. That’s what we did for a decade in the NBA. I want to focus on guys who can really dribble and pass. There’s a lost art to what we’re doing, and that will be something you’ll see a ton of as we continue on this journey.” At the moment, only three scholarship players from this past season still remain on the Iona roster, with the remainder having entered the portal in the wake of Anderson’s stunning dismissal. It should be noted, though, that no Iona player has presently committed elsewhere, giving Geriot and his staff—which will retain assistant coach Pat Wallace—an opening to potentially re-recruit some of last year’s Gaels back to New Rochelle. “The people in this program are going to matter so much,” Geriot insisted. “We need to understand that people matter more than anything else, and we need to get selfless faster.”

This video is dedicated to the eternal memory of Penelope Stratigeas (1947-2001). My mother grew up in White Plains on Holland Ave. along with her three sisters (Maria, Betty and Christine), brother (Nicholas) and cousin Paul. She attended White Plains High School and in 1965 married my father, George Damergis and moved to Smithtown shortly after. I was born in 1966, my sister Anna in 1971. After their divorce, the family moved to New Rochelle in 1977. In 1986 she married Basil Litras and moved to Rye. Though we lost her in 2001, her love and boundless beauty lives on...
