The Devils have made a very good choice as GM

Earlier today Devils President, sometimes GM, sometimes head coach, most times organizational gadfly Lou Lamoriello has hired former Penguins GM Ray Shero to the same post in Newark. Shero is a smart GM who managed to keep the Penguins competitive over the last decade winning one Stanley Cup in 2009. Sure, winning the draft lottery for Sidney Crosby in 2005 can make any GM's life easier but Shero also surrounded Crosby with smart draft picks and good value free agent signings. Johnny wishes him well and the stakes on this are high indeed. There are viable cites with viable NHL arenas waiting for franchises to fail. The Devils attendance has them on that precipice even during good regular seasons. Shero needs to work some magic here, and quickly.

If you were a poor Indian with no weapons, and a bunch of conquistadors came up to you and asked where the gold was, I don't think it would be a good idea to say, "I swallowed it. So sue me."

A stunning Jersey City Sunday!

Do get out there and enjoy! Johnny's been out a couple times and he's headed out again soon. These are the days you dream of on those bitter cold Sundays in January and February.

Instead of paying attention to that overhyped and by most accounts underwhelming fight tonight between Mayweather and Pacquiao, the staff here at the Jersey City Desk wants to give you a real prize fight to enjoy. The classic 1934 famous Pop Goes the Weasel' fight scene in "Punch Drunks" from The Three Stooges.

Saturday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with OHIO PLAYERS!

Johnny said to himself that he owed you all some rock and roll after last night and instead of overthinking each week's selections as to what sounded good with something else or some hidden theme only Johnny sees or just the right songs fit that night, he said the next three songs that come on the iPod are tonight's Music Series. Thank the Flying Spaghetti Monster one of them wasn't Captain and Tenille or Pablo Cruise. Ohio Players start a hot set tonight with 'Fire'

Saturday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with SONIC YOUTH!

Did you say utes?


No, youth, as in Sonic Youth as in get ready to rock around the house whenever it's on. 'Kool Thing' makes us happy!

Saturday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with THE PRETENDERS!

So, yeah, once again sorry about last night and let's rock on outta here with a hot live version of 'Day After Day'

Apologies for the lack of updates citizens, hardware issues

Into each life a little hardware issue must fall. Johnny and the staff are dealing with a hardware issue, one we hope to get fixed up on a permanent basis ASAP.

We thank you for your patience.

Johnny's Browns went an entire draft night without soiling themselves for all to see. In fact, they did well. Up is down and down is up all day tomorrow.
