Instead of whining and being "gutted" perhaps he could get his skinny ass down to Lower Manhattan and Staten Island and help out in the recovery efforts.

I take your point, Mark, but I don't think he is gutted for himself,
but for the charity he was runnung for, Get Kids Going.

His other gripe is, why wait until Friday afternoon to call it off? By
then, 90% of the participants had to pay their airfares and
accommodation charges.

I feel that should be his only gripe. Yes, the mayor blew it by making the
call too late for people like your friend to adjust, but ultimately it was
the right call.

who really need them.
There's another nor'easter storm coming on Tues/Wed. It will not be
another Sandy and should affect mostly northern New England, but it will
draw in colder temps and it's possible NY, NJ and CT will get some wind and
rain. There are still a lot of people who don't have proper shelter down
there. I hope Obama is having a great time campaigning. I've been
reading the news reports coming from the UK news sources. Their reports
all say FEMA and the Red Cross haven't given a thought to the folks on
Staten Island. has

Hi David,
The Giants stadium, technically called MetLife Stadium, is located in East
Rutherford, New Jersey not in the middle of New York City. :)
