In a heartwarming ode to its roots, Häagen-Dazs unveils two new flavors, inviting ice cream enthusiasts to savor the essence of tradition and innovation. The release marks the ice cream brand’s first original flavors since 2022, signaling a return to its pioneering spirit.

Titled “New York Strawberry Cheesecake” and “Vanilla Caramel Pecan,” these creations embody the legacy of Häagen-Dazs founders, Rose and Reuben Mattus, who embarked on a journey from Poland to New York City. 

The former flavor, New York Strawberry Cheesecake, pays homage to the city’s famed dessert, blending velvety cheesecake ice cream with a swirl of strawberry sauce and delicate graham cracker crust pieces. Meanwhile, Vanilla Caramel Pecan reimagines a beloved classic, pairing creamy vanilla ice cream with decadent caramel sauce and caramelized toasted pecans.

The new flavors join the brand’s recent innovations, including Chocolate Cookie Crumble and Dulce de Leche bars, as well as a miniature version of its popular Vanilla Milk Chocolate bars.

Dwight Gooden still had one regret about his career, which was how his time with the Mets ended.

Prior to his number retirement ceremony, Dwight Gooden said more than once on Sunday he wanted to “make things right” with Mets fans after the way his tenure with the team ended in 1994, when he tested positive for cocaine and was suspended by MLB for all of the 1995 season.

“The fans stuck with me through everything,’’ Gooden said Sunday prior to his number retirement ceremony at Citi Field. “After ‘94, when the Mets cut ties with me, I always wanted to come back here.”

He got the opportunity on Sunday, when he recounted that he tried to return to the Mets as a player on several occasions, but the team never gave him the chance.

During his brief speech prior to Sunday’s game during an ill-timed rain shower, Gooden said he called the Mets following his two-year stint with the Yankees, which elicited a round of boos from the crowd.

Gooden responded, “I’m always a Met.”

Seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady shared a tribute to his longtime former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick following the team’s announcement to part ways with the six-time Super Bowl champion.

“I’m incredibly grateful to have played for the best coach in the history of the NFL,” Brady wrote in an Instagram post. “He was a great leader for the organization, and for all of the players who played for him. We accomplished some amazing things over a long period of time, many of which will be hard to replicate. He worked every day to help us achieve the ultimate goal, in the ultimate team sport.”  

“He set the tone for the organization, to never Falter in the face of adversity, and to do what we could do, and what was in our control, which was to go out and DO OUR JOB.” 

“I could never have been the player I was without you Coach Belichick. I am forever grateful. And I wish you the best of luck in whatever you choose next.” 

Fifty-one games into the season, Juan Soto is sparking chants of “M-V-P!” at Yankee Stadium.

“Way too early,” Soto said after his second two-homer game of the homestand led the New York Yankees over the Seattle Mariners 7-3  and stopped New York’s first two-game losing streak in three weeks.

“I love when when the Bronx gets behind our guys,” Yankees manager Aaron Boone said. “Obviously showing their appreciation for him.”

In his first season since the Yankees acquired him from San Diego, Soto is hitting .313 with 13 homers, 40 RBIs and a .978 OPS. The 25-year-old from the Dominican Republic repeatedly responds to the admiration and affection from the fans behind him in the right-field seats.

The Eastern Conference Final is set.

The Rangers will face the Panthers, who are looking for a return trip to the Stanley Cup Final, after Florida finished off the Bruins in Game 6 of their series on Friday night with a 2-1 victory.

This series, which will start at Madison Square Garden pits the Metropolitan Division victors against the Atlantic Division winners.

It is one Stanley Cup-winning coach, Peter Laviolette, against the coach he replaced to get his ring 20 years ago, Paul Maurice.

It is one legendary Russian goaltender, Sergei Bobrovsky, against another well on his way to all-time status, Igor Shesterkin.

The two sides have faced off just once before in the playoffs, with the Rangers beating Florida in five games in the 1997 Eastern Quarterfinals.

This, however, is a test befitting the Rangers as they look to defeat another franchise looking to call itself the new preeminent team in the Eastern Conference with the Lightning’s decline.

Chris Kreider had a third-period hat trick to help the New York Rangers erase a two-goal deficit and beat the Carolina Hurricanes 5-3 in Game 6 to advance to the Eastern Conference Final.

Kreider single-handedly erased the Hurricanes’ 3-1 lead entering the final period. The go-ahead score came when he got position on Jalen Chatfield at the top of the crease and tipped in Ryan Lindgren’s wraparound attempt to make it 4-3 with at the 15:41 mark.

That finally allowed the Presidents’ Trophy-winning Rangers to put away the Hurricanes, who had won two straight after falling into a 3-0 hole in the best-of-7 series. The Hurricanes appeared on the verge of forcing a Game 7 for a pressure-packed finale, but couldn’t contain Kreider and the Rangers’ surge in the final 14 minutes.

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid has a new deal.

So do team president Mark Donovan and general manager Brett Veach. The Chiefs announced that they have signed all three to contract extensions.

The Chiefs didn’t announce terms of the deals but said that “the leadership team of the Chiefs will remain in place for the long-term future.” 

The deal will also make Andy Reid the NFL’s highest-paid head coach. 

“Mark, Brett and Andy have achieved historic success together, and we are thrilled that they will continue in their roles for many years to come,” said Chiefs CEO Clark Hunt.
