Vin Scelsa with Kris Kristofferson, Victoria Williams, Suzanne Vega, and Lou Reed at The Bottom Line in 1994. |
Just before ten o’clock on Saturday night, Vin Scelsa concluded nearly fifty years on New York’s airwaves by playing Lou Reed’s “Goodnight Ladies,” a suitably bittersweet song with the refrain “It’s a lonely Saturday night,” a sentiment that perfectly summed up how fans of Scelsa’s long-running free-form show, “Idiot’s... |
“Idiot’s Delight” was a wonderful anachronism: unscripted, idiosyncratic, and unashamedly out of step with contemporary listening habits. Scelsa, a Jersey boy whose aspirations to join the Marist brothers were derailed by rock and roll, believed in the sacramental powers of his vocation. He improvised his playlists, fo... |
It is possible to see Scelsa’s entire career as one extended flight from the authoritarian controls of programmed commercial radio. From his college days at WFMU (which remains defiantly free-form to this day), he moved on to WBAI before eventually becoming a d.j. at WABC-FM (later rebranded as WPLJ). In the early seve... |
Given his methods, it was no surprise that Scelsa balked at the restrictions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998—especially the cap on the number of consecutive songs he could play by a given artist. Initially he kept his show off the Internet rather than bowing to the terms of the D.M.C.A. Later, he found ... |
I came to Scelsa relatively late, during his second run on WNEW. At that time, I was living in a basement in Astoria with neither a television set nor an Internet connection—the perfect mark for a welcoming radio voice. I happened to be listening one night in 1998, just days after Linda McCartney died. Scelsa turned th... |
Though for many years he had a twice-a-week midday show on SiriusXM Satellite Radio, Scelsa was always, to my mind, a nighttime presence. His companionship was steady, ruminative, and intimate. Scelsa didn’t scream. Rarely, in fact, did he ever raise his voice. If, as Nick Paumgarten once wrote, sports radio’s “Mike an... |

The Saints will be home for Christmas. Actually, the Saints have been home all week and are going nowhere after Christmas either – outside of a playoff-meaningless trip to Tampa Bay Sunday to end this disastrous season. |
NEW ORLEANS – The Saints will be home for Christmas. |
Actually, the Saints have been home all week and are going nowhere after Christmas either – outside of a playoff-meaningless trip to Tampa Bay Sunday to end this disastrous season. |
And home for the Saints is a depressing place, especially at Christmas this year. |
New Orleans lost its fifth straight game Sunday in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome – once the homiest place for an NFL team this side of a Norman Rockwell holiday table or Lambeau – by 30-14 to Atlanta to drop out of the NFC playoff chase. The Saints (6-9) would have survived for another week had Cleveland beat Carolina, b... |
Santa Claus is not coming to the football part of this town, which is most of the place. |
The Saints had won 20 straight here under Coach Sean Payton from 2011 through Oct. 26 of this year (excluding four home losses in 2012 when Payton was suspended with coal for the season). The Saints had not previously lost five straight home games in the same season since 1980 when New Orleans finished 1-15. |
That 1980 team, amazingly, was also expected to win its division as the Saints were 8-8 in 1979, which at the time was considered a gift from St. Nick himself. Many thought that forecast was too good to be true, though. The Saints had never had a winning season at that point and would not get one for another eight Chri... |
This 6-9 unit, though, is by far the most disappointing Saints team in history based on realistic expectations. This was considered a Super Bowl team as it returned much from a 11-5 team in 2013 that won a road playoff game and added what were considered the right pieces here and there. |
“There is a standard, and this is something that we haven’t been up to this year,” Payton said. |
Nothing ever worked for long. The Saints’ longest winning streak was but two games one time. They have not matched that low since an 8-8 mark in 2008. |
Payton was forever re-reading the instructions along with the waiver wire and trying to assemble this freakin’ toy, but he couldn’t make it work. It kept falling apart. And he kept starting over. He thought he had it a couple times, but didn’t. |
A chance to finish 8-8 or 7-9 and host a playoff game was there. That would have been fun. There would have been a Christmas, although a little shallow, but still a Christmas. Instead, the Saints are left with a black and blew Christmas. Against the worst defense in the NFL that was allowing 410 yards a game coming in,... |
They got it together in the second half somewhat, and quarterback Drew Brees threw what would have been a crucial touchdown pass to tight end Jimmy Graham that would have cut Atlanta’s lead to 20-14 early in the fourth quarter. But the 6-foot-7, 265-pound Graham, who has played like a shell of himself all season, allow... |
Either way, he let loose of the ball. Graham may not have been himself for most of this season because of a shoulder injury, but on that play he indeed looked like a wide receiver void of tight end strength. |
Still, the Saints drove again to cut it to 20-14 on their next drive as Graham held on to a 4-yard touchdown. And thanks to a spirited defense, the inept offense got the ball again with that same deficit and 2:40 to play. But as he has too many times this season, Brees threw behind a receiver for a critical interceptio... |
And it was over. The Saints, who have played into January in the playoffs in four of the previous five seasons, are done before Christmas. |
At his postgame press conference, Payton looked like a kid with nothing under the tree on Christmas morning. |
“Tough loss, and there is that sting of finality,” he said. |

PINDARS CORNERS, N.Y., July 7 – Hillary Rodham Clinton launched her seemingly inevitable Senate campaign today by taking on the all-important carpetbagger issue, conceding New Yorkers have "legitimate questions" about her out-of-state candidacy but pledging to convince them she would be a "strong and effective advocate... |
At a wide-ranging news conference with retiring Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan (D-N.Y.) on his rolling 900-acre farm, the first lady sidestepped a media mob's questions about the Monica S. Lewinsky saga and her bonanza in the cattle futures market. She made only one, passing reference to her husband, who was visiting an ... |
But Hillary Clinton was certainly more accessible than usual, and she patiently answered several biting questions about carpetbagging. She laughed heartily when a reporter suggested there might be an element of chutzpah to her quest to represent a state in which she has never lived, and even conceded there probably is.... |
The opening day of Clinton's first, four-day "listening tour" of New York drew more attention than most presidential campaign kickoffs, with four busloads of about 300 journalists trailing the first lady at Moynihan's farm and an education "listening session" at the State University of New York at Oneonta. With a small... |
It was clear that for now, at least, Clinton's residency status is Topic A for her campaign, though she obviously hopes it will fade as an issue over the next 16 months. At every stop today, protesters greeted her with signs such as "Hillary Listen: Go Home!" and "A New Yorker For New York." Her already besieged campai... |
The answer, she said, is that New Yorkers have a deep interest in such issues as education, health care and job creation, and that she has been a "tireless advocate" on those issues for her entire adult life. |
"It's a fair question, and I fully understand people raising it," Clinton said. "I think I have some real work to do, to get out and listen and learn from the people of New York, and to demonstrate that what I'm for is as important if not more important than where I'm from. . . . Hopefully, I'll be able to make it clea... |
New York has sent out-of-state candidates to the Senate before, most memorably Robert F. Kennedy in 1964, but Clinton conceded that her immediate thought when she was first approached about running here was: "That seems like a very strange idea." She said she was "very humbled and more than a little surprised" to be th... |
Significantly, Clinton chose to begin her listening tour by listening to the man she hopes to succeed, whom she oddly described as "probably the wisest New Yorker that we can know of at this time." |
Moynihan has had a rocky relationship with the administration. He described the first lady's health care plan as "fantasy" in 1993, and later he became the first Democratic senator to call for an independent counsel to investigate Whitewater. But today, after meeting with her in the one-room schoolhouse where he has wr... |
"I hope she will go all the way," Moynihan said. "I mean to go all the way with her." |
After the event, they walked off arm-in-arm, Moynihan looking gaunt in his blue oxford shirt and bright white pants and Clinton looking vibrant in a navy pantsuit. It was a poignant moment that suggested a changing of the guard. |
"We've had an amazing senator for a long time," said Delaware County Democratic Chairman James Wood, who showed up wearing a Bill Clinton tie with a Mickey Mouse pin. "Now it's Hillary's turn." |
Giuliani, who is clearly thinking about his turn, was asked today by reporters about Clinton's venture. "It doesn't make sense for me to respond to someone exploring and listening and announcing that they're going to explain to us at some point in the future what they're for. When she explains what she's for and if I'm... |
Clinton plans to spend the next three days and most of the summer listening to New Yorkers in small groups -- "no major speeches, no major rallies," Wolfson said -- but today's remarkable media crush was a stark reminder that this will be no ordinary Senate race and that the first lady will have a tough time conducting... |
But far more typical was her comment after the event at the Moynihan farm, when 5-year-old Elizabeth Gallaer offered her some orange day lilies: "Elizabeth, would you mind doing what they call a photo op?" |
The other indication of Day One is that Clinton is going to face some questions she would rather not answer. One reporter asked whether she thinks the Lewinsky scandal will make her a more sympathetic candidate. She merely replied that New Yorkers will make their own judgments. Another reporter asked about the $99,000 ... |
Overall, Clinton seemed energized by the race, but she also seemed to recognize the absurdity of this unprecedented spectacle: "I'm really excited about taking these long, beautiful summer days at a leisurely pace -- you know, with a few hundred of you -- to travel from place to place and meet people." |
Tonight, the newly declared Yankees fan visited the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown. Thursday, she will get to meet people in Cooperstown and Utica. Friday, she will travel to Rome, Syracuse and Albany. Her aides hope New Yorkers will get used to thinking of her as one of them, even if she did grow up... |
That might take some time, though. Before Clinton's lunch at Brooks Bar-B-Q in Oneonta, there was a screaming match in the restaurant lobby. "Go home, Hillary!" one man shouted. |
"You go home!" another patron responded. |
"I live here," the man replied. "I'm not the one running for Senate." |
