Rocky Point Flower Shop Petal It Forward

BY KYLE BARR KYLE@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

On a busy Wednesday morning, as people moved in between the parking lot and Planet Fitness along Route 25A in Rocky Point, two young women held fistfuls of flowers, arms outstretched. As part of the trade association Society of American Florists’ Petal It Forward campaign, Rocky Point flower shop Flowers on Broadway looked to make people’s early day commutes a little more colorful. Taylor Wagner and Li Guo, who both work for Flowers on Broadway, handed out bouquets to those passing by. Some looked confused at them as they presented the flowers, others questioned if the pair wanted anything for the flower arrangements. They were free, they said, and would get two so they could pass one onto the next person they see. One man offered a bouquet said, “I don’t do flowers,” while others, like Carmen Pettus, the owner of SunShine Barre Studio in Rocky Point, said the flowers “made my day.”

Wagner, a junior designer at the flower shop, said she’s often surprised how many people seem estranged by the thought of free flowers. “We went to the Blue Grass concert last weekend, and we were handing out flowers, and most of the guys said, ‘No, I don’t want flowers,’ while a lot of the women said, ‘Oh yes, flowers,’ she said, laughing to herself. “It’s amazing, it’s just a bunch of daisies guys.” Over the course of the day, the duo stopped at three places, the RP Planet Fitness, outside the Pompei Pizza in Rocky Point and by Branchineli’s Pizzaria in Miller Place. By the end of the day, they had given out 300 bouquets to around 150 people. Stephanie Navas, the owner of Flowers on Broadway, learned about the yearly event being put on by the flower society the past several years. “We wanted to give back to the community that’s supported us all these years with a small act to brighten their day,” Navas said. “Through the positive effect of flowers, we hope to make someone’s day special, and provide a muchneeded moment of calm amidst the hectic pace of life.”

Chamber Hosts First Annual Fall Festival BY GREG CATALANO DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

This past weekend, Rocky Point erupted in a celebration of fall. On Saturday, Oct. 19, the Rocky Point Sound Beach Chamber of Commerce hosted its first Blues and Brews event, featuring multiple local bands, while on Sunday, Oct. 20, the fall festival in Rocky Point attracted both young and old in what was basically an early Halloween preview. Starting with a costume parade, throughout

the day there were games for kids, a big display of fire apparatus from the Rocky Point Fire Department, a variety of delicious foods, a bounce house for the kids, face paintings, arts and crafts and lots of fantastic costumes on display. Rocky Point Sound Beach Chamber of Commerce presided over the first year of the event, with last year’s being canceled due to weather. Gary Pollakusky, the chamber president, spoke about the chamber’s plans to greatly improve the downtown Rocky Point area in the next year.

Police

Cops Arrest Woman in Fatal Wading River Car Crash Police arrested the driver allegedly involved in a fatal motor vehicle crash in Wading River Oct. 14 that killed a 90-year-old woman; the driver allegedly provided a false name to officers. Following an investigation, Suffolk County detectives determined that Tara Demauro was the driver of the Jeep that struck a Nissan on Route 25A. Following the crash, Demauro provided officers with the name of her relative, Meghan Cunningham of Rocky Point, who was not involved.

Demauro, 48, of Rocky Point, was charged with criminal impersonation second degree, making a punishable false written statement and driving with a suspended license. She was released on a desk appearance ticket and is due to appear at the 1st District Court in Central Islip in December. No attorney information for Demauro was available as of press time.

Police: Man Robs Sound Beach Gas Station at Gunpoint Police said a small Sound Beach gas station was robbed at gunpoint Saturday, Oct. 19. According to police, a man allegedly approached the attendant at CND Automotive on Echo Avenue, displayed a silver handgun and demanded money at around 8:45 p.m. The attendant, a 50-year-old man, complied and gave his own wallet and cash from the register to the suspect. The suspect then fled the scene on foot southbound on Blue Point Road. The attendant sustained a minor injury and declined medical

treatment at the scene. The suspect was described as black, approximately 5 feet 9 inches tall with a medium build, wearing all black clothing, tan sneakers, black gloves and a black mask partially covering his face. He was carrying a black backpack with blue trim. Detectives are asking anyone with information on the robbery to contact the 7th Squad at 631-852-8752 or Crime Stoppers at 800-220TIPS.

Stony Brook Children’s Hospital Set to Open in November BY RITA J. EGAN RITA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM It’s apparent, when stepping into the main lobby of the new Stony Brook Children’s Hospital, slated to open for patient care Nov. 17, that young patients will come first. The downstairs lobby is decorated in soothing tones with a fun nautical theme. One wall features a live feed of fish swimming at the Long Island Aquarium in Riverhead. Stony Brook Medicine held a ribbon cutting at the site with staff and elected officials in attendance Oct. 17. The 71,500-square-foot, 114-bed hospital will be the only children’s hospital, according to Stony Brook Medicine, with single-patient rooms on Long Island. “We’re really trying to get everything into a child-friendly environment, and this is sort of like the icing on the cake to have our building and to get the pediatric inpatients out from the 11th floor of what is predominantly an adult hospital into this proper space that was designed for kids and their families,” said Dr. Margaret McGovern, professor of pediatrics and physician in chief at Stony Brook Children’s Hospital, during a tour and interview two days before the ribbon cutting. With a full-service health care program that includes a Level 1 pediatric trauma center, neonatal intensive care unit and more, McGovern said Stony Brook Medicine treats an array of pediatric conditions. “In general, the acuity is high,” she said. “These are kids who really need to be in the hospital. It’s everything from an infection to a broken bone.” McGovern said the single-bed rooms will provide infection control, comfort, privacy and security. The children’s hospital will be located on floors 4 through 7 in the new Medical and Research Translation Building, also known as MART, which combined with using wristbands with devices, will provide extra security for children. Each patient’s room will have a pull-out sofa for parents to sleep in, refrigerator, safe and workspaces for families and hospital staff. Each room also has a private bathroom with a shower that is wheelchair accessible. Dr. Carolyn Milana, interim chair in the Department of Pediatrics, said that the singlepatient rooms will allow medical staff to easily have private conversations with families, as the current rooms have two patients each and can only be divided with a curtain. She said at times medical teams have to step out of a room to have a conversation with parents. “This will allow the whole team to come in and really have a conversation with the family in private, and it’s quieter,” Milana said. The children will also have a remote to control the lighting over artwork hung on the

walls, and medical teams will be able to pull up records and patient care educational materials right up on the room’s television screen. Maureen Cole, associate director of nursing at the children’s hospital, said that the rooms were designed after receiving feedback from families on an advisory council. “They were very instrumental in some of the additions that we have made, and then the children gave a lot of feedback, too, because we have a youth advisory council who have been touring the building,” she said. Cole said children even offered advice on how they should be spoken to and who should be in the room when conversations occur about their care. In addition to the private rooms, McGovern said the hospital was designed for respite with play spaces and rooms, and even a teen lounge. The building will also have an adolescent unit on a separate floor from younger children and a classroom with Wi-Fi. Ronald McDonald House of Long Island, a New Hyde Park nonprofit that provides support to improve the health of children, has a family room in the hospital so parents can sit and relax, and even do work. A washer, dryer and shower across from the room are also available to families. The building includes an elevator for patients being transported for procedures that is separate from visitors. The special procedure unit will provide services such as sedated MRIs, pediatric endoscopies and bone marrow

procedures for both inpatients and outpatients. McGovern said nearly 10 years ago Stony Brook Medicine declared itself a children’s hospital because they recognized the need to expand children’s health care programs in Suffolk County. “There are about 450,000 kids in Suffolk County,” she said. “That is absolutely a population that can support a children’s hospital. So, we’ve been building the number of pediatric providers who are on our full-time faculty — now there’s almost 180 of them, 30 different pediatric specialties.” McGovern said there are also more than 250 nurses on staff and child life services employees and social workers. “Everyone likes to work in a place that has been thoughtfully designed to help them do their best work,” McGovern said. “I think that has resonated, also, with our staff and keeping good staff. We’re recruiting great physicians here. Pediatricians like to work at children’s hospitals because it says a lot about the commitment of the organization to children’s health to have a children’s hospital. I think that has helped us be successful recruiting doctors here from the best training programs in the country to come and join us to help us take care of the kids in Suffolk County.” According to Stony Brook Medicine officials, the cost of the construction was $73 million and was part of Stony Brook Medicine’s $450 million expansion, which includes a 10-story hospital pavilion and new

cancer center. To help with the cost, state Sens. Ken LaValle (R-Port Jefferson) and John Flanagan (R-East Northport) secured $50 million from the state. Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) and the State University of New York, under the leadership of former Chancellor Nancy Zimpher, helped to secure more funds through a $35 million NYSUNY 2020 Challenge Grant. More contributions came from donors with $25 million from 3,584 contributors to the Children’s Hospital Building Fund, which was supported with matching gifts of $10 million from an anonymous donor and $2.5 million from the Knapp Swezey Children’s Challenge. An additional $50 million was from a historic $150 million gift to Stony Brook University from Jim and Marilyn Simons. On Oct. 17, Delaney Unger, 13, from Selden was on hand for the ribbon cutting. An osteosarcoma survivor, who received a unique amputation called rotationplasty in spring 2017, was a patient at Stony Brook Children’s. “I must say, I am a little jealous of the new beautiful Stony Brook Children’s Hospital,” Delaney said. “I can attest that not only will the children who stay here get the best possible care, but they will also do so in a fantastic new facility designed with them in mind.” Before the official opening, the hospital invites the local community to see the new building Nov. 2 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Preregistration is preferred at www. stonybrookchildrens.org/openhouse.

Perspective

Chris Pendergast Reflects on ALS Diagnosis Decades Later

On a cold rainy Columbus Day, my life forever changed. Nothing would be the same. The life I knew ended. My wife, children and I embarked on a new road, one less traveled by. That has made all the difference. During the Columbus Day weekend of 1993, I was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease. Most people now know it is an incurable and uniformly fatal disease. Average life expectancy still hovers near the two or three-year mark. Lucky ones can live longer. A rare few survive longer than 10 years. Remarkably, l am entering my 27th year with my unwanted road companion. I am here today due in large part to my loving wife, Christine, and our wonderful kids, Melissa and Buddy. They keep me well cared for and motivated. They have, literally, gone the extra mile for me. My grandson Patrick is the most effective medicine I take. My son-in-law Rich and step-grandson Ryan round out my terrific family. I am blessed with caring, competent and compassionate caregivers, Tiana, Amanda, Marquita and Lena. They are in the trenches every day and night battling right beside and fighting the good fight with me. I am fortunate to have an outstanding mental health therapist, Dr. Melnekoff. He has kept me balanced, focused and headed in the right direction. My life is extended through the phenomenal care provided Chris Pendergast celebrated his 70th birthday at 89 North Music Venue in Patchogue in April by my incredible respiratory therapist, Monty Rivera from with family and friends.

My ALS Ride for Life charity has and optimism that everyone one in my life will collectively help countless volunteers led by staffers Maureen and Marilyn. Because me triumph. of all their collective work, we have raised more than $8.5 million. To paraphrase Gehrig’s farewell speech at Yankee Stadium, Along the road with ALS, I witnessed amazing things and met as he did, I also say, “Look at these grand people. Which of you incredible people. I was able to participate in wonderful experiences wouldn’t consider it the highlight of his life just to associate with which otherwise would not have happened. them for even one day? Sure, I’m lucky. Today I consider myself Do I wish I never got ALS? Honestly, I am not sure. I am certain the luckiest man on the face of this earth.” that at some point in almost everyone’s life, a fatal disease will arise.

Sports Mustangs Blanked by Tornadoes 5-0 BY BILL LANDON DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM It was all Harborfields in a Division II road game against Mount Sinai where the Tornadoes blew through the Mustangs, 5-0, Oct. 22. The juniors led the way for Harborfields when Katie Davis scored twice along with Kathryn Morgan and Taylor Sammis who both stretched the net. Ruby Sember, the freshman, also put one through to round out the scoring for the Tornadoes with one game remaining before postseason play. Harborfields senior keeper Zoe Krief had three saves in net and teammate Kristina Hansen a freshman stopped two. Hailey Covington had eight saves for the Mustangs and teammate Alaina Riley stopped four.

Mount Sinai concludes their regular season with a senior night home game against West Babylon Oct. 24 in a must-win game for any hopes of postseason play. Game time is 6 p.m. Harborfields also concludes their regular season needing a win on the road against Bayport-Blue Point Oct. 24, with a 4:30 p.m. start. Photos clockwise from top right: Mount Sinai Grace D’Angio collides with Harborfields goalie; Harborfields senior Peyton Buckholtz heads the corner kick but Mustangs keeper Covington makes the save; Mount Sinai sophomore Katie Marrs turns upfield; Freshman Maddy DaSilva redirects for the Mustangs; Marrs settles the ball for the Mustangs; and Mount Sinai junior Jessica Schmitt powers upfield.

County residents got a glimpse of the county’s budget process as the operating budget working group held its first public meeting Oct. 17 when the 2019-20 recommended operating budget was discussed. The county operating budget funds employee payroll costs, county departments and a variety of other expenditures. The status of the budget has been in the spotlight since the New York State comptroller, Tom DiNapoli (D), said Suffolk was under “significant fiscal stress” — with Nassau — for the second year in a row. In 2018, Suffolk had an operating deficit of about $26.5 million and a general fund balance deficit of $285 million. The topic has been an important issue in the county executive race. The current incumbent, Steve Bellone (D), has stated that during his tenure he has worked to bring the county spending and finances back in check. John Kennedy Jr., the county comptroller and Republican challenger for executive, has stated that the county is in a “fiscal crisis.” Here is what legislators discussed at the meeting. The proposed operating budget for 2019-20 will be $3.2 billion, an increase from last year’s $3.1 billion budget. The recommended budget would look to increase property taxes by $14.66 million (2.14 percent), according to the report. The increase is comprised of a rise in police district property taxes of $16.56 million (2.8 percent). The police district will face an $11.3 million deficit by the end of 2019. It is the fourth year in a row that the district will have a deficit. Overtime for the police department in 2019 is estimated at $30.9 million. In addition, the county’s general fund, despite seeing an increase of $318 million in revenue from 2015 to 2019, is projected to experience its fifth consecutive deficit in 2019. Combined with the police district, the county may face an operating deficit of some $20 million. Sales tax revenue is projected to increase an additional $48.5 million from 2019-20 or about 4.5 percent. Another area of concern is the county payroll. It has increased by $315 million in the last seven years, despite the workforce being reduced by 1,250 positions. From the start of 2019 through Sept. 8, the number of active county employees on the payroll declined by approximately 150, according to the report. The recommended expenditures for employee health care in 2020 is projected to increase by approximately by $22.2 million. The Budget Review Office also raised concerns in the report that property taxes in the Southwest Sewer District, which covers parts of Babylon and Islip, would decrease by $2.14 million. This could lead to less funds available for sewer projects and potentially increase borrowing. In terms of other revenue, the county is projected to see an increase in funds from video lottery terminals at Jake’s 58 Casino Hotel in Islandia. The revenue brought in will increase to $25 million in 2020 compared to $2.9 million in 2018 and $3.3 million in 2019. For homeowners, the proposed county property tax will yield an estimated average tax bill of $1,207, an increase of $25. Average taxes per homeowners will increase by $32 in five western towns, including Brookhaven, Smithtown and Huntington, and decrease by $2 in the county’s five eastern towns.

Editorial

Letters to the Editor

The House representative for New York’s 1st Congressional District, a Republican, has come out against the U.S. president on foreign policy. We here at TBR News Media think it’s time for more of us to look at such national decisions in a bipartisan way. On Oct. 13, President Donald Trump (R) stunned the world and ordered the abrupt removal of American troops out of Kurdish territory in Northern Syria along the Turkish border. The unusual policy shift has been characterized by foreign policy experts and representatives from both the Republican and Democratic parties as a gravely flawed decision that harms U.S. national security interests. Trump’s military decision should mark a turning point. The issues of today should no longer pivot on party affiliation. Whether you are a Republican or a Democrat, the matter affects the whole of the U.S. national security and the whole fabric of America. U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R) represents Suffolk County residents in New York’s 1st Congressional District. He sits on the House Foreign Affairs and Financial Services committees. We’ve asked him to tell us when he learned about Trump’s decision to remove troops from the Turkish border, a question he did not answer. However, he did provide his insights into the situation. “The Kurds have fought, bled and died fighting alongside the U.S.,” Zeldin said. “They have been warriors and brothers in battle along the way The president is right to want to end endless war, but the Turks wiping out the Kurds will absolutely not be an acceptable outcome after all of that.” Instead of responding to questions, Zeldin’s office wanted us to know that the congressman, who has tended to support the president, signed a joint piece of legislation that flatly denounces Trump’s decision, namely H.J. Res. 77 (116th Congress). The resolution stated, among other things: “An abrupt withdrawal of United States military personnel from certain parts of Northeast Syria is beneficial to adversaries of the United States government, including Syria, Iran and Russia.” The damage is done, and both experts and federal representatives said the U.S. strategic presence in the region has been severely neutered. Russian President Vladamir Putin’s troops now occupy the region. Jihadists have broken from prisons, reversing many of the West’s original hard-fought gains against ISIS and terrorism. The House Foreign Affairs Committee chairman called the situation “just devastating.” These are elected officials we are talking about. If a local official, such in the case of former Nassau County Executive Ed Mangano, or former Suffolk County Police Chief James Burke, abused the power of their office, then one should want them investigated. That should be no different for a sitting president, Republican or Democrat. No elected official is “your guy.” Even if you vote for a person, you should never blindly accept every decision they make. As the impeachment proceedings move forward and as more details are made public, scrutinize the behavior, comments and motives of the president with keen concern. Distinguish between propaganda and truth. It’s time to join hands and unite with your neighbors or your relatives, whatever party they belong to.

Regarding Mr. Richard Esopa’s letter of Sept. 19, “God help America,” let me say that I for one do wholeheartedly agree with him. Let me bring to your attention a few other items which I believe need to be stated with further zeal. When was the last time we had an open dialogue with North Korea? When did the stock market reach the heights it is at now? When was unemployment at such low levels? When was our military as powerful as it currently is?

I could go on and on, but the fact still remains that this president continues to do an exceptional job despite the negative support he receives from the radical left. He takes the attitude of letting other countries around the world take care of their own. They all come to the “land of plenty” and announce, “Here we are, take care of us!” Nonsense, that’s not the way our parents and grandparents played the game. By abiding by the tenets of the

Monroe Doctrine (1823), it would allow those monies to be spent on health care, infrastructure and last but not least, taking adequate care of our military, which comes home in pieces or pays the ultimate sacrifice. These people who we elect have to be held accountable for all the before mentioned. Some may ask why? I say, why not! Ronald Reinisch Mount Sinai

Vote for Kennedy for County Executive I have been privileged as a Hauppauge community leader to work with John M. Kennedy Jr. (R) for the past 15 years when he was a Suffolk County legislator, then Suffolk County minority leader and now Suffolk County comptroller on a multitude of community issues to make the county a better place to live and work. Kennedy is a man of leadership, integrity, experience, dedication and heart for the people, serving Suffolk County for over 25 years, including as the official examiner of the title for the Suffolk County clerk’s office. In addition to his years of public service, Kennedy is a man of knowledge with his bachelor’s from Stony Brook University, master’s in business administration from Adelphi University and juris doctor from St. John’s University School of Law. Kennedy works diligently and consistently throughout Suffolk County, daily fighting for the people of Suffolk County, if it is against LIPA to pay its fair share of taxes and pass the tax savings down to the local municipalities and personal taxpayers, saving taxpayers rate reductions from public utility companies or recovering the appropriate hotel/motel

tax, again taking the burden away from personal taxpayers. Kennedy has the good reputation of being the county’s watchdog, unlike our existing Suffolk County executive. Steve Bellone (D) says that taxes have not increased, he is clearly mistaken. He has raised taxes every year since he has been in office: Created alarm fees, additional car registration fees, park fees, mortgage fees, cremation fees, tax map fees and red-light camera fees. He has also used $171.3 million from the sewer fund to make payroll, borrowed $385 million from the pension fund and has had millions of dollars in lawsuits for mismanagement. Per New York State comptroller, Thomas DiNapoli (D), Suffolk County has the most severe significant financial stress two years in a row with over $883 million in debt over the past decade, and there has been a spiral of bond rating downgrades. And then Bellone adds a Protect the Taxpayer ballot line for this election? On the other hand, Kennedy fights for the people of Suffolk County by finding fraud and collecting unpaid sales taxes, property taxes and hotel/motel taxes to

add to the bottom line and truly protects the taxpayer. I would also like to mention the Bellone campaign accusations: 1. Bellone indicates that Kennedy has a county car. Yes, the car is a 2007 Ford Explorer with 120,000 miles mostly used to commute back and forth from Hauppauge to Riverhead. 2. Bellone indicates that Kennedy’s wife, Leslie Kennedy (R-Nesconset), has a patronage job. She is the Suffolk County legislator for the 12th District voted in office by her constituents. 3. Bellone indicates that Kennedy has received salary raises. Cost of living adjustments are determined by Suffolk County government, not Kennedy. However, Bellone has hired a good number of senior-level commissioners at taxpayer expense. John M. Kennedy Jr. is a man of leadership, results and for the people of Suffolk County and his record proves it. Please vote for John Kennedy for our next Suffolk County executive. Paul Borowski Hauppauge

It’s very surprising that an extremely troubling report from New York State Comptroller Tom DiNapoli regarding Suffolk County’s frightening fiscal state, released at the beginning of this month, has gotten scant local attention. A headline announcing we’ve been designated the “most fiscally stressed county in the state,” two years running might have gotten residents’ attention. They may have been tempted to ask how Suffolk is in “significant fiscal stress” when they’ve been paying so much of

their hard-earned money in taxes and fees? DiNapoli flunked us after studying our year-end-balance, cash on hand, shortterm borrowing, fixed costs, patterns of operating deficits and factors such as poverty and unemployment. We’ve also been hit with seven bond downgrades in the last seven years. Think of that as having dramatically supplemented a big spender’s income, only to learn their FICO score went from a 750 to below 500. What’s crucial to note, given the

current partisan political climate, Democrat DiNapoli’s straight-forward, by-the-numbers exposure of Suffolk County’s money woes was not influenced by his party affiliation. DiNapoli gave an honest accounting of a county governed by a majority of Democratic legislators, led by Democrat Steve Bellone, and let the chips fall where they may. A word of “thanks” to Comptroller DiNapoli. Jim Soviero East Setauket

Caring for America’s Heroes BY THOMAS CASSIDY

N

Opinion

Exempting the state veterans nursing homes from budget cuts would be a meaningful way for New Yorkers to say ‘thank you for your service.’ When the LISVH first opened, he again served his fellow veterans for many years as a volunteer. He visited the nursing home almost every day because it was his way of supporting his “band of brothers and sisters.” When my Dad fractured his hip at age 83, many doctors at the hospital thought he would never walk again. It took a year of rehabilitation with the skilled and compassionate staff at the veterans home, but my Dad walked out of the nursing home and

spent the last year of his life with my mother in their own home. In the 74 years since the end of World War II, military men and women have been on the front line of battles in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan and many other locations around the world. Sadly, the physical, emotional and psychological wounds never heal for many of the warriors who fulfill their oath to protect America. I learned that firsthand more than 20 years ago when my father had emergency surgery for a ruptured appendix. I visited him the morning after his operation. He was laying his bed shivering and shaking uncontrollably. He whispered he had the worst nightmare ever. He was back in a foxhole in the Philippines, guns were blasting and bombs were dropping all around him. Then he looked at his fellow combat veteran in the bed next to him and said, “Sal got me through it. Thank God he was here for me.” Today we might say that my father had post-traumatic stress disorder or a flashback. But whatever you call it, his fellow veteran pulled him through just like the veterans do for

Photo from Tom Cassidy

ew York State government should not cut funding for America’s heroes residing at the Long Island State Veterans Home at Stony Brook University. The veterans home has, and does, provide first-class health services for veterans and their spouses who receive rehabilitation and long-term care in their time of need. Providing topnotch nursing home care for our veterans, many of whom put their own lives on the line to keep us safe, is a patriotic action that truly expresses “thank you for your service.” At the age of 17 my father, Hugh “Joe” Cassidy, enlisted in the United States Coast Guard to serve his country during World War II. Before he reached his 19th birthday he participated in five shore invasions with the Marines and Army as frogman. He was frequently shot at while he stood on coral reefs in the Philippine Islands acting as a human buoy to help keep the landing boats from crashing into reefs and sinking. He was almost thrown overboard when his ship, the

USS Cavalier, was torpedoed in the still of a Pacific Ocean night. But my Dad always said he was not a hero. His heroes were all the soldiers and sailors who put their lives in harm’s way, were wounded or died in battle.

Thomas Cassidy with his father Hugh

each other every day at the Long Island State Veterans Home. New York State is facing a budget crunch, that much is true. But exempting the state veterans’ nursing homes from the budget cuts would be a meaningful way for New Yorkers to say “thank you for your service.”

ooking back at the six-game American League Championship Series, it’s clear that the Houston Astros were the better team. Tough as it is to write that when my fan allegiance is with the Yankees, the Astros had more clutch hitting, better defense, and better starting and relief pitching. Yes, the two teams were fairly evenly matched when it came to runs scored. The Yankees covered up many of their sins — and D. None deficiencies — with a few timely of the above long balls and some BY DANIEL DUNAIEF standout pitching performances from Masahiro Tanaka and James Paxton.

While hindsight is always perfect, because we know who failed and who succeeded, I want to ask an obvious question. Why was our designated hitter doing little more than striking out? It’s clear that our enigmatic catcher Gary Sánchez, who has a talent for crushing balls deep into the night, seems to disappear at big moments. And, while we’re playing the hindsight game, it seems obvious that closer Aroldis Chapman, who has lost a few miles per hour on his fastball and now relies on an effective slider, should have avoided pitching to José Altuve with two outs, a runner on first and a defensive replacement on deck for Houston. So, one at a time. Edwin Encarnación was a compelling pickup from Seattle Mariners during the season, offering a few moments of ball-bashing power. Perhaps because of injury, or maybe because he was trying to hit a defining titanic home run, he couldn’t do much of anything in the postseason. The same seems true for the multimillion dollar Giancarlo Stanton.

Given that both can hit huge home runs and are capable of changing the complexion of a low-scoring game, I understand the urge to put them in, but, at some point, if they are not getting it done, why not go with other options? Sure, Cameron Maybin doesn’t hit as many home runs and isn’t as physically imposing. If manager Aaron Boone had inserted him into the lineup, would he have taken away the possibility of using Maybin as a late-inning defensive replacement? That’s possible. OK, then, how about using Austin Romine as the designated hitter? Yes, I understand that Boone might also have been saving him to give Sánchez a break in a game where defense takes precedence. If either of them had become an unconventional designated hitter, would fans be screaming about the panic move if they had failed? Yes, of course, they would. But at least Boone would have been trying something — anything — when he seemed wedded to a script that wasn’t working in a short series.

The same thing holds true for Adam Ottavino. The guy was a great pitcher during the season, but he ran into the postseason twilight zone. It happens. Sit him down and don’t let him affect the outcome of games. As for Sánchez, he may have hit batting practice pitches into the next county, but that’s irrelevant. He wasn’t getting it done at or behind the plate. Maybe even a single day off would have changed his approach and would have helped. In a short series, managers can’t wait to see if something that’s not working turns around. The team — and its desperate fans — don’t have the luxury of that kind of time. The question for next year isn’t whether the Yankees will get a starting pitcher who can throw more innings than the present incumbents, or whether Stanton will make a meaningful postseason contribution. The question is: Will Boone buy into the idea of a team game and give other players a chance? After all, the last time the Yankees won the World Series was a decade ago, in 2009.
