Mastering the Madness: How to Follow Every NYC Team During Overlapping Seasons
By Fixtured
Knicks, Rangers, NYCFC, Islanders, Jets, Nets, Giants—It’s All Happening at Once
New York sports fans face a dense fall schedule—Jets and Giants in the NFL, Knicks and Nets in the NBA, Rangers, Islanders, and Devils in the NHL—overlapping with MLB playoffs and MLS postseason games. The volume of events across multiple leagues creates a challenge in following live action. This article details the seasonal overlap, the difficulties of keeping up, and a tool to streamline the process in 2025.
Seasonal Overlap
Summer focuses on MLB baseball, but fall expands the calendar. NFL games feature the Jets and Giants weekly, occurring in the afternoon or evening. The NBA’s Knicks and Nets play frequently in the evening throughout their 82-game season. The NHL’s Rangers, Islanders, and Devils rotate games in the evening or night. MLB playoffs extend into the afternoon and evening, while MLS playoffs add afternoon or evening soccer matchups. Last week, five games spanned four leagues in a single evening, illustrating the density of the schedule.
Challenges for Fans
The overlapping seasons complicate viewing. Missing a Jets performance impacts Monday discussions. Skipping a Knicks game means relying on delayed updates online. Choosing a live event requires identifying available broadcasts, a task that can overwhelm casual fans. Without a structured approach, significant moments—like a Giants score or a Nets lead—pass unnoticed. The variety of games demands planning to prioritize effectively.
Tracking Difficulties
Fans encounter logistical issues. Reminders fail if game times shift, channels confuse when misidentified, and navigating multiple apps delays viewing. One might miss a Yankees playoff result or a Devils goal while switching sources. Group chats highlight key plays after the fact, underscoring the need for a reliable method to stay informed.

Users select teams—Giants, Knicks, Rangers, or others—and access a full list of games with times and channels adjusted to local settings.

For casual fans, the process remains straightforward: choose a team and review the lineup. It eliminates the need for cross-referencing apps or guessing broadcast details.
