Panico Packs Powerful Punch In Fight Against Signs Plastered Across Brookhaven


A 40-yard dumpster full of lawn signs | Brookhaven Supervisor Dan Panico

You can’t miss them while driving in and around the South Shore: lawn signs plastered all over the community on light poles and right of ways, pushing everything from power washing to bathtub reglazing to cars for sale.

They’re not only an eyesore, but they’re also placed around town illegally.

In an effort to maintain clean communities, Brookhaven Supervisor Dan Panico led the charge along with local leaders to trash the illegally placed signs and spruce up the area.

Supervisor Panico was joined by Highway Superintendent Dan Losquadro, Councilman Neil A Manzella, Councilwoman Karen Dunne Kesnig, Councilman Neil Foley, and Councilmember Jonathan Kornreich.

The community wide cleanup was a huge success, with public officials nearly filling a 40-yard dumpster.

Don't Expect Bregman to Pay Off

This week, one of the bigger names in the free agency cycle signed with the Chicago Cubs, and fantasy managers everywhere sighed. Usually, anyone heading to Wrigley Field is viewed as a positive, but for Alex Bregman, more information has emerged suggesting this move could spell trouble for his fantasy outlook. Bregman is a right-handed pull hitter who previously played in two of the more favorable home parks for that profile in Houston and Boston. Both parks feature short left-field dimensions that reward pulled fly balls and help inflate power numbers.

Futures Bettors Will Be Smiling

The College Football Championship is set, and it pits two of the more unlikely teams against each other. Indiana may have the largest living alumni base in the country, with more than 800,000 graduates, but few expected the Hoosiers to reach this stage. They feature zero five-star recruits and have instead relied on depth, discipline, and consistency while dominating all season long.
