Good Monday afternoon in New York City, where we're honoring Big Papi. (Yes, really.)

Here's what else is happening:

• The MTA is putting Ice Spice on a limited edition MetroCard.
• Bushwick's industrial pockets have enabled nightclubs to thrive because there aren't neighbors next door who complain about the noise. But if Bushwick gets rezoned for (much needed) new housing, which neighborhoods will be left for clubs to take over?
• Congressmembers who support Donald Trump and potentially want to be his running mate have been coming to his criminal trial in Manhattan.
• George Clooney will make his Broadway debut next year playing celebrated broadcast journalist Edward R. Murrow in the stage adaptation of Clooney's 2005 film "Good Night, and Good Luck."
• Sean Hannity fled to Florida and is selling his Long Island house for $13.75 million.

• Therapy is over.
• GameStop (GME) is back.
