It's cute how the NY media always makes it seem like the NY sports fan is so engaged and knowledgeable. The truth is that most people from Queens, Staten Island, and Long Island are inbred redneck twits. The only difference between them and people from eastern Maryland or Alabama is that the New Yorkers have less charming accents. In case you can't make it to the stadium to see the fans punch women in the face or chant for them to show their t*ts, you can always tune into WFAN and listen to a bunch of morons from New Jersey and Long Island give their opinions on how the Jets should just DURR trade Santonio Holmes for Megatron or call for the head of Rex Ryan who is the best coach we've had since Bill Parcells.
And fukk the New York media. Whenever a new player comes into town, the biggest question is "How will they deal with the intense scrutiny of the media?". When they interview players and get canned responses, they complain that they're too buttoned up. If the player gives an honest answer, the media goes into a goddamn feeding frenzy. Half the "writers" go off about how the player isn't a "team" player and the other half engage in a maddeningly meta conversation about how his answer is going to be a distraction because the media is constantly going to be asking about it. You're the fukking media. If you think the question is going to be a distraction, don't ask the fukking question. All you have to do is tell me why my team blows.
