I'm watching the NBA Countdown show and a New Yorker said The Yankees can win all the world series' they want but everyone wants the Knicks back in the Finals.

Is this true New Yorkers? :ld:

Probably said it more because the Knicks are on the longest title drought in New York well besides the Jets but who really cares about the Jets.

Yankees run the city among white folks and latinos, most Black folks don't give two shyts about baseball.

The yankees are the toast of the town. Basketball is the sport everyone loves to play. Football will always be an enjoyable past time

The only reason the NY Giants aren't super duper mega huge is because the North east just doesn't love to play the game.

Pro baseball runs nyc hot stove baseball is probably the 2nd bigges sport on the nyc radio waves

Yankees are by far the most popular team

After the Giants upset the Pats in 08 two days later it was forgotten and all you heard on radio was Johan Santana to the Mets talk

I say the Giants. Living in Jersey, they have the most gear I've seen worn by anyone...gear that looks over 20 years old.

The real answer is that we're some front running motherfukkers.

However, because the Yankees have the history and tradition of winning, we put them on a pedestal to the point where it's about as expected as the sun coming up in the day and setting at night.

However, the city sport is basketball. It's played all year round, and the Knicks up until now never had to split the fanbase. If they win, the city will explode. If the Jets or Mets win, the group of Jets and Mets fans that are here will go bezerk.

If the Islanders or even the Nets, it will be muted compared to others.
