New York Best City for Sports in World Right Now

[ZetaPsi808]

hell yeah son

get on our level

Giants... we only just won the superbowl.

Knicks... have the hottest player in the league right now in J Lin, and a lock to make playoffs. kid is only 23 years old too.

Rangers... first place in eastern conference. i dont even like hockey tho

Yankees... almost always in the playoffs every year and average a world series championship every 5 years

[NYSportsGuy210]

My goal has always been to own a house in Palo Alto and off of Hermosa Beach.

[MoneyLineDawg]

I'm Jets and Devils.....But Big Yankees fan and root for Nets/Knicks

[John Morrison]

philly owns Ny , 2 months and we'll be smacking the mets around

Knicks out in the 1st round
Rangers out in the 2nd round
Giants miss the playoffs next year
Yankees don't care about baseball but I guess they can choke again in the playoffs.

[Hurls]

its not hard to think you are the best in sports when you have 5 different teams in each sport to root for, and you all do flip flop when you need to

Actually I said it was a coin flip game.

The difference between me and new york fans is none of you were talking about the super bowl when they were 6-6, you were talking about firing coughlin while I was out buying Giants futures at 100-1.

Fact.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Z, the Asian girls must be flocking to Lin. I'll say that he will play well until a nice Asian girl gets a hold of him. Then his game will decline.

New York also has the largest percentage of marble-mouthed prikks per capita of any state in the union.

[griz]

Go fukk urself pal. Fukk ny

[frizzelli]

So from the past week I have learned from you Zeta that you are the best capper on the site and the city you root for has all the best sports franchises. Must be good to be Zeta.

[MoneyLineDawg]

Do NY haters root against all of NY or just certain teams?

[ZetaPsi808]

nah i live in a NYC suburb. the mets suck, they have poor management.

phillies suck too, all i've seen them do lately is choke in the playoffs.

how do you not score 1 run when your season is on the line in the first round of the playoffs??

Lin is way bigger than Giants and Yanks

No comparison

Jeter a nobody now

Manning nothing like Lin

[ZetaPsi808]

jjgold settle down. need to see how Lin does in playoffs first.

can he win all those rings like Eli and Jeter did?

[GamblerSpirit]

Do NY haters root against all of NY or just certain teams?

They all root against NY because NYC is the best city in America. Fact.

[EDDIE MONEY LINE]

Jets, Mets and Celtics...not joining in on the Linsanity...nor do I ever have any satisfaction. Except when I went to to the NBA finals when Celtics were in it.

[blanda]

As an old Eddie Money fan, I love your handle Eddie Money Line!

^ This. Notice how the OP doesn't mention the other teams in the New York area, the Jets, the Mets, the Nets, the Islanders and the Devils.

The Jets who were 8-8 and didn't make the playoffs, the Mets who have also been pretty average over the last, I don't know forever. the Nets who are 9-23 right now and the Islanders who are in last place in their division and the devils who are pretty average.

So 4 of the New York areas 9 professional teams are doing well this year(and some have done well historically), that doesn't seem like that great of odds.

If you actually were to look at it, Philadelphia is probably actually the best city in the four major American sports right now, Giants Super Bowl not withstanding. Yes, I realize the Eagles did not make the playoffs, but the other three teams are better than New York's teams and you also don't have to discount half the teams in and around the city to get there.

You could also make a decent argument for Detroit, but the Pistons are awful, the Lions are only getting better and have finally reached the playoffs, the Tigers are gonna be amazing next year and have been doing well as of late, and the Red Wings are the Yankees of hockey.

[jjgold]

He is bigger regardless

International angle is amazing


Spike Lee said Garden never so crazy and he has been around forever

[MUHerd37]

WOW the Knicks have 2 whole world championships!!! That franchise is so overrated

Devils are doing well. Jets were great couple seasons back.....great thing about NYC when one team struggles another team picks it up.

I know but they are still overrated. Long history but they always come up short. I have no idea how they didn't win one with Ewing.

[ZetaPsi808]

imagine how bad it must suck to be a sports fan in a city like seattle or washington, DC

[opie1988]

Dallas greatest sports city of this or any time.

Overall, Texas greatest state in Union or World.

Not debating here. This is fact.

Fukk all y'all.

That's my ultimate point, if you have multiple teams to choose from in every sport it should be an automatic disqualification or you should have to average them. You can't just pick and choose the four teams that are good in New York at the time and say, ah ha! this proves we are the greatest. What if someone from Detroit could pick 4 teams from Chicago and cherry pick them, or someone from California could pick which northern or southern California team they wanted. Four team, four sports, not nine teams, four sports.
