I guess it’s understandable that people in Massachusetts might root for the Patriots, but I’m baffled by folks in NY and NJ who have perfectly good teams to root for, but nevertheless are obsessed by the Patriots and/or Red Sox. I was so glad to see the Jets clean their clock.
Same reason people in New England root for the NY teams....
relocation, you grew up with the team as your parents’ favorite, you sister is one of Cromartie’s baby mommas or your GF appeared in a Rex Ryan foot fetish movie.
