Who's Got It Worse: Giants or Jets Fans? Inside All the Suffering at the Meadowlands
Description
It is once again football season, and that means it’s time to have our hopes mercilessly crushed by both of our football teams — the New York Giants and the New York Jets. Both teams are too embarrassed to admit they play in New Jersey, but we’re the ones that should be embarrassed. They stink! It isn’t just that the Jets haven’t won a Super Bowl since coming to the Meadowlands in 1984 and the Giants have sandwiched plenty of soul-crushing losses in between their Super Bowl wins. It’s that both teams have had some of the most debilitatingly embarrassing moments in sports history happen to them. And thus to us, the fans. But which team is more embarrassing? Jeremy (a Giants fan) is joined by Jersey’s Best Podcast producer and long-suffering Jets supporter Bobby Olivier to discuss why he regrets picking his team (2:57 ), why Eli Manning was embarrassing even when he was great (9:24 ), the meltdown at the Meadowlands (29:36 ) and the infamous butt fumble (39:10 ). Then Jeremy and Bobby both run through the Garden State Gauntlet, Giants and Jets edition (42:59 )!
