The Mets Police

Flipping through the News this morning I saw this nonsense:

Giants and Jets owners say they had no choice with pricey PSLs 


Really?   That's interesting.  No choice huh?  Let me read more...

Mara says that the Giants would have been unable to avoid the PSL program even if they had known how severe the financial crisis would become. "That program is necessary to complete the construction of the new stadium," he says.

Oh.  Interesting.  The PSLs fund the new stadium.

The question nobody answers, and the question the mainstream media continues not to ask is:

WHY DID THEY NEED A NEW STADIUM?

Show me one fan, Giants or Jets, who had a problem with the "old" stadium.   Any complaints are related to parking (especially since construction started on the Xanadu boondogle).   It's hard to get their on mass transit, more so now that they made it a two seat ride.     Building a new stadium in the exact same place solves none of these issues.

The Giants are...let me check....undefeated and the Super Bowl champions.   The Jets were able to get this Brett Favre guy.   The NFL still has revenue sharing and a pretty good TV contract.

You wanted to make even more money.

You wanted to make even more money.

You wanted to make even more money.

Be honest when sending out those $20,000 invoices.

Hey Giants fans, don't lame out - show up at the PSL Rally and keep an eye out on http://pslrally.com/ for the official info.  There is a poster you can download (I don't know how to attach a pdf to a blog, but that's my small brain).

The email blast on Wednesday said:

the location of the demonstration will be between Parking Lot sections 15 & 16 in front of Gate C.

Also a reporter at CNN is looking to do a piece about families who can no longer afford their seats.  If that;s you contact:

(EAST RUTHERFORD) - The "Mets Police" today announced they were placing a curse on the Evil Money Grubbing Football Giants Of New Jersey.

The Curse of The PSL's will remain in effect for the remainder of the Giants tenure at Giants Stadium, and for the entire lifetime of "New Meadowlands Stadium."   The Curse of The PSL's is punishment for being completely disrespectful of their fanbase in 2008.

The Curse shall cause the Giants to never ever win the Super Bowl until "New Meadowlands" is torn down.   No transfer of ownership will lift the curse, so the team should stay in the losing hands of the present ownership forever.   They will have their money, but they shall have no additional rings.

The Mets Police decided not to place a similar curse on the Jets because (a) they met the fanbase half-way and (b) they have enough curses on them already and (c) the Jets will never make a Super Bowl anyway so it would be impossible to tell if the curse worked.
