Great win, piss poor fan support


124

Recommended Posts

Great game. Loved it except for the secondary once again not being able to cover anybody. Furrey did way too well against our seconday, always finding lanes to be wide open and breaking tackles.

But, what was with all the empty seats? There were a few rows with NOBODY in it. That's pathetic. If people arn't going to the game and can't sell them, find someone to give them too so we can have a packed house. There had to be 5,000 empty seats. Pathetic.

Oh and I got in a battle with a Lion fan who was escorted out at the 2 minute warning. :box: Me of course, just fine.

It was supposed rain. Hoax terrorism scare. Mild retardation. All three.

Actually, it could have been even emptier, but the crowd was just sort of mellow, confident we'd pull it off, a little laid back. Good thing the team didn't see it that way; but if there was 4 mins. rather than 2:00 remaining, it could have turned into the winner is the team with the ball last and laughs last. Er, well, that is how it turned out. You get me.

Still, a win is a win, and I'm happy tonight.

Were you two arguing over who's team invented the word "futility"?

No.

Actually, he kept pissing off the entire 123 / 124 sections with **** the Mets, **** the Yankees, they both suck yada yada yada and basically I started a tiny Lets Go Cardinals and Albert Pujols chants. He came walking by me to talk **** and I told him to get the **** out of my stadium and Lets Go Cardinals and to go back to his piece of **** poverty driven city (which yes, I was born in) and to go **** himself. The security guard came down as the guy got closer and took him out and we all basically went to the ******* chants... but in between we both had a few choice words for each other.

But, still rooting for the Tigers, just, had to do it to piss the prick off.\:D/

Umm...I hate to tell you this, but not only do you not own that stadium, either does the pathetic team you root for. :Nuts:

So what? The Giants don't own it either. It sucks playing in a stadium named after another team, but the Giants played in Yankee Stadium for years and never bitched. Second class status to the Giants is better than second fiddle to the Mets to play in that s$!thole.

Actually I can not believe all the people leaving the game early. Was not good to see- if you are going to the game stay the whole game-you are not going to beat traffic anyway.

You guys should be friggn' embarrassed.

The stadium was half empty early in the 4th quarter.

And you guys get on the Dolphins for having all those empty seats.:eek:

having been stuck in that stadium parking lot for more hours than I would care to remember, i cannot begrudge any ticket holder who leaves early or simply doesn't go at all. It's a pain in the butt to get in and get out of that stadium and people have to work on Monday.

WHAT?

If you don't like to sit in traffic, give up your seats so one of the 10,000 people on the waiting list can go to the games.

Traffic. Please.

BTW: I live in Long Island City, do two rivers to get home and it only took me about 60 minutes and I left my seat when the last second ticked off the clock.

Gotta agree with BZ on this one. It's not like we're putting an unwatchable product on the field.

If you can't go, give the tickets away for free. If it's too cold to stay (and it wasn't even cold yesterday), particularly in a game with scoring going on, move to Miami where fans are not expected to attend the games.

I agree, as far as the experience being difficult. Understand that if you go to the game it's an all day thing. I have a neighbor who never tailgates and is shocked he gets there late when he doesn't leave Brooklyn until 11:30 for a 1PM game, and proceeds to bitch about missing the 1st quarter. Get there early and cue while waiting an hour or so after the game. Though I still don't get the leaving the game early thing. It's why you go in the first place. And you're sitting in traffic anyway. The traffic does lessen a whole lot if you wait a bit.

One thing that pisses me off-does NYC have to have BS street fairs and closures every Sunday? The Marathon, I understand(and I don't think we're impacted this year). But last Sunday they shut Manhattan down on a Sunday for a 5-boro bike tour. Instead we had to go SI to Goethals to 1/9. It's as if the NFL and NYC do not communicate at all about traffic headaches, because I hear the same complaint from Jints fans.

hello. it was a one o' clock game

so what

if you leave from Long Island at 8:30am, get there at 10am, tailgate until kickoff, by the time the game is over you have spent almost a full workday in pursuit of the Jets. Enough is enough after a while.

If there was a train out of Meadowlands it would be an easier choice. Instead everyone is trying to beat the traffic. It's a logistics problem.

not to mention unless you know the parking lot really well finding the "exits" can be an adventure.

Not sure Sunday is a "workday" but I guess for some.

Again, there are 10,000 people waiting to go to the game. If someone doesn't like the traffic, the cold, the beer or whatever, just give up your tickets and let someone who wants to go go to the game.

Speaking of retarded fans...anyone see the brawl in section 321, I thought the yellow jacketed security guards broke some fool's arm as they put him in a chicken wing and threw him down the stairs. He was being an @sshole and tried to fight security so he got what he deserved.

Yep. I was sitting right there.
