Someone gets nervous during Jets games...
Favorite NFL team: Obviously the Jets. And when will Rex Ryan finally shut up?
Favorite MLB team: The Yankees. Looking at the rest of my list you will see that this is the lone high spot of my favorite teams. Apparently I am a glutton for sports pain and anguish. I should probably take up rooting for soccer so I can pick a front running team to root for, but I don’t like to wear tight pants.
Favorite NHL team: The Brooklyn..errrr… New York Islanders. I say this with some hope of them moving down the block from our apartment so I can one day overpay for tickets. Maybe I can even pay a psl fee. (for non-New Yorkers a psl is short for a personal seat license, and is a usually large fee you pay to the team for the privilege to buy season tickets)
Favorite NBA team: The New York Knicks—and I am loving Linsanity, although this apparently is not a Scrabble word yet. Get on it Scrabble people. The clock is ticking.
Why do you like sports? Sports are great because they connect people from different backgrounds, and gives them a common topic to discuss and debate. Plus, you can always identify frontrunners, and know that you shouldn’t really become friends with them because when times are tough, they will root for someone else.
What is your favorite sports memory? My favorite sports memory is probably the Jets beating the Jaguars in the divisional round at the Meadowlands. To put my sports fandom in perspective this event took place at Giants Stadium.
Favorite Athlete: It is not Mark Sanchez.
Favorite Golfer: At first I hated Tiger because everyone else liked him, then I liked him because no one else did, now I’m on the fence because people are rooting for him again. I have to go with Bubba Watson because I love the overswing (see my golfing video to fully understand)
Dream Foursome (Golf): My dream foursome would be Sarah, Jesus and Tim Tebow. If I did not know Sarah I would obligatorily include Martin Luther King Jr.
