When the Giants and Jets…well in my lifetime the Giants win Super Bowls there isn’t a ticker tape parade in Hoboken….canyon of hero’s baby!!!!
It just doesn’t make sense. Did St Louis have a parade for the Rams for last years super bowl? Or Cleveland when the Ravens won?

You move to a different state change your name. If they want to call themselves the tri-state Giants sure… haha. But quit riding NY’s coattails

I guess Buffalo should be the Orchard Park Bills too right?

And the Dallas cowboys should be the Arlington Cowboys?

What coattails?

The Giants are the last NY team to win a championship.

I know - odd argument. Sure their address is a stone’s throw from the border, but they’ve been called the NY Giants forever.

I’ve been hearing this argument a lot from Bills fans when I tell them who I cheer for. “They’re not even from NY!”

So? You know how many Patriot/Dolphin/Philly/Cowboy/Steeler fans etc. live around here?

Go BIG BLUE!

I tell them the Bills don’t even play in Buffalo and used to play home games in another country every year. If we want to be dumb and annoying about technicalities, let’s go!

I was just referring to using the name New York. What’s the mileage cutoff? If the Giants and Jets move to New Haven CT can they still be called NY?

I’m a Bills fan for sure but I’ll root for the Giants if they’re playing Dallas, Washington etc. The Jets? Never

I just think they should be the NJ Giants/Jets if they live practice and play in NJ.

It’s no different than Schiano saying Rutgers is a NYC team
 
Yes they can.

I guess they can! Haha

I think Yale stadium is like 70,000 capacity so they probably couldn’t find a NY place that size

I was too young at that time to know if they were trying to stay in NY but NY refused to give public tax dollars or not so they moved to NJ?

On another note, I don’t think NY should be giving the Bills $850 million in public funds to stay in Buffalo either

Love watching Allen, and always cheered for the Bills when it didn’t affect the Jints.

But, I disagree, it is very different than Rutgers. The NY Giants shared Yankee Stadium until 1976. At that point they needed their own stadium for obvious logistical reasons. The space simply does not exist in NYC to build a major stadium complex.

NJ offered to build the stadium, 7 miles from the border.

I get the whole address thing, but they’re the NY Giants, and they always will be. And even if they moved to Boise, they’d still be my squad.

NY should be happy they’re repping them in pro football, no other teams even sniff their championship pedigree out of the 3.

Fair enough, I can’t argue with any of those points

Why not? UConn calls itself the "Sixth Borough" of New York. ;)
