Keidel: Only The World Outside NYC Cares About This Series — And That’s A Shame
The truth is, if a New York City team isn’t on the scent of some championship, we don’t give a damn. The truth is, we share The New Yorker magazine’s template view of Earth — New York, New Jersey, then China.
Keidel: Here’s My Idzik-ian Monologue — The Jets Are A Joke!
How do we even put postmortems on this flat-lined franchise? Is it off with Rex Ryan’s vocational head? Or do we blame the GM who didn’t see fit to spend $20 million in cap space?
Keidel: Dallas Cowboys… America’s Team Or Just A Dream?
The Dallas Cowboys, at 6-1, once again look like America’s Team. Will they continue their run, and do they deserve the title?
Keidel: The NBA Is Here, Which Means The Carmelo Anthony Apologists Are Back
As our two NFL teams tank, we are approaching the oblivion of winter. That means no baseball, some channel-skipping football and basketball. Which brings us to the sequel to Fan Guy: the Carmelo Anthony Apologist.
Keidel: Giants Will Need A Miracle To Squeak Into The Playoffs
The Giants need to split their next four games or they will split on the season. That’s not up for debate. Not even the Giants can rebound from the depths this year.
Keidel: Jets Made A Huge Mistake Getting Harvin, And Will Pay For It In The End
The Jets don’t cast out talent lightly. They hurl it with great abandon. Harvin is quite talented. But it appears he’s even more tormented. And that’s probably the part the Jets find more appealing, no matter how appalling.
Keidel: Boy, Am I Glad I’m Not A Jets Fan
I talked to an ardent Jets follower this morning. He said his father recently apologized for handing him a Gang Green program in 1984. Even the best dads make mistakes.
Keidel: Royal Blue Skies For Kansas City
Baseball is trying to be pure again. And when you consider the final four teams in the MLB postseason, they did a good job. The Giants, Cardinals, Orioles and Royals aren’t considered members of the monetary aristocracy, at least not at the level of the Yankees, Red Sox, and Dodgers.
Keidel: Relax Giants Fans, There’s A Reason This Franchise Has Earned Your Trust
After the way their team was vaporized by the Eagles, Big Blue devotees are back to the September song of death. Just 60 minutes turned the tune from elitism to defeatism.
Keidel: Jets Fans, In All Seriousness, Stop Supporting This Team Financially
Fan Guy and I have arrived at a detente — assuming he knows what that is. I have abandoned my crusade to show him his more heinous impulses, to direct his ire at the Jets rather than those of us who tell him how gangrenous Gang Green really is.
Keidel: Jets Fans, Please Stay Off Twitter; You’re Embarrassing Yourselves
There seem to be two types of Jets fans. The long-suffering fan who toils in tired desperation, the Joe & Evan, “Oh, the pain!” gang. They plod down the decades in quiet resignation. The there is Fan Guy, the disgrace that calls Twitter home.
Don’t Bury Brady Just Yet
Jason discusses Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, and the Patriots not being done yet.
Keidel: Jets Have Been An Embarrassment For 40 Years, But Who’s Counting?
The Jets are appalling. The Jets are lost. The Jets are losers.
Keidel: Giants Rarely Disappoint, And Even When They Do, It Never Lasts
You refused to listen two weeks ago. But we’ll say it again. The Giants are legit. They didn’t panic at 0-2, and now they are 3-2.
Keidel: Underrated? Get Real — Melo Is Most OVERRATED In NBA
Only in the NBA and NYC would a one-dimensional player on a perennial loser assert his place atop the totem pole of basketball stardom.
