Is New Jersey such a big joke on the East Coast?

My relatives live there...

I heard the motto for the country in Afghanistan is "At least we're not Joisey". So I'd say its an international thing.

Not all of Jersey is bad, but there are a lot of parts of it where it is a total dump. Newark for example.

U mean to tell me this team couldnt build a stadium in Long Island somewhere. Anywhere other than New Jersey.

And to those other people saying that Giants and Jets are not the only teams that dont play where their city is your right, but there the only team I know that claims one state but plays in another.

I wish the WestSide Stadium had been built but instead we get two new baseball stadiums. 4 what I ask?

It's funny that someone who resides in College Park would talk about disease. There isn't a grimier college town than College Park, Maryland.

The Islanders are the second lowest drawing NHL team in the league and they have a proud history. Why would anyone move a sports team to Long Island?

ITs better than having a NY team in the state of NEW JERSEY.
