if this is supposed to be a knock in the Giants, many teams stadiums are not in the actual city of the team, and why does that even matter if it’s still close

Because you’re paying the taxes for that stadium for a team who won’t even rep jersey 🥲

MetLife Stadium was actually built without any public funding

MetLife is also closer to its namesake city than the other teams who don’t play in their actual cities. Hell, Santa Clara where the 49ers actually play is 45 miles away from San Francisco.

The devil is in the details. By doing so they cut the city off from being able to have any opportunity for shared revenue in parking and accommodations.
The super bowl also cost the state $36 million in taxpayer money. The average tax revenue from the stadium itself is about $6 million.
And now we have the world cup to consider that will cost $14 million to prepare the stadium and a $5 million revolving credit account for the organization planning the renovations.
It's kind of like buying a horse. If I bought you a horse and convinced you to just pay for upkeep while I profit from whatever I use the horse for...well then I've fucked you.

Not to mention we are in a NJ sub with Eagles fans criticizing the Giants for being from another state. Rooting for the Eagles, a team from another state.
Philly fans are so dumb.

This guy is the most butt hurt sore loser I've seen in a minute lmao! You went from mocking fly eagles fly, went to your cave to cry at half, and came back calling everyone from Philly dumb. Bro, you should just log off reddit for a few weeks. You're going to have a mental breakdown, if not already
