Is he like New York's version of Dave Roberts where no matter what else happens in his life, he will be forever loved in New York?the ferry commute this morning was one of the worst trips I've ever had. There were Giants fans chanting, then you had some Obama supporters trying to compete with Hillary supporters, all of which was mostly drowned out by my earbuds but it still annoyed me. The thing starts right by my office and the cops were already having problems trying to divert traffic & people around.
The parade goes right by my office today. 8:30, the street was already completely lined with people. I thought it was a lot, and then I was told that when the Yankees won the World Series, it was about 10 deep at this time.
Red Sox, Yankees, Giants, Patriots, whatever. Taking the day off to watch a parade go by is pathetic. I'm sure a lot of these people are blue collar, hourly paid workers, and they are spending the day doing this? Wow. I will never understand people who are really really into sports.
