Brooklyn Nets
Brooklyn Nets
Boston has its “1918,” Brooklyn has 1957. The year the Brooklyn Bums were uprooted and transplanted to LA LA land to become the L.A. Dodgers. I wouldn’t be born for about another twenty years to parents who hadn’t moved to Brooklyn yet, but still I was raised to mourn the loss. “That’s Ebbet’s Field,” my mom says everytime we pass the housing complex built on athletic hallowed ground.
“Bastards,” she predictably adds.
Well, according to newsletters from the Brooklyn borough President Marty Markowitz, the Mayor and the Governor of New York are trying to lure the Nets to Brooklyn!
I don’t know if it’ll heal the broken hearts of the Brooklyn Dodger fans, but I’m so psyched that we might be getting a pro Sports team of Brooklyn’s very own!
If they sold shirts, I’d already have two!

It sounds like they’re trying to cut into the Knicks’ fanbase. You guys already have the Cyclones. Isn’t that enough?

No minor league baseball doesn’t count. And the Knicks could use a bit a competition for its fanbase, maybe they’ll play better.
