Deep thought on the political impact of the NJ Turnpike Series

by: Jason Springer

Mon Oct 26, 2009 at 12:18:38 AM EDT



Congratulations to the Yankees and their fans on advancing to the World Series.  I anxiously await the trash talking that will commence between Yankee and Phillie fans across the state.

On the political implications, I would say that Jon Corzine is the winner. Because how many more potential voters in New Jersey will be seeing his ads with the Yankees playing the Phillies than any other combination of teams. He probably couldn't ask for anything more as you will have the possibility of 5 games leading up to election day where all eyes will be on Fox.

The fun will begin Wednesday night.

The world has returned to a state of goodness and hope. The Yankees will win the World Series.

the political ads or the trash talk between fans?

I'd bet on the ads, even with the city known for the "Bronx Cheer" and the city that booed Santa Claus.

In a positive spirit, here's New Jersey's Frank Sinatra:

I was pretty surprised this morning (0.00 / 0)
Now, fandom is a personal thing and any feelings you have are legitimate.

But I was very surprised that, after hearing what a big Mets fan Christie is all year, he said on WCBS radio he's a "North Jersey guy" and will root for the Yankees.

Let me be blunt: I grew up surrounded by Mets fan, and thanks to the magic of Facebook, I can tell you not one is rooting for the Yankees.

Go Phils! (0.00 / 0)
The rich Yankees buy the three best free agents in the offseason.  They are Wall Street.  The Phils are Main Street.
