    Hopefully, they'll still call themselves NJ, just like the Giants and the Jets still call themselves NY.

    I think that the new name should be the Brooklyn Goldsteins. If anything, it would give our old buddy an excuse to file yet another lawsuit, something he seems to love doing.

    Or perhaps the Brooklyn Oders. Deoderant commercials would line up around the block to sponsor the team.

    How about the Brooklyn Druids, Karl? Would you sue or elect to read your poetry at the opening game?

    I actually hope they name themselves the Manhattan somethings as a big FU to Marty, and a lesson to future opportunist jackass politicians who allow this sort of land/tax abuse.

    Sadly, I know most politicians are beyond learning.
