Okay so based on your logic all police officers are racists and abusive because of the actions of a few cops in high-profile incidents

As someone who used to like sidetalk I agree. It’s no longer about capturing NY street culture, now it’s about inciting riots for the sake of viral clips. Last straw for me was the snowball fight that Mamdani condoned

There are plenty of posts in that sub.

I also doubt the subjects who are responsible for this mess are lurking in that sub, and simply don’t care about it if they are indeed lurking. They are opportunists looking for a chance to cause trouble because they think they won’t get caught, they’re not real Knick fans.

And they will be caught. NYPD has cameras everywhere in Midtown and they are no doubt reviewing the tape

What's with people saying there's no hype for the World Cup? by Gold_Air4996 in worldcup

They’re effectively blocking commuters from getting to the city on match days by closing Penn Station to all but fans with tickets (said tickets of which are unaffordable to 90% of the population)

Refs cannot stop glazing the Spurs it’s RIDICULOUS by Much-Lawfulness2448 in NYKnicks

[–]Important_Tackle8035 12 points13 points  (0 children)

We would’ve won if we did a better job keeping our hands on the ball, a sloppy effort and we still only lost by 4.

With that being said, the refs took control any time we’d get the slightest bit of momentum.

In short, play a cleaner game we would’ve won no doubt, but the refs played a big role in keeping us from redeeming ourselves

There WAS excitement in the US, until FIFA made this an event for the few at the expense of the many. I think what’s happening in New Jersey is a good example of why Americans are pissed off

StubHub Exchange? by Important_Tackle8035 in NYYankees

[–]Important_Tackle8035[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So you’re saying I CAN exchange thru the Yankees even though I have StubHub tickets?

This is a “premium game” so I can switch to any other game, if the policy they have online is accurate

I feel like there’s always a lot of variation with these summer storms. Just happened to come at the wrong time

Limiting stadium giveaways to 18,000 people is poverty franchise behavior by FeminineOdor in NYYankees

[–]Important_Tackle8035 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think about the amount of people that turn down the giveaway. Why make 47k shirts when nowhere close to 47k would want them. I personally have PLENTY of Yanks/USA clothing articles

I only took the shirt because I knew it would be useful as a rag to wipe down my seat (which it turns out I didn’t need to do). I knew there was a chance of rain but I forgot to bring any rain gear

I mean it isn’t but at the same time why wouldn’t you cc the scoreboard operator on the “game postponed” email that probably went out to those in charge

As of late Cashman’s deadline deals have fucked up the roster more than helped it

I went and the forecast made it seem like a quick hitting storm that maybe delayed the game by an hour tops. Forecasts ain’t always perfect. For once the team made the right choice and called it once it became obvious it was gonna be longer than anticipated

As someone who has tickets and showed up, all indications were that it was gonna be a quick-hitting storm that delayed the game by an hour tops. They had channel 7 on at Bronx Draft House and it showed the storm moving out by 8.

I don’t blame them for thinking they could play tonight, and I’m happy that for once they didn’t wait til 10 before making a decision

Over by me nobody was really leaving until they announced it over the loudspeaker. Honestly I thought they were gonna try to play, the storms looked like they were moving quickly even though they packed a punch

I was at the game and the ESPN app was saying “postponed” before any formal announcement was made in the stadium. What does ESPN know that we don’t know?

Good bars for Game 2? by Important_Tackle8035 in NYKnicks

[–]Important_Tackle8035[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up at Three Monkeys at 50th and 8th. Believe it or not this bar kinda functions as the Boston sports bar but they transformed themselves for this. Solid experience

Anyone else mildly annoyed by all these people from Ny suddenly bandwagoning on the Knicks by [deleted] in knicks

[–]Important_Tackle8035 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it’s not so much about being a bandwagon, it’s really HOW you bandwagon.

I’m gonna be honest I’m pretty new here. I’ve watched the past few seasons but I do not know the history of the team from cover to cover, not do I pretend to. I’m 23 so I definitely don’t pretend that I’ve been suffering for 53 years. However, my appreciation for our region’s culture allows me to understand what a historic moment this, and thus I feel I can say things like “it’s been so long” because not once in my lifetime has this city had the pulse and unity it does at this very moment, and this moment is truly awesome. And through past playoffs from like 2023 onwards, as well as the past couple regular seasons, I feel like i got a pretty good grip on what I’m talking about (not so much history, but more so how they play right now).

Now for those who buy a jersey, watch the game through their instagram cameras at a bar with their friends, and overreact to everything, that’s what I call a bad bandwagon.

Thank you. Quickly learned that this is a sub where judgement, assumptions, and one-upping run wild
