Both teams will practice in New Jersey as well. At a minimum, you'd think they could change their names vis a vis the Angels, i.e. the New York Jets/Giants of New Jersey.

BillyVance 35 #3 December 13, 2005 Yeah, go figure... I guess Manhattan property was too expensive. Didn't they try to get a proposal on a Manhattan stadium but it was shot down as being too pricey? If it's in New Jersey, I'm calling them the New Jersey Jets/Giants...

(plus what the post below says...the Jets played in New York, and I think the Giants went there for a season or so during renovations to the Meadowlands).
