When did you realize these NY teams and athletes were constantly being overhyped? Yes, NY has produced some of the greatest athletes of all time, but it doesnt begin to compare to the trash they hype and force feed us all over our televisions/radios.

Coli brethren, I summon you (NY'ers too if you are brave enough) to help expose the filth they have thrown our way. :blessed:

I'll start with Sebastian Telfair. Hes a decent pro ball player but he was hyped like he was the next coming of Isaiah Thomas. Why did they want us to invest so much time and energy in this guys story? Why couldnt he just be another guy that made it from humble beginnings?
God Shammgod :scusthov:
Zab Judah....really good fighter, but thats where it ends
Mark Sanchez and these damn Jets...I know hes not from NYC but enough already, they're terrible

i got love for nyc as a city but i do see the hype machine in sports and music ....for every biggie there's 20 french montanas tho..... but i guess when your in the largest market it's unavoidable :manny:

it is gettin more exposed thanks to social network before there was kind of a mystery/aura about nyc that got them automatic cred but social media helps expose the phonies.....

Biggie

Nas

Jay-Z

:mjpls:

It's annoying. Then you have those swamp ducks with masculine voices and congolesian twists with zero edges.

Biggie is my boy, but if he is still in anybody's top 3....then the NY hype machine got you too

Jorge Posada is so average but those pinstripes have a hold of people :snoop:
bu..bu...but he won silver sluggers :aicmon:

Your greats are hyped to the end of the galaxy and your trash is hyped to equal the greats from everywhere else. The question is, do you or dont you agree with the original post?



Remember Jeremy Lin :heh:

This entire society is about hype brehs. NY is more about it than most if not all but lets not act like EVERYTHING in this country isnt hyped up to the fullest extent.

Jorge Posada was an integral part of one of baseball's greatest dynasties ever. Of course we gonna hype up that nikka.

Jeremy Lin was hyped but how is that our fault? He played well and got us in to a position to make the playoffs at a time when we couldnt do anything right. Plus the Asian crowd showed the homie mad love. Its not our fault ESPN gave him 24 hour coverage.

:heh: Why do people get so defensive. NY is a great city, I had a blast the times I've been there, but the hype machine is crazy breh. Can a NY lover at least admit to one person or team that is way overhyped due to the NY media. You fill our TVs with it and when they bust, the next NY story nobody is really interested in outside of NY is all over our screens.

Imagine if Roy Jones Jr or Mayweather were from NYC.... :whew:

So the NYC hype machine had nothing to do with LINSANITY :wtf: The hype had y'all questioning whether Melo could adjust to Lin and if you all should toss him in the bushes and run the p-n-r with Lin and Stoudemire.
