Only this one will be a tad different than you're used to. Here's how it works. We have a crack news team, interns, a traffic copter, and a Friday night music series. Johnny talks mess, you respond (at least we hope you'll respond) and we go from there.
Johnny got into Jersey City all of two days ago but that won't stop him from pretending he knows everything there is to know about Jersey City, Bayonne, Hoboken, Union City, Weehawken, Kearney and Newark, our towns of interest. We'll also have fun jabbing NYC in the ribs from time to time as we put aside the romance of the Big Apple and expose the maggoty apple parts from the other side of the Hudson River.
We'll openly root for Rutgers football like we used to do for Eastern Michigan back when the staff here ran the Ypsi City Desk (and you can get a good idea of what's coming by checking out that site). Rutgers does tend to win a lot more games than Eastern Michigan ever did. Johnny is going to order a Rutgers shirt later today in fact to be a part of the home team. We'll cover the Devils but do know Johnny is a die-hard Detroit Red Wings fan and still hasn't forgotten 1995.
We'll also put you to bed every night with an open thread where you are free to talk as much crap as you can.
We'll never edit you unless it gets REALLY disgraceful or disgusting, so feel free to swear but remember you'll make your points much better if you haven't been huffing glue and listening to old John Valby cassettes.
Game on!
Great to see you're settled and starting to bring the ruckus, Johnny!
ReplyDeleteMaybe you can start a weekly feature called: "How to speak New Jersian" where we can analyze the finer points of the Joizy accent. And torment them by asking for a POP.
Glad to see you're throwing down in Jersey. Be straight up!
ReplyDeleteI was actually gonna wait a few days but then thought, if I don't start now I'll never get it going.
ReplyDeleteThanks gang, feel free to POP in anytime
