So much for the New York Jets moving into the city. The Jets and Giants agreed to build a stadium in New Jersey's Meadowlands; it will be the first NFL venue to be owned and operated by two teams. The new facility will be near state-owned Giants Stadium and the Meadowlands Racetrack (pictured).

Why is a new stadium necessary? So the teams can have more overpriced suites and luxury boxes?

According to published reports, the Jets and Giants will split the cost of building the stadium. This is a step in the right direction. Too often, teams want new stadiums, and they expect taxpayers to pick up the costs.

New Jersey's governor praised the Jets/Giants stadium deal, saying it would create "tens of thousands of new jobs". That sounds like typical political bullsh** to me. I think his math is more than a little bit off. Savvy voters will hold him accountable for such an outlandish claim.
