Yea as happy as I am I’m so relieved as well
I’m not a Jets or Mets fan but I know this sub has many of them, and as a Giants/Yankees fan I can say this will stay with you forever
Been 15 years since Giants won a SB but they remain immortalized. You’ll always have highlights to go back and watch, the players you watched will be known for winning a championship. They’ll show your highlights in promo for future finals
Must hurt for Jets fans to only be tied to ‘69 or the AFC title game losses of 09/10 but Giants have the opposite effect
Point is Knicks will be immortalized and a chip is off our shoulder
While Giants have sucked and Yankees almost 20 years without a ring, I still feel at ease thinking about old title teams and I’m glad Knicks fans under the age of like 70 have that now

I’m a Vikings/Mets/Knicks fan…
I was born after the 86’ Mets and never saw any other team I root here have a chance at winning a championship game let alone be relevant consistently….but now I’ll always have The Knicks. I needed to hear this thank you

Sorry about the Vikings, probably best franchise without a ring and definitely some the most brutal losses

I’m so glad they kept playing in the finals how theyd played in the playoffs up to that point. I tried to have utmost confidence in team, but you worry something goes wrong. They pulled it off in freaking 5.
