In the world of sports, fans’ affection and brutality go hand in hand. As passionate as fans can be, they are the best critics of their teams. Be it baseball or football, some players have their names etched in infamy. New York has plenty of them in both sports, as it turns out.

The city has a reputation for producing players with catastrophic performances. And now, the New York Giants quarterback is the highlight along with two Yankees worth $487 Million.

Walking down the 2023 regular season memory lane, one can see a series of events that have put Carlos Rodon under the radar. It has been a rocky journey for him, considering his derailment due to injuries and poor performances. The $162 million pitcher even told mlb.com, “It’s pretty disappointing. There’s not much else to say about it. Whenever your performance is bad, it’s never easy to flush”. With that, he made his way out of the good books of fans, joining hands with another disliked Bronx Bomber.

Giancarlo Stanton is known for creating new lows and inviting boos from fans. Owing to his advancing age, the 33-year-old appears lost at the plate at most times. History is proof of his below-par offense that has led the team to suffer losing streaks. The 13-year, $325 million contract has kept him tied to the NY Yankees. Meanwhile, a New York Giants QB has found himself in a similar situation. 

On Monday night, Giants quarterback Daniel Jones honored his unfortunate tradition by starting the week with a defeat. Such was his performance. Playing against the Seattle Seahawks, Jones embarrassed himself as he could not get the rhythm of the offense right. Seeing 3 players from New York flopping on an international stage has fans talking about New York’s bleeding bank accounts. 

Fans’ perspective on New York’s expenses

The fans took to X to speak their hearts out. One fan thinks Rodon is the “bigger thief”.

Some fans stood by Jones, defending him from the heat of other comments. 

Another post, in a similar vein, compared Jones with Giancarlo Stanton.

A couple of fans were disappointed that Stanton’s performance deteriorated over time.
