When You're A Jet (Fan), You're A Jerk All The Way

As a former rugby player, I am fond of exclaiming, "Football is for pussies!" Especially when football players are nowhere nearby. Anyway, this recent Times article (brought to my attention by Roommate Katey) proves that some football is so lame, the fans are even lamer, and only show up to harass women:

Three deep in some areas, they whistled and jumped up and down. Then they began an obscenity-laced chant, demanding that the few women in the gathering expose their breasts. When one woman appeared to be on the verge of obliging, the hooting and hollering intensified. But then she walked away, and plastic beer bottles and spit went flying... “This is the game,” said Patrick Scofield, a 20-year-old from Poughkeepsie, N.Y."

This is apparently the regular ritual (though only for Jets games, never for the Giants), and security guards feel in no way obligated to intervene, even when women get groped. I'm not sure there's much more I can say about this--it speaks for itself in its awfulness--except that, obviously, rugby is better.
