Chris Christie Is a Dallas Cowboys Fan


NFL.com reports:

While talking to students at Samsel Upper Elementary School on Tuesday, New Jersey’s governor, Chris Christie, revealed his favorite sports teams. Those teams included the New York Mets, New York Knicks, New York Rangers and …

” … my favorite football team is not the New York Giants, it’s not the New York Jets and it’s not thePhiladelphia Eagles. Get ready now: My favorite football team (is) the Dallas Cowboys — which, by the way — is not the smartest thing for the governor of New Jersey to want to be, is a fan of theDallas Cowboys,” Christie said.

He added: ” “I was a big fan of Roger Staubach, who was the quarterback for theCowboys back then. The Giants and the Jets pretty much stunk when I was a kid and my father was a Giants fan. I used to remember watching him when I was eight, nine years old and every Sunday he would watch the Giants and yell at the TV set. I used to think to myself, ‘Why would I want to root for a team that makes you angry?'”

Better question: Why would you vote for a governor whose sporting allegiances make you angry?
