NYC Mayor DeBlasio takes shot at Brooklyn Nets

New York City mayor Bill DeBlasio poured salt on the wounds of the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday. At a town hall meeting in Queens, DeBlasio took the time to point out how rough it is being a Nets fan.

When a man in a Nets jacket stood up to ask a question, DeBlasio pierced the hearts of Nets fan with a sad-but-true zinger.

DeBlasio said to the man: “I’m from Brooklyn too, but this Brooklyn Nets idea has not been working out as it was planned, so I admire you for sticking with them.”

Now, the mayor isn’t wrong.
