Media & Marketing: NFL Seeks Balance in Cable Fray --- In Patriots' Country, Many Fans Will Have to Scramble to Watch Showdown With Jets ----

Funny, every time we moan about the NY Giants and the NY Jets playing all their football games at Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands, East Rutherford, N.J., we are told the New York on their helmet is for the metropolitan New York area, not the city or the state.
I suggest we change the names of those regional teams that play NFL football in New Jersey to the East Rutherford Rugrats and the Teterboro Twinkletoes.
What would you call a professional football team that played all its home games in New Jersey?
