New York Adam
I thought it was pretty obvious to anyone that knew me that I am a NewYork sports fan. I often wear a clothing or hats from the Yankees, Rangers, Jets, or Knicks. I don't follow many weekly shows because I watch a lot of sports; New York sports. One of my only nicknames besides "Nelson" was "New York Adam". Why am I bringing this up? Recently on facebook people have been commented on my profile pic which is the logo of the Knicks; usually something like, "why do you have that picture?" or "when did you become a NY fan?" Seriously people? Really? I feel like these people have completely overlooked who I am. I feel like that guy who came up to my brother and I all excited to see us and we had absolutely no clue who he was. I know sometimes I can be withdrawn about certain areas about my life or I am selective in who I share certain details, but I'm pretty sure this part of my life was obvious. My brother who doesn't follow sports still thought (and was right) that a Knicks hat would be a sweet birthday gift for me. (Which he gave with a Yankees shirt; thanks Jay) Maybe it is a continuing sign that the internet creates these superficial relationships or the false sense that we really know someone. So to clear things up: I am a huge New York fan.

I remember that guy that we had no idea who he was. . . still don't, although I have some idea! haha! And yeah, the internet, well facebook specifically, creates the appearance of relationships when it's really just superficial connection. . . anyone who actually knows you, knows that you're a New York fan.
