Nets Serve Up Early Thanksgiving Dinner At BK Church
NY1
The Nets served up an early Thanksgiving dinner in Brooklyn Thursday to a couple hundred of their future neighbors.
Saint Bartholomew church in Bedford-Stuyvesant hosted the event, which was sponsored by Forest City Ratner who is behind the proposed Atlantic Yards project, which includes a 20,000 seat arena for the Nets. Both current and former Nets agreed that the event was a great chance to give back.
"You know this is our first year of doing it in Brooklyn, which is going to be our home so it is fun to come out here and see the people that we are going to be representing in the next few years,” said Nets forward Richard Jefferson.
NoLandGrab: We don't know who elected Richard Jefferson to represent us, but he can't be much worse than many of our other local elected officials.
