New Jersey Nets Brooklyn Arena
YES Network
"Nets fans in Brooklyn sound off on the new Nets Arena in Brooklyn on the YES Network."
Reporter Christa Robinson hits the streets for the TV network for the NJ Nets to find out what Brooklynites think about the Nets coming to Brooklyn.
You see where this is going pretty quickly when the piece opens, "This is the site where the new Barclays arena will be built. In a few years this area will be transformed from a train depot into the new home of the Brooklyn Nets, signifying the peak of a modern renaissance here in the beautiful city of Brooklyn."
Here are the sillier soundbytes:
"It means I'm going to be a happier person now. Now I have a place to go. Now we have a place to celebrate." — Willoughby Wiggins, Crown Hts.
"Thanks for bringing our team back to Brooklyn" — Tony Lopez, Bed-Stuy
NoLandGrab: Chances are slim that the YES Network will be programming "Brooklyn Matters" anytime soon.
