“Sports is a never-ending tragicomedy that refreshes itself daily. It’s about spectacle. It’s about power. It’s about vanity. It’s about ego. It’s about triumph. It’s about the ludicrousness of thinking you personally have control over anything. It’s about a game being entirely irrelevant, yet making you believe at times that nothing else on earth could possibly matter. In other words: It’s about New York.”
