A first grade teacher explains to her class that she is a NY Jets fan.
She asks her students to raise their hands if they were Jets fans, too.
Not really knowing what a Jets fan was, but wanting to be like their teacher, hands explode into the air.
There is, however, one exception. A girl named Mary has not gone along with the crowd.
The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different. "Because I'm not a Jets fan."
"Then," asks the teacher, "What are you?"
"Why I'm proud to be a New Your Giants fan," boasts the little girl.
The teacher is a little perturbed now, her face slightly red. She asks Mary why she is a Giants fan.
Mary said, "Well, my Dad and Mom are Giants fans, and I'm a Giants fan, too!"
The teacher is now angry. "That's no reason," she says loudly. "What if your mom was a moron, and your dad was a moron, what would you be then?"
A pause, and a smile. "Then," says Mary, "I'd be a Jets fan."
