New York is a city of dreams. Millions arrive in the city with high expectations, but only a portion of them see their aspirations realized. Some of those who achieve their goals find themselves subject to ongoing scrutiny, leading to a perpetual sense of pressure. The same is the situation with the New York Yankees. The 27x champions are in one of the worst runs in recent times, with 2023 playoffs out of reach. As a result, owner Hal Steinbrenner is facing the heat of the fans. But he is not the only one under pressure in New York.

Notably, billionaire James Dolan, the owner of the New York Knicks and the New York Rangers, is unhappy with the city’s fanbase. Although he loves both of his teams, he is utterly disappointed about fans constantly criticizing him for his limited success. Dolan took a tone similar to his counterpart, Hal, who criticized the baseball fans from New York. The Knicks owner has now shared his anger with the fanbase of NBA and NHL teams. But it has not sat well with the fans, who have shared the same feeling in their social media reactions.
