Our Reading
This one felt recognizable early.
NYU students, allegedly, throwing snowballs at police officers responding to a call. You see this kind of thing happen all the time.
Mayor Mamdani downplaying it, saying it was just “kids throwing snowballs.” Yeah, right.
Meanwhile, the officers are left with facial lacerations and a whole lot of disrespect.
The game followed a familiar script: officials downplaying the severity of the situation, law enforcement getting disrespected, and fans left wondering what’s going on.
Original Observation: The result wasn’t surprising by the end.
