Best Answer

The Yankees played in the Bronx since 1923, and George Steinbrenner wanted a new stadium in the Bronx and that is what he got in 2009. There was talk about Manhattan and New Jersey, but the Yankees will always stay in the Bronx.

As of the 07-08 NBA season, the New Jersey Nets still play in New Jersey. Actually, the New Jersey Nets were called the New York Nets early in their history from 1968-1977, and during that time, their home arenas were located on Long Island. If the New Jersey Nets move to Brooklyn like they plan to, they will probably rename themselves the New York Nets like they were named before. They also would market themselves as one of New York City's teams to compete with the New York Knicks, who are their biggest competition.
