The green jersey is more about being consistently up, every day, and three parts really.
Just knowing that people are going to the game or something with your jersey on and supporting you is really exciting and was a dream of mine. Every time I see it at Dortmund, at games, it’s still exciting and gets you really excited to play.
My mother took care of us until my father scrammed, and then she ended up working in the small-factory sector of New Jersey with a lot of other immigrants.
I need a little more ‘Jersey Shore’ in me, I guess. It’s just not who I am. It would almost be phony at this point.
If America isn’t asking for Europe’s help with New Jersey, why should Europe feel uninhibited about asking for America’s help with Greece?
Barack Obama and Jimmy Hoffa are like Tweedledum and Tweedledee, Lady Gaga and hype, the ‘Jersey Shore’ cast and hairspray: inseparable. The president can no more disown the Teamsters Union’s leader than he can disown his own id.
Dishonesty is Trump’s hallmark: He claimed that he had spoken clearly and boldly against going into Iraq. Wrong. He spoke in favor of invading Iraq. He said he saw thousands of Muslims in New Jersey celebrating 9/11. Wrong. He saw no such thing. He imagined it.
I always felt like a girl. My parents in New Jersey weren’t exactly encouraging, but my grandmother was very open-minded. She had lots of costume jewelry and a big chest of purses and things, and she would let me play with all of it – even her makeup and perfume. She just didn’t care.
Growing up in New Jersey, teen clubs were your life. I’m not kidding! That was it. I was literally tied up five days a week with teen clubs; my parents would drop me off. Like, I didn’t even drive.
The women’s movement was slow in coming to suburban New Jersey.
My dad got a job in a factory in Philadelphia, so I was raised in Germantown in a sort of a barracks for soldiers. They had housing for temporary housing. And then my parents saved money and bought a little house in South Jersey, built on a swamp.
I wear the Argentina jersey with all the values I learned from my home and growing through football.
The best part appearing in ‘Jersey Girl’ was meeting my idol Jennifer Lopez.
And I think what people in New Jersey have gotten to know about me over the last decade that I’ve been in public life is what you see is what you get. And I’m no different when I’m sitting with you than I am when I’m at home or anyplace else.
I often have the feeling that Ozil does not feel comfortable in the Germany jersey, that he is not free, almost as if he does not want to play at all. There is no heart, no joy, no passion.
The people of South Jersey are counting on me.
In New Jersey, judges have ruled that a same-sex couple or a single person applying to adopt must be given the same place in line as a married man and woman. I think that’s bad for kids. This makes me homophobic? I’m in show business. Half the people in my life are gay.
I want people to know where I come from. I think I have come really far from that, and I did it on my own. It’s sort of the American dream to come from absolutely nothing and to succeed while still doing something that you love. Not compromising yourself in any way. I hope I’m making Jersey proud in that way.
I’m a Jersey girl, but I went to college in L.A. I can connect with the feeling of wanting to come home.
I made the best choice coming to PSG, and after almost two years I have no doubts about it. I’ve been very well received, I’m playing and wearing the jersey of a side that can win it all.
I remember my England debut, in 2002. It came in Jersey, in a triangular tournament with New Zealand and India. To say that it did not generate great local interest is putting it mildly: our first game, against India, attracted a handful of spectators.
I haven’t taught since 2004, but I taught high school English for seven years, primarily at a place called Haddonfield Memorial, which is in a very well-to-do-community in Southern New Jersey.
I was a liberal Republican growing up in New Jersey. That doesn’t exist anymore. If you’re a Republican, you have to think that tax cuts for the rich are awesome, torture is awesome, moral war is awesome.
I think New Jersey’s process is actually a very good one – the good government. The governor presents the budget, you’ve got one-on-one meetings, you’ve got leadership meetings, you’ve got hearings, more importantly, that are transparent and open.
He’s dangerous, he’s beautiful, and he loves the heat, like me – that’s why I had a scorpion tattooed on my leg in 1999 after my fifth jersey.
The Fair Indexing for Health Care Affordability Act is a simple, common-sense solution that will protect costs and make health care more accessible for South Jersey individuals and families. We should be working on solutions to lower out-of-pocket expenses, not increase them.
I live in New Jersey, so I kind of just go to New York whenever.

I don’t want to be the mayor of New Jersey.
My family moved from California to New Jersey in the beginning of my sophomore year of high school. I will never forget the first day in a new school, walking into the cafeteria during lunch and not knowing a single soul. I didn’t feel confident enough to share a seat at just anyone’s table.
In a way, it’s like I want to come here, I want to play for the home team and put a Lakers jersey on. That’s always going to be something that I want to fulfill.
When you are wearing the jersey that you love and are getting playing time, in the end, you value that much more than other things.
George Alessandro in New Jersey builds these great amplifiers. He was working on my Super Reverbs for years and he’s kind of a vintage Marshall specialist. He built this amp and it’s kind of a cross between a Dumble and a Super Reverb but a little juiced up with a little more power.
That’s one of my favorite things from my dad is his old jersey.
‘Jersey Boys’ was a lot of running around and a lot of energy, but it was more stylized movement.
I moved from Kentucky to Miramar, Florida, at about 8. I think I was in second grade. I still had my Southern accent, and down there, you got to experience a melting pot in full fury. All the kids I hung out with were, like, Sicilian kids from Jersey and New York.
In 1992, when I was 16, I moved to the United States to start working on my Ph.D. at Princeton University in New Jersey.
DMOs help our economy thrive in South Jersey.
I took pride in everything when it came to Canada. Not even just Toronto, everything that came with Canada, wearing that Toronto Raptors jersey.
I was born in New Jersey, but it doesn’t sound like I’m from a certain region.
Just like I feel like I’m from New Jersey, I’m blonde.
Springsteen is a hero to a lot of people in New Jersey. He’s a role model – because he’s a local guy who got out.
There’s a high school in Camden, New Jersey, I call the Jill Scott School. It’s the Camden Creative Arts High School. Those teachers and kids are so passionate about what they do, and 98 percent of the senior class went on to college.

Third Irishman to wear the green jersey, after 31 years, that’s very special for me, and I’m focused on keeping it.
When I was growing up, it was a lot of punk and hardcore music going on in legion halls and firehouses, and we’d play those shows, and it was very Jersey. It was very suburban, and there’s just a great pride there.
I was a big Jersey meat-and-potatoes kind of guy before I got here.
I love the Memphis sound. When I was 16-and-a-half, with my driver’s permit, I was playing New Jersey clubs in a 10-piece band; we had a horn section and would play great, great songs like ‘Hold On! I’m Comin” and ‘Knock on Wood’ and ‘Midnight Hour.’
There’s a directness and a feistiness to being from Jersey.
Whenever you put on the Canadian jersey, it’s an honor and it would be a huge honor to represent us at the Olympics.
I admire Messi: he’s never complained to me in any game we played, but I’ve also never asked him for his jersey and never would. I came to win, not to say I played against Messi.
I have had the opportunity to speak to the people of South Jersey. I have held Tele-Town Halls, gone to countless events, and met with thousands of the individuals who make up our community.
Growing up in Jersey makes you a little bit ballsier, a little more outspoken.
When we were trying to get ‘Jersey Boys’ off the ground, I’d get, ‘The Four Seasons? Who’s going to care? There’s the Beatles, there’s the Rolling Stones.’ But people know those stories. Here was a story no one knew.
My Beijing jersey means more to me than any of them.
When I voted against the cap-and-trade bill, the phone rang and it was the chief of staff of the president of the United States of America, Rahm Emanuel, and he started swearing at me in terms and words that I hadn’t heard since that crossing the line ceremony on the USS New Jersey in 1983.
