Yes! It's very misleading.

No, the teams are misleading. Giants and Jets are New Jersey teams.

Kinda feels like New Jersey cheated here.

Why? Those teams literally play in NJ and everyone in North Jersey supports them.

They both have New York in the name. They are New York Teams. Just like the Cowboys aren't the Arlington Cowboys. The Jets/Giants just happen to play a suburb of a border city.

I don’t see how it’s misleading.

Who is being misled? No one cares that the stadium is on the other side of an imaginary line.
