The fan base may not do something for him directly, but they're the reason he's getting paid. No fanbase, they wouldn't be in NY.
lol no the reason he's getting paid is because he's (presumably) good at sports. The moment it becomes clear he's not, all the sucking up he does to the fanbase won't change the fact that he's out on his butt. Personally I don't think he needs to be either arrogating himself to the fans or sucking up to them but instead spending time getting better so he doesn't get fired. Call me crazy. I don't think NFL linemen get "sick days" though if that helps you figure this out at all...
