Seahawks stars take shots at New York City

Several Seattle Seahawks took bites at the Big Apple on Tuesday, griping about the world’s greatest city during “Media Day” for Super Bowl XLVIII.

In a bizarre circus-like event in Newark — including a blond bombshell TV correspondent from Mexico who drew attention in a skintight super-short dress — the Seahawks repeatedly engaged in unsportsmanlike conduct against New York.

“I heard New Yorkers are rude,” linebacker Bobby Wagner said when asked for his biggest pet peeve about the city.

New York’s traffic and drivers repeatedly came under fire from the West Coast underdogs, with outspoken Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman saying the situation is as bad as in Los Angeles.

“It’s tough, man, and they’re aggressive. They are really aggressive in their driving,” Sherman said.

“The traffic, I hate traffic, I can’t stand traffic,” echoed wide receiver Doug Baldwin. “I like to get where I’m going. I want to get there without any wait.”

Quarterback Russell Wilson blasted the city’s taxis, saying: “Last time I was here in New York, the taxi almost ran over three people on the way at three different locations, three different blocks.”

And defensive tackle Brandon Mebane griped, “There’s a lot of people. It’s like bumper cars out here, you gotta put your seat belt on.”

Denver running back Knowshon Moreno, who grew up near the Jersey Shore, even got in a dig when asked which side of the Hudson River he preferred.

“New Jersey! It’s a no-brainer,” he said.

But Broncos cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie said, “I love New York!”

Rodgers-Cromartie said he planned to hit the city to celebrate after the game, but hadn’t yet picked a destination.

“I don’t know — I know somewhere good,” he said.

The media horde featured a colorful cast of characters.

Mexico’s TV Azteca — infamous for sending comely female reporters in skimpy outfits to cover NFL events — maintained its reputation when Mariana Gonzalez (right) showed up wearing a fur hat, lace miniskirt and stiletto-heeled boots.

The buxom blonde even tweeted a picture of her sexy outfit to her 30,000 Twitter followers with the comment “Amo mi trabajo!” — Spanish for, “I love my job!”

Other wacky correspondents included an Austrian reporter dressed up like classical composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and a Danish reporter clad like the “Where’s Waldo?” character.

In addition to the 2,000 reporters who attended, about 10,000 fans paid $28.50 each to watch the event at the Prudential Center.
