## Appearances

### Debut

A Jets Fan Reaction to the 2019-2020 NFL Season

Bruce is a character associated with the New York Giants. He and his brother Springsteen lived together in order to take care of their perfectly healthy mother.

He was introduced in Season 1 of the NFC/AFC East Saga. He often ribs his brother Carl about the New England Patriots' 2 losses to the New York Giants in the Super Bowl.

He is adopted into Joe's family.

## Appearance

When we first meet Bruce, he is seen in a blue shirt similar to Springsteen's. He then wears a blue polo identical to that of Frederick, which makes Springsteen confused on who's who. They later distinguish between the brothers by taping a piece of paper that says "Moron" onto Frederick. In The AFC East's Reaction to Week 2, Joe gets Bruce a Plaxico Burress jersey to distract him from Saquon Barkley's torn ACL. At one point, Bruce is able to get the NFC East crown of flowers, dethroning Rocky. However, in The NFC & AFC East's Reaction to Week 14, Wildflower Turquoise gets the crown and ultimately wins the NFC East.

## Personality

When we first meet him, Bruce is pretty much Springsteen's other half.

## History

Bruce is originally the son of William and Margaret and brother to Gus, Rocky, and Wildflower Turquoise. He is later adopted by Joe and becomes brothers with Carl, Frederick, and Springsteen. At some point, Joe leaves the brothers behind and Carl moves to Boston, leaving him with Springsteen and Frederick.

At the start of the NFC/AFC Saga, we see Bruce and Springsteen share a fun rapport with each other, while bullying Frederick. This goes on until Carl moves home from Boston and puts the brothers in their place, tying Bruce up and leaving him in a closet. As Bruce breaks out, Joe comes home and reveals that Bruce is not their real brother but was adopted to get him out of his real family, which was a mess.

When the season starts, Bruce gets a Plaxico Burress jersey to keep him distracted from Saquon Barkley's injury. However, Carl spills the beans about the injury and a crying Bruce runs away from home on Carl's motorcycle, crashing it in the process. Stranded and with nowhere to go, Bruce goes to a house and meets a guy in a red thermal sitting on the steps. This is revealed to be his brother, Wildflower, and Bruce finds his real family. Unfortunately, the happy reunion is marred by Dak Prescott's injury against the Giants and Gus chases Bruce down, threatening to chop his foot off so that he knows how Dak feels. As Gus goes for the kill, he is punched in the face by Carl, asking Bruce where his motorcycle is. When Carl is held captive by Rocky, who plans to torture him with Nick Foles highlights, Bruce objects and along with Wildflower are about to take on the Eagles fan when Springsteen arrives, out of breath. It's an interesting reunion as the brothers reunite and Rocky recognizes the name from their online jiu-jitsu class. As everyone's getting acquainted, Springsteen is hit by a car and the driver is revealed to be Frederick.

While Springsteen lies in a coma, we see Bruce become tougher, punching Frederick and threatening him if anything happens to Springsteen. After Carl is freed, he brings their dad over to help wake up Springsteen. Unfortunately, when Bruce wrote Springsteen after finding his real family, it's said in the letter that Rocky would kill Joe for taking Bruce away. As the brothers realize, it's too late as Rocky shoots him dead.
