    My advice to Woodrow: Go to England and never come back.

    Woody ain't selling. He is printing cash and he don't need the jets. It's a toy. Come to grips with it. He is gonna be running this team till he starts shitting in his diapers. It's why I stopped my seasons. We r never winning a super bowl while he's the owner. He's a fool and looks like one wearing a jets hat with his suit

    These are the dog days of Summer so Tull and his post here are just result of heat stroke ..so I give him a pass

    I love the Beach , we all like a tan and other than my Apple computer dying after 5 years not much action happening for me in July other than 2 new job offers that are great!

    I wish everyone on TGG a happy vacation time but the itch to see pads and helmets is creeping up

    Just hope no player collapses in this heat. I tried jogging outside and was done inside 25 minutes.

    My opinion: Love/Hate MM but at least let the dude pick his own Coach

    My advice to Woody -- TGG is not a consultation service.

    Almost anyone but the Dolans. I guess there could always be a worse owner, but the Jets would be hard-pressed to find one worse than Hess and now Johnson. Johnson is somewhat better than Hess. Maybe we can take another step up the ladder or two in terms of owners.

    Why there is so much hate for Woody anyway? He opened his wallet, he's been on board with changes, keeps his hands away from the team.

    During Tebow time -- sure, I could understand the sentiment. What exactly are you complaining about now? There was a shift in his mentality after Idzik: he hired people and stayed away. I.e. provided resources without undue interference. So what more do you need from him?

    He stayed away? Where were you last year?

    Do you even know how the organizational structure looks like with the current Jets?

    Maybe I missed it... which team-level decisions did he make?

    He is always involved in team decisions and constantly meddles. It's laughable that you think he doesn't interfere and takes a hands off approach. I'm still in a state of shock that he agreed to the rebuild. I'll be even more surprised if has the patience to stick with it for 2-3 more seasons. I'm almost positive that he will screw it up at some point. Either he'll order Mac to start trying to be as competitive as he can again and return to bringing in older FAs, or if Bowles shows no improvement, he'll stick with him, or do something to sabotage this working.

    He is a doofus. He's never worked a day in his life. He's a dilettante and has nothing else to do with his time but to meddle. Hopefully, being an ambassador will keep him so busy that he won't even have time to think about the Jets for a few years.

    1. Tebow
    2. Revis Pt 2
    3. Hiring Idzik and making him keep Rex
    4. Media obsessed owner; doesn't care about winning
    5. Tries to be involved in football decisions when he doesn't know football

    Need anymore?

    i would argue with 4, he has spent a lot of cash not to care about winning.

    I think it's all about the PSLs and keeping those fans in those seats. He wants the Jets on the backpages, not the Giants.

    That said, I think he was starting to learn after the Idzik issue. But this season will tell us how good of an owner Woody has potentially become.

    How about both Bowles AND Macc reporting straight to HIM? Or - no such thing as a 'chain of command'? Does that sound enough of a fuck-up for ya?

    Woody was the driving force behind Tebow, Revis post NE and Fitzpatrick part 2. All terrible decisions that hurt the franchise.

    Steelers have a similar chain of command. Then again the Steeler owners live and die football.

    Spot on.
    He prolly wants to win. But thinks he can actually have a say and contribute, and do things his way, and that's a disastrous idea. He has zero insight into athletics and football.
    Fuckin wannabe.

    Woody's biggest problem is he doesn't know what he doesn't know.
