Sorry for the extra thread, but if anyone wants to send messages along to Sanchez, please post them here. Just got off the phone with a close family friend through whom I've gotten to meet him a few times. She and her husband are on their way to his draft party right now, and they speak weekly. I told her I'd pass on some messages for him from Jets fans. Post away.
Tell him that alot of people with no knowledge of the game are going to say he sucks every time he makes a mistake, so he should ignore everything except what his coaches say, and laugh at all other opinions as if they were spoken by retards.
I already told Sherry to pass that one on. I talked to her husband, Mike, first. I said "Let me know if you need help transitioning to becoming a Jets fan." His response? "Never happen. Da Bears for life."
You're a leader. learn the system, stay confident, and you'll thrive here. never let the media get to you, they aren't very intelligent. I know you can change the Jets culture, Mark - welcome home.
He is at a level in his sport where, hopefully, nobody will get to him.....and it seems like Schotty is a guy that players get along with....he should know we are excited to see what we can do.
Yep. The false rape accusations were a big wake up call to him, and he's had his head well screwed on ever since. He's always been a great kid, but that was instant maturity.
Tell him to get Favre's phone number and talk to him. There could be a be a very similar media storm surrounding him. Work hard, don't bring handguns into nightclubs while wearing sweatpants and work to gain the confidence of his teammates.
I hope you are worth the money and draft picks - we really need a q/b and I pray it all works out well, for all our sakes!!!
