call me a bad fan. But i wasnt able to get out there today. There was 18 inches of snow outside impossible to make it there by 1 for the game. I got up at 7 am started shoveling. If the JETS and the NFL cared about the fans they would have started the game at 4:15 just like Baltimore and philly. If the game was at 4:15 I wouldve went, and I think more people wouldve came also. I ate my tickets today. But who are you to critize the fans that didnt go? Im sorry I didnt feel like rushing out there to make it to the game on time. Im happy I didnt go, because I didnt have to deal with the traffic coming home after a loss like this.
Anyone could've gone for FREE today, so what you just said is complete bullshit. Everyone on this board knows on a day like this tickets are given away in the parking lot for next to nothing...or nothing! No takers at face value ($80 each) means all of you complaining about the crowd need to just shut up. Here's your opportunity to go show us horrible fans how to be "real fans", from great seats! I guess if no one takes me up on the offer, then we're done with these ridiculous "the fans suck" threads, right? Offer still stands. I'm sure some delusional person on Ebay will pay just to see the final game at GS because they think that's somehow important. I certainly won't be there though.
once again, i criticize because many of you are crying like bitches about how the team shit the bed when you didnt bother to go and support them. thats like the pot calling the kettle black. "i knew they were gonna blow it like they always do" is a pussy excuse. like i said im not talking shit about anyone who tried to get there but couldnt because of the roads or traffic. but to say you just didnt feel like going because it was cold or you knew they would lose is fucking ridiculous. pretty much everyone on the east coast got hit by the same storm yet there were still fans that managed to make it. i salute you. like i said before my statement that the game was on the fans was hyperbole but i cant stand to listen to some of these people talk out of their asses about how the defense or sanchez lost the game for us.
I was determined to make it today. My plan was to take the lirr since there was no way to get my car out of an unplowed neighborhood without crashing six times. I live walking distance from the train station and was bummed out when i heard there was service delays/no trains running in time for me to make it for kickoff thus stopping me and four other people from going there. It was just a bad situation from the start. I was hoping for a 415 start but now i realize more then ever that not only does god hate jet fans the NFL and woody does as well.
yeah well when we win everyone is talking about how were gonna run the table and make it into the playoffs. then we lose a game that we dominated for 99% and ultimatley lost because of special teams errors and everyone feels a need to make "SOJ", "bench sanchez", and "this team is horrible" threads. well this thread is to say FUCK YOU to all those fans. p.s. many other teams fans dont give a shit about how bad their team is. kc and cleveland have sucked for years but they still pack their stadiums. that is the mark of a true fan, supporting your team no matter whether they win or lose.
Welcome to the world of being a sports fan. If you think it is exclusive to Jets fans then I guess you have never wandered onto another team's forum. No one is forcing you to read those threads. Don't you find it ironic that you made a pointless thread to bitch about other people making pointless threads? If you "don't give a shit how bad your team is", then you have no fucking business being a sports fan. If KC or Cleveland fans jumped off a bridge, would you? I wasn't aware that you were in charge of deciding what constitutes a true fan. Thanks for that.
I had tickets but didnt go cause it was too cold. I have no excuse, other than I wanted to watch on my 50 inch and 73 degree temps instead of being out in 18 degree with swirling winds. Looks like I made the right choice too. J E T S BLOW SUCK ASS
So the fans, who paid good money for their tickets but chose not to entertain this charade for one more week, are the reason this franchise is an eternal joke??
I'm still trying to figure out shy the Jets lost because of their fan base. Did the fact that the stadium was less than full after 2 feet of snow cause the team to leace points on the board? If the stadium had bee fill would they have been successful of the FG tries? What exactly have the Jets done in the laat 40 years to start complaining about the fanbase?
As a marketing professor I'm very proud of what the NFL guys have done. If I buy a shitty car and it lets me down time and time again, my freinds would never encourage me to buy another one. But in the NFL, a team like the Jets can produce a horrific product year after year, and I'm the asshole if I don't buy? LOL now THAT's marketing. Or maybe a sucker really IS born every minute.
Oh I can't wait. I'm anxiously awaiting what new and exciting ways we can shoot ourselves in the foot.
He's right, and all your excuses are bullshit , KC and Cleveland fans pack their stadiums and they suck we have a decent team that plays competitive football. I mean come on "jump off bridge" how old are you bro? I'm tight too I go to one jet game a year with my dad cause that's all we can afford , so when all these yuppies with the privilege of owing season tickets don't show up pisses me off . Just cause we are a second rate franchise doesn't mean we need second rate fans that leave the stadium half empty And clearly he gives a shit or else he wouldn't make a thread of be on a jets fan site your an asshole dude let the dude vent on what bothering him, no need for you to play thread police and chime in with your condescending remarks
no but if the fans don't give a shit why would the players? make the trip to a raiders game no wonder why jamarcus russel is indifferent i wouldn't give a shit either if no one was paying attention
Oooh...Ooooh...I know. I know! Because they get paid big, big money? Am I right? What do I win? Free tickets to a Jets game? No thanks. They suck.
It was an embarrassment, we get better crowds for preseason games. The weather was fine, the roads were fine. Pathetivc job by the fans but those of us that showed up deserved a W and we didn't get it.
There was no excuse for most fans for not making the game. I came from Merrick, LI, I shoveled from 6:00 to 9:00 to get my car out. The main roads were fine. If a Jet fan wanted to make it, he could have . But WHY ???? This team continues to disappoint , so why make the effort ?
Who are you?? You and your father will go sit through garbage. Fantastic. I commend you. That doesn't mean everyone else has to have that same mentality. Did you ever stop to think that maybe, just maybe, for some of these fans it is a way of sending Woody and the rest of this organization a message that they are fed up with the bullshit? So cleary he gives a shit by making a thread saying how we as fans shouldn't give a shit how bad our team is? You have the mental capacity of a pinworm. Who are you again?
