What's stupid about it? I used to receive my Christmas presents from Gorilla Monsoon and Wesley Walker.
Speaking of New England fans, my wife just surprised me with a trip to Boston for my birthday. We are flying there tomorrow morning. I'm wearing my Revis jersey on the plane, and packed some other Jet shirts in my suitcase. Probably not a good idea since I will be drinking heavily but I gotta show the flag.
You shouldn't respect the oppositions boards anyway. If all it takes is a couple of idiots posting stupid shit to get you to disrespect a board, don't read all the threads on here, you'll lose respect for this one too!
Don't be a disrespectful loudmouth prick and no one will bother you. Believe it or not, most of humanity could give a fuck what you wear.
In the 5 games against the Pats Sanchez has out performed Brady in 3 of them. The No. 2 QB in the Division is Sanchez and it's not even close. Sounds like sour grapes to me.
If I were doing the firing I would have fired Eric because he was supposed to be a defensive guru and the defense laid an egg VS inferior QB's all down the stretch of that season.... Not because a HOF QB who ignited the team and had them dreaming big got hurt. Especially when it wasn't Eric's decision to tie his career to Favre.
The QB cost us our season, the D was more than good enough to play deep into January. The QB killed us most of the year, we had the easiest sched we could possibly had but we watched our QB get outplayed in games by such stars like Jamarcus Russell, Tyler Thigpen, Shaun Hill, Seneca Wallace, ... Those QBs didn't play well either but they played better than the QB who "ignited the team"- unfortunately when he ignited our team the season went up in smoke.
Yeah, we'll always disagree and I layed it out in th past but, the Jets staff did a poor job with Brett... They bought into the media rage that "you must THROW when you have Favre" so, they go play a team like Oakland with the worst run D in the league and real good pass rush and secondary and decide to throw all day... Games like that, favre should have handed off all day and learned the offense more.... To me the whole season was just real bad coaching and Game planning... yet the team was still in the thick of it until Favre got hurt, all in spite of themselves..... Some of those QB's listed should have never succeded at all regardless of what the jets QB did. Outplay or not, those QB's should have had our Defense scoring on their own. Bottom line, those QB's succeeded and My HC who is a DEFENSE guy, couldn't stop them and was afraid to Blitz... So, knowing Favre is gone anyway. I fire Mangini and Bring in a REAL DEFENSIVE GUY Who Blitzes coming off the bus..... I switch from Mangini to THE MAD SCIENTIST FOR DEFENSE mostly - Not because of an injured retiring HOF QB who the front office made himplay. The Mad Scientist Blitzes those guys to Kingdom Come.... Mangenius gave those guys All day to sit there and pick him apart and frankly cost him his job!
Obviously the CS did a poor job as well but the problem I have w/ the favre injury is that he was hurt in october and he played his best football in November. I think it was the typical Favre excuse, he wasn't 100% but he was making poor decisions more than poor throws b/c of his elbow. The only game we won down the stretch we won b/c our defense scored late. The D was not very good but you should be able to beat Seattle when you hold them to 13 pts, you should be able to beat able to beat Oak when you hold them to 13 pts in regulation, you should be able to score more than 14 at SF, you shouldn't need a late TD to beat Cincy or a defensive TD to beat Buffalo. No matter we feel about favre, mangini or the trade itself it was the best thing to happen to this franchise b/c it led to Rex and Sanchez.
I don't belong to that particular Pats board so I have no idea what kind of justification people try to use, but I agree with this 100%, and I believe anyone who knows anything about football would as well.
Hey you, for a Pats fan you ain't so bad. Yu kno wut Ima sayin? Do you honestly believe that Brady will play for 10 more years, and if so how many of those 10 will be for the Pats? What's the general Pats fan consensus too?
"Waitasekent waitasekent!!! Eric Mangini is a classy guy. Very respektahble. That Rex Ryan fellow is a hooligahn and his team is a bunch of thugs. He should take a page outta duh Giants book. Dehy are uh classy orgahnizashun."
Thanks man. I think I just kind of look at things more objectively by nature. (Worked in journalism for about five years before getting out because I realized I'd be broke most of my life!) I don't think Brady will play for 10 more years. He'll be 34 this season, so that's just kind of a stretch in my mind. His game is most cerebral, but even that stuff tends to slip and slow down when you get a little older. (I'll be 39 in June so I'm right there, lol...) My guess is that he'll play out his 4-year contract with NE, sign on for one more season after that, and then maybe - and that's a big maybe - he'll go and play for a season or two for the 49ers. They were his favorite team growing up, and I can't really see him playing anywhere else just for the money. It sounds a little crazy I know, but I've lived through Montana, Gretzky, etc... never say never.
That would be crazy seeing him in a Niners uniform. With the way the Lions are being built, by that time they could just need a hired gun and get a ring.
They're gonna be tough for sure. Jury's still out on Stafford, but that defense is looking good... It was pretty odd seeing Montana in a Chiefs' uni too. Remember that?
