He is still a cheater and will carry that label for the rest of his career and after. I would rather wait and win it with someone that does not have that stigma and please stop with telling the rest of that we would want him. The poll says otherwise.
Junc, Rexandthecity, PCLfan are the 3 that I think voted yes I know I made the poll private but all three have already expressed that opinion
If a headline tomorrow read "Breaking News: Patriots trade Brady to Jets for late round pick" do you honestly think people here would be furious? That's not a rhetorical question, I honestly want opinions on it. I think once the guy is here the narrative completely shifts.
No. When the Jets finally lift the VLT, I don't want anybody saying it was because we brought in some patriots cast-offs. Honestly, if he were let go, I'd rather he go win a SB with Buffalo or Miami than come here. When we win it, want to enjoy watching the game, not hate watching it.
I understand where all of you guys come from and it sways me a little bit, but in my mind a super bowl is a super bowl. Obviously I'd rather win it with 100% drafted, home grown players but IMO it wouldn't be different than if we would have won it with Favre in 2008.
That is what this thread is asking and a pretty solid majority have let it be known he would not be welcomed. As a fan of 40 plus years I would be very unhappy with management if they brought him in.
When all was said and done (and in all seriousness) what Jet fans were actually going to lose a minute of sleep over whether or not Brady was going to be suspended? Besides, these harmless pie-in-the-face salvos being tossed NE's way are mostly just for the hell of it - it's fun to take shots at Kraft and BB & co. Things should start to settle down next week with the beginning of mini-camps: - May 19-21; May 26-28; June 1-4, and mandatory mini camp June 9-11. Until then, bombs away..
Farve winning it in 2008 would have been fine or homegrown players winning it would be fine. I don't care if the missing piece comes from a rival just as long as that missing piece is not a cheating, lying piece.
I mean, I'd take Brady in a heartbeat, but would never be ok with Belichek. You can tell me I'm not a Jet fan all you want, but if we signed Brady, you guys would be ecstatic. He's a good QB, significantly better than anything we've ever had.
I'd take Brady over Jameis Winston. On or off the field. I don't think you'd ever see Brady here. I could see him going to the 49ers. His dad was a season ticket holder. I'd take Belichick, too. These guys are not ax murderers. All time great coach.
It would break my heart to be honest. I became a fan of the Jets because of Curtis Martin and he played the game the right way. To win by cheating to stain the Jets forever. It would go against what I've rooted for my entire life.
It's fine that integrity is nothing to you but stop trying to pull everyone down to your level with the "you guys would be ecstatic" bullshit
The poll says that we win the SB by bringing them in. Why vote no? You are so spiteful that you would rather lose than win an SB with BB?
