Last night's interview with Jets beat writer Randy Lange from the Bergen Record is now up at http://hosted.filefront.com/patchyfogg It's 54 commercial-free minutes of nothing but Jets talk, and is in MP3 format. I'm still in the process of typing up a "mini-transcript" of topics discussed, but don't let that stop you from downloading before I post that. As always, thanks for listening. And, please tell a Jets fan friend.

um is the CB postion just like you said Barrett, Dyson, Miller or did you just put their names down? What do you you think the CB postion will look like who will be #1 who will be #2 and who will be #3? what do you think patchyfogg?
He said that it can conceivably be 1 of 3 alignments of those names in the end. But, he clearly said that Barrett and Dyson were the 1st team yesterday.
Thanks, patchy. I'll give a listen right now. Satisfy my curiosity, will you? Does Randy Lange have about 50 odd teeth packed into that tremendous lunkhead of his? A normal adult human has 32 teeth (give or take), but I could swear that he's got something funny going on there. I...what? That's Randy Cross? Right. My mistake. Hehehe.
Thanks to everyone who has listened so far--and for the kind words. It's much appreciated. If you know anyone in the listening area, we're re-running it tonight at 10:05PM on LI's 90.3FM.
The interview was great, thanks. I had some trouble downloading it initially. I thought it was becasue the file is so big. So when I got it I used some software to compress that 45MB file down to about 2MB with no real noticable loss in sound quality. It may be a little easier to distribute that way. Let me know if you want it.
