    A nice humble kid …. No matter where his career takes him he will remember that play for the rest of his life …

    Gotta feel good for guy. Went undrafted, made the team, and pulled a rabbit out of a hat in a critical spot. That's what you get for having a dream and being hungry. Good on him.

    That winning kick return by X is quite amazing... patient... throttling his speed... letting his blockers do their job.
    Knew enough to take on the punter head on and cut inside for the score.

    Exactly why I said to get this kid the ball out in space... he's sneaky fast and knows how to juke like a wild rabbit.

    Well, I always bring up all of the shitty you can't make it up stats and flubs that the Jets are always good for. However . . . drumroll . . . Gipson's play was just the third punt return TD in overtime in NFL history. How about that? Something good for a change. o_O

    I liked when Xavier Gipson said, "I feel like I was dreaming." It's Friday, and I still feel like I'm dreaming. Did the Jets still lose the game somehow? Oh, Jeez, whew.



    I saw one from a different angle that was much better than this and I actually lost the guy, hahahaha.

    "Have you ever had an experience like that?" "No." What kind of question is that? ==> "Yeah, I've had this experience hundreds of times and it never gets old." o_O
