    Maybe it's the Harvard School of Small Engine Repair.

    IIRC it was down to either Woody or Dolan at that point, still not finalized. But regardless--BB looked at those two and said "Nope."

    He had his golden ticket. That's as Harvard as it gets.

    Exactly!! That was my initial reaction as well

    Schools like that, grades only matter if you are middle class…if you have enough money and a name, grades or other qualifications don’t matter one single bit.

    Have you seen the lack of quality in the professors and staff at these woke elitist colleges? Harvard and this moron kid deserve each other.

    I'm glad I gave up my season tix a few years ago and have lost whatever fan feelings I've had over many many years. Fuck Woody and Fuck his kids. I will never ever step foot in that stadium again until he sells the team.

    I just want to watch good football now, don't really root for any team anymore.

    At least the game still has good teams that do things right, unlike the NBA. I haven't gone to an NBA game in 15 years and will never go or watch a game again. Their game is ruined. Maybe Woody should sell the team and buy an NBA franchise, he fits right in with those loser owners.

    Every time you think it can't get more ridiculous it does.

    Whether or not this story is 100% credible is completely irrelevant. It's damning even if only 20% of it is true.

    Guys, frankly I am a bit disappointed no one checked the source. My first though it's Russini at work again, and sure enough, it was. Stop believing this bullshit for fuck's sake. His was deep in negations about to get the deal done, and Woody came to him and changed his mid because his kid told him Madden rating was low? So then JD was forced to turn around and draft Corley - you know the 4th rated WR on his board ahead of Brian Thomas.

    Even Jeudy just came out and said it is fake news. Know your sources guys (what's up JD). Russini has been trying to do damage to this organization for some time now. I just wish fans were not buying her bullshit. Like when Woody wanted to bench Rodgers. Nonsense bullshit reporting using "unnamed sources" (hey JD). Stop believing every bullshit you read.

    It's damaging even if not true, and it is not. Jeudy actually denied it just now. I hate this fucking bitch Russini and her source (how is it going JD). This garbage article only hurts the Jets in their GM search. It hurts the Jets fans too since we need to get the right GM here. What a fucking bitch.

    Stop attacking the messenger. A team spokesman confirmed some of the report, and the instagram of the harvard kid corroborates some of the story anyway

    Is it really that hard to believe this stuff? We've arguably been the worst-run franchise of any team in any of the 4 major sports over the last 15 years.

    I don't doubt that some of this is JD covering his own ass, but a lot of it lines up with how dysfunctional this team has been. That doesn't mean I don't fault JD - he played a large role in how bad we've been - but two things can be true at once. JD was a bad GM and Woody is one of the worst owners in sports.

    Yeah, the team spokesperson responded to the Mike White thing by saying "Woody apologized to Mike." The team spokesperson didn't even deny that the insult happened in the first place!

    Btw guys, note this from the article: "Johnson suggested benching Rodgers due to poor performancea Jets spokesperson said the owner was “being provocative. He made the statement in jest to see how it would be handled.”"

    So, according to her, Jets had a spokesperson confirm this. Spokesperson. That means it is official. Now if this is official spokesperson, we would hear it elsewhere right? Wrong! So, who was the spokesperson? Let me take a guess that it starts with J and ends with D.

    LOL. Spokesperson confirmed my fucking ass. Only she knows that "spokesperson", right (howdy JD)?

    At first she reported that being "one source who attended the meeting indicated that it was "said in jest in a provocative nature." ". https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id...owner-proposed-benching-aaron-rodgers-sept-30

    Now "one source" has been upgraded to spokesperson. This is laughable. Come on guys, a little common sense please. Btw, there bridge in Brooklyn I can sell for a good price if you are interested.

    Yeah, Woody sucks, but you don't have to swallow every bullshit you hear about him.

    Spokesperson who? Come on - it's the same BS source that now has been upgraded from "someone who was at the meeting" to "spokesperson". Did you actually hear this reported from actual Jets spokesperson or anyone else for that matter but Russini? Listen, I get it, thinking is overrated, Woody is a dumbass. But Russini is making shit up to ultimately hurt us Jets fans, and we are blindly believing this.

    Yes, he sucks. But there is also a lot of shit she is making up to hurt the Jets and us fans. The most juiciest parts are made up. The reality is that he did not interfere until now. And frankly he SHOULD have interfered after 6 years on JD's incompetence. So I do believe he fired Saleh, finished Adams trade, and got Reddick to report. This was reported by multiple folks, and frankly these are not bad moves.

    But Madden bullshit, benching Rodgers - come on now. The Rodgers one is so obvious too. And at first she reported "someone who was at the meeting confirmed it", then changed it to "spokesperson" so that people think her story is confirmed by the Jets.

    Listen, yes multiple things can be true: Woody sucks, JD sucks, and Russini is full of shit.
