    Rod Smart. I always liked to think that he filched that from 'The Bride of Frankenstein', one of my favorite cinematic masterpieces of all time. "She hate me, like others . . ."

    Not for nuthin', but I have to back track and give some love to #25, Joe McKnight. What a sick, unnecessary tragedy. RIP.

    Besides Blake Spence's blocked punt, Steve Tannen blocked the last punt 47 years ago

    So we've only had 3 blocked punts since the Titans became the Jets including McKnight? Holy Crap.

    ^Yep, just Billy Joe. But, yeah, big time. There are tons of them. My boss named her rescue dog Jo Jo years back. "Jo Jo Townsell!" "Who?" "Oh, nevermind." Clark Gaines, another great one, how could you not love THAT? And now, since it's after midnight, #22, Burgess Owens, who is also on the Jets great football name list . . .

    "During his rookie season, Burgess Owens returned a kickoff for 82 yards for a touchdown against the Denver Broncos on October 28th, 1973. This was the Jets only TD scored on a kickoff return during the 1970s." THE ENTIRE 1970s?! What the f'ing F?! matt, please tell this is wrong. Holy Hell, FML.

    I've said it before. It was odd how he started out so strong and then flamed out.

    Yes and he was an animal, an oldtime wedgebuster on the kickoff coverage

    The Buccaneers came into the NFL in 1976. Their first punt return for a TD was 1994. Their first kickoff return for a TD was 2007.

    matt I am amazed at your ability to remember players over the years

    as to the game at hand. Here is another number 22, Justin Miller. He was a very disappointing cornerback (thanks Badway) but he was a damn good kick returner
