    The engines have been disabled due to F.O.D. (Foreign Object Damage) A very real term that so applies to this situation. What a flippin' mess.

    That phrase never meant what it was supposed to translate to from where I'm sitting. I took it to mean cut your own brake lines, gun the car 90 miles an hour into a ravine, die. o_O

    The motto of the Jets Fan -
    All gas and heartburn … no breaks.

    All gas no brakes loosely translated means "3 - 14 record in the division so far over 3 seasons".
    At best, it'd be 4-14 over 3 seasons if the Jets beat the Pats; otherwise it'll be 3-15 over 3 seasons. I can't think of any HC/GM combination that's ever assembled anything near to that awful over such an extended time and retained their jobs.
