    RICHARD AND WALT IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT. The American version of oranges and lemons go the bells of St Clement's. I'm not even champ, but :mad: Then The Three Days of The Condor a/k/a The Matt Robinson Incident. Then Kenny. Pretty soon I'm going to break out in a full body rash. Dr.: "What does it look like?" Me: "I can't really explain it, but I'll try. It looks like :mad::mad::mad:!" Dr.: ":eek:! Take three :confused::confused::confused: and call me in the :mad:!"

    Geez dont speak for me He held the ball way, way way to long in my opinion he seemed to never gets the idea to just throw the ball away. His delivery was to slow as well & he would aimed the throw allowing the defenders to get to the ball. Oh after JWN I guess every QB basically stunk which is why we have nothing since 1969:mad:

    . .Really? vvvvv


    Window dressing (touchdowns/big plays) are what puts fannies in the seats and that's all well and good but at the same time there's the nuts & bolts reality of 'decision-making' that goes into successful QB play. . Taking a sack puts you further behind the 8-ball....so when in doubt, throw it out . and as a result have a more manageable down-and-distance. . . It may not be 'big play' sexy, .but it's "live to fight another day" smart. . A deer frozen in the headlights gets hit - sometimes the 'big play' is knowing when .to avoid the big loss.. . . ....ya effin' limey son-of-a-bitch (j/k) :)

    He had an arm similar to Phil Sims and the mobility of the statue of David that can be seen in Florence. He was good enough to give you hope and bad enough to crush your soul.

    Are you hard of reading?

    The signature was already in place before today my man, I did just try to explain that to you in the previous post.

    As for the rest are you talking to NOW me or the 11 year old boy me that liked O'Brien back in 84?

    If it is the former it is a little condescending as the 48yo me understands the term happy feet and the concept of throwing it away before getting sacked but if it is the latter you are way too late for that young boy to care.

    And as for taking it seriously, you are upping the ante for sure. :rolleyes:

    It was after this that the Jets decided that they needed to have a "shut down defense", like the 85-86 Bears, to win. We haven't seen them abandon this belief yet.

    He made Vinny look quick in comparison. He did throw a beautiful deep ball but it was painful to watch him at times. He was literally a sitting duck.

    Oh fuck off you idiot, I am sure you have already gone down this road before in previous arguments.

    An 11yo me could hardly afford to fly from the UK for a Sunday game and make it back in time for school.

    Once again you just make yourself look like the imbecilic c*nt you are.

    So why are you on this loser teams fan forum again?

    We are all still waiting to hear why, as it certainly isn't bringing any pleasure into your life, I mean why would it, as they haven't been successful since January 12th, 1969 after all.

    Also, why did you quote my reply to another person with this pile of drivel?

    Love all the stories and responses in this thread. I plan on watching more 80's Jets stuff in the upcoming weeks. Thank you to all involved. It is what makes TGG so great! :)

    Throw in a few bonus mini skirmishes between @K'OB and @championjets69 for fun? Sure, why not? :D:mad::mad::mad:

    Ken's biggest problem was his brain dead coach, picking his nose all game on the sideline
