I know we have a sticky for this but, As Per Braylon's twitter.. http://twitter.com/#!/OfficialBraylon I just heard the most inspirational message of my life from former jet Dennis Byrd, who suffered a career ending neck injury. As God is my witness I have never been more ready to perform in my life. Dennis Byrd I respect, salute, and honor you Lets go!! ats_suck:
One #Jets player on Dennis Byrd speech tonight: said he would trade everything for one more game and we have one and take advantage of it! Awesome.
Wow... all I can say about Rex pulling D Byrd out is fucking amazing. I was at that game and still shudder when I think about it.
I wonder how many players remember Dennis Byrd? Probably none. Could backfire and just bum them out...
will never forget that game and him hitting mersereau. great idea by rex. he really does think this is the biggest game since 1969. he is definitely going for it all this week.
Same here, vs KC...hitt Scott right in his chest and just fell...I remember as if it was last month..
I wouldn't want to be reminded about my own mortality on the eve of a big game. Just sayin'. You're probably right though, they won't even give it a second thought.
I have a Dennis Byrd jersey, I was wearing it the day it happend. I am to fat to wear it anymore but I hang up all my old jerseys before the game last week. Fourth quarter comes and me and my friend get all superstitous, one of the things we do, take the Byrd Jersey off the hanger and put it on my friends 15 year old son and he keeps on for the rest of the game. After the game, its gets hung back up where it was and we tell the kid he's wearing the jersey for the Pats game. True story, he's gonna wear in Dallas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
