    I've always liked Cumberland, but the more I read on here, the more I feel like I've overrated him or something.

    I think he's pretty agile for a guy his size and build. Apparently, his blocking isn't good, which seems to be Sudfeld's issue too. I'm not sure who, if any, of the three is the odd man out (obviously, Amaro won't be "out," but I mean who is the guy who won't be seeing the field).

    I don't think I've heard a single mention of Cumberland which is disappointing. I figured Amaro would have trouble transitioning. His highlight reel never jumped out at me and I was wary of the pick (I swear this isn't just hindsight 20/20 with what's going on at camp). So I was hoping Cumberland would really improve this season. I was happy to see he re-signed and figured he could put up more games like he did against the Falcons and Pats last year with another year as a starter. Still hope that's true. I think he's a really important player for the offense because the TE could be a complete void if he doesn't show up.

    Wyckoff Bakery closed over a decade ago. Aldo's is great but I'm not sure how much they had to do with the closing.

    My father-in-law built Interstate and just did the move of Lotito's a few doors down so he'd know if anything nefarious went on. Wyckoff Bakery has been there for at least 5 years.

    Demario Davis has been teh awesome.

    It "pork roll" north of Monmouth county, from about Neptune and "Taylor ham" south of that. Funny you talk I about it, about 3 weeks ago one of the local evening rush talk shows devoted whole hour to it.

    I know right? The crust has a slightly sweet taste and the cheese is a blend of Cheddar and White American.

    Cumberland is fast. He's a converted wide receiver. Good hands and fast. Good routes. Not a natural born blocker. At this point he's probably our best TE, however none of them can block worth a shit.

    Thank you guys for the camp updates. I've been driving all over and haven't had a chance to get caught up till now.

    For anyone still confused, here's a link to the Wikipedia article on pork rolls.

    http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pork_roll

    "Dos not meet guidelines to be called ham."
    Most entertaining.

    The thing is, Amaro is also basically a converted wide receiver- he played mostly in the slot. And Sudfeld is relatively new to football in general, which is why he went undrafted.

    The Jets seem to be looking for a great pass catching TE, and are prioritizing that over guys who can block effectively. Hopefully they'll improve their blocking skills this offseason, but I think Amaro will be eased into the league with only a few simplified plays and red zone packages in his rookie year- at least for the first month or two.

    Cumberland will be decent for right now, and maybe Sudfeld will emerge, but I see Amaro and Sudfeld as having the most long term potential.

    Yuck. We don't use those pork discs on Long Island. We use Boar's Head ham and real cheddar cheese.

    American cheese on pizza!? That sounds horrible.

    We'll probably be seeing all three, but less of Amaro, if he is still struggling to learn everything. Cumberland can play for sure, so it's between Sudfeld and Amaro- I think Sudfeld looks better right now so he projects to get more game snaps.

    I have found it all over Florida, even in my small town on the Gulf coast. Most down here that have it, I have found they call it Taylor Ham rather than pork roll. Personally I go for thick crunchy hickory smoked bacon over ham on my egg and cheese on a roll.

    I haven't read much on Cumberland so far during camp but still think he will be a solid role player and relatively important part of the offense. With Amaro, Cumby and Sudfeld I think the TE's are pretty solid from a receiving standpoint and once Amaro picks up the playbook a little better, then can really excel. Pantale is a wildcard for the #3 TE position over Sudfeld if only because I think he is probably the best blocking TE out of all 4.

    This is just plain wrong in so many ways. The picture seems to show little dingleberries of sausage instead of slices. Slightly sweet crust? I didn't ask for a freakin' danish!
    Cheddar cheese? No, no, no - nobody ordered fondue. American cheese is for hamburgers, grilled cheese and mac n cheese. Who decided this thing should be called pizza? Where the hell are we, Kansas?

    The real question here is:

    What type of egg sandwich will Geno eat on the sidelines during blowouts?

    The offense goes as Geno goes, if he can't improve that will severely limit our running attack.
    Pizza is too broad of a topic for my head to get into. I have at least 25 pizzerias within a 10 min drive (Long Branch area).

    I'm not really concerned about Amaro and his drops. Everyone has a shitty day at work sometimes. As long as it doesn't snowball into consecutive poor performances I think it will all be fine.


    On a pizza related note, obviously Hawaiians put pineapple in pizza as a test to see which white people were trustworthy. Example: this guy loves it.

    Does anyone know if the Green and White scrimmage is live online somewhere to stream?

    Never had cameras for it, but I think ESPN NY has done broadcasts for it before. If anyone's gonna have it I'd think it'd be SNY.

    There must be some cameras because you can watch the highlights of it after its over. I've seen that.

    Right but I think they're all Eric Allen/in-house nyjets.com. Or have been in the past at least.

    Radio coverage confirmed - 6:00 to 9:00 PM on ESPN NY: http://espn.go.com/new-york/radio/schedule

    Thanks man!
