    Man I thought I was hardcore pulling a 13 hour workday on only 4 hours of sleep but you kick my ass.

    Ugh, can I go home yet?

    Thankfully no more sleep deprivation until the Bungles Thursday night game.

    Wow! I never thought about UK fans before and how tough it must be on them.

    I have a shameful confession: I went to bed during the 3rd quarter when the score was 12-0. In my defense ... I had a energy draining day on Monday. I went kayaking at the river for about 1/2 a day and then when I got home my wife talked me into a 3 mile run. I was pooped!

    +1. On about 4 hours. I was home but I was on Jets overload between the post game TV shows, the radio shows, and on the usual web sites sucking in all the Jets glory I can.

    This team is on a fucking roll. If Revis gets healthy we definitely can get to Dallas.

    Tired as hell, but well worth it.

    35 mins of sleep is a cocktease. I would've woke up grumpier than I was before i went to sleep. But to each is own. Glad u stuck it out with us in the states. I raise my coffee cup to u.

    I had to have something just to tell myself...its okay you slept!!

    I feel shocking now but at 5.30pm when the replay is on and the cold one is in my hand it will be okay!!

    I am proud to be part of ganggreen and the moments I have had such as 5.26am dancing around silently cheering as Lowery walked the int in!!! Its a crazy world!!

    I had to be up for work at 6.15, so with the game finishing at 5.30ish, I decided that a power nap would only make me feel worse. Therefore, I have now been awake for approximately 33 hours. My eyes are like piss holes in the snow. I think i've got through about 6 pints of tea at work so far today!
    What is it with MNF and Lightning?

    "Game delayed by tsunami - kick-off at 10.15pm. Please head to concourses"

    It's a fair point, at that stage, you might as well just stay up. You will sleep good tonight I guess.

    Did anyone else go to sleep replaying parts of the game in your mind?

    Got to bed at 6:30 this morning, not bad for someone who'd been up since 5:30 the previous morning :up: Nearly drifted twice when the Ads came on.....log fire, comfy sofa...feeeeling sleeepy , oh so sleeepy.....BING! Back in the room for more action.
    Wouldn't have missed this for the world.
    Tell you what, my heart was beating as hard as it could in the last 4 mins.
    Totally exhausted now.
