    I do understand why you don't like my posts. The thing is, I write the way I think (I guess I am naturally pretentious). I'm sorry, but I am not smart enough (or so inclined) to find ways to dumb down my posts. Despite what you may think, I don't try to come up with exceptionally clever titles.....whatever comes to me first, is usually what I go with. However this thread was an exception. I was originally going to call it "10 Worst Moments in Jets History"....but since you made such a big deal yesterday about my last thread titles, I did actually spend some time trying to come up with the title that I thought would burn your ass the most.

    Somehow, I believe the "our level" you refer to is a pretty desolate place. There are plenty of people that post in their own unique style....Abyzmul, SundayJack and jetophile to name a few. Why should everyone be the same? That is boring. I am a normal fan....I just express myself in a different way than you. I'm sorry, but I have no intention of honoring your request. I'm gonna keep on doing what I do. And I'm sure you'll keep bitching about it.

    Sorry....didn't mean to be the first one to hold a mirror up to you.

    Let me just say that this was an excellent post. In a few paragraphs, you have almost summed up the experience of being a Jets fan. The only thing I would say is that I'd put the Dennis Byrd injury at the top of the list.

    I did think about that one, but it was hard to write something that wasn't totally depressing. I'm glad you did bring it up in this thread, though. Thanks.

    All of the undeserved NEGATIVE negativity in this thread has made me very....ANGRY.

    I think we can rename this thread Big Gay Al's Run At Ban-dom.

    Hey listen...as long as you understand you're a pretentious writer and that some people might find your style annoying, I am willing to drop this. It's not that you don't have some good ideas. It's only the way you choose to present those ideas I tend to have a problem with. I'm done with this, however. We're all Jets fans when all is said and done. So keep on writing, DeathByJets. And I'll probably keep READING. I just hope your future thoughts are constructed in a way I can tolerate a bit more. Peace to you....Al

    I feel like I just watched an episode of Scooby Doo, and the evil bad guy's mask was ripped off to reveal... The Joker and The Penguin?

    Those Batman crossovers always kicked ass.

    Ah, this is much much better now! Hmm, let's see...Learn that poem. LEARN IT.
    High up grew a daffodil
    I couldn't hardly reach'er
    Said I to me, I think I will
    get it for my teacher.

    I climbed to get the daffodil
    Out on a limb so thin
    I tumbled down
    Like Jack and Jill
    And skinned my little shin.
    -Brisbane, Little Rascals

    :lol: Haw! :lol:

    You know, whenever I watched the Little Rascals as a kid, I always felt like something perverted was going on.

    BTW, did you know that Alfalfa was shot to death in a hotel room in a murderous drugged-out rage?

    Here is a Little Rascals line for you:

    Mrs. Crabtree: Use "isthmus" in a sentance.

    Student (can't remember which one....maybe Jack): Isthmus be my lucky day!

    They can choke Artie, but they sure can't choke Stymie.

    I feel woozy...

    I can still see Simpson, down on one knee, catching that ball!

    That opening fumble by Harper was a killer! I remember Len Dawson saying, right before the kickoff, that the first team to score would win the game. Then Harper just pitches the ball to the Buffalo defender and he walks into the End Zone. As Charlie Brown would say: "UGH!" Or maybe Sam Kinison would be better: "AHHHH, AHHHH, AHHHHH!"

    Two good memories

    '82 Todd to Barkum to beat Miami 16-15. And the win in Buffalo in '98 to clinch our first division title since the merger.
