Cool...and i thought it was just me? I am a JETS and Toronto Maple Leaf fan, born in 1969, i have not seen any of my professional sports favorites win anything of importance...I was born in October, thus JoeWillie did not factor in my life .... so I continue to keep thinking that I am the curse. I too am a RUSH fan and they will eventually get in the R/R HOF, but i am sure i will be cold in my grave when that day happens. Keep your chin up DBJ, you are not alone. ps...anyone have any good lotto numbers?
As a Mets fan living in Philly, Jet fan, just entering college years for Michigan state, I thank you for your post DBJ.
at least it sounds like DBJ has the Sunday ticket. If I had the Sunday ticket as I stated in the NFL forum, I wouldn't need a favorite team! I really think I like football enough, judging from my dedication to watching college games on Saturday and how I look forward to watching the non Jets games, I honestly think I am ready to not have a favorite team!. And the best part of it is that, with the sunday ticket, I/you/we can still be Jets fans, but get to see good football games at the same time! instead of just being a loserholic!
In this spirit, I suggest that it is time to update SOJ (Same Old Jets) to AJD (Another Jets Debacle). Who's with me?
Ah, the Spartans. Another football team that pulls the same stupid crap every year. Yes, we are very fortunate to be fans of these 2 teams!! Michigan is to MSU as the Pats are to the Jets.
I have a disease and they don't know what to call it, betta hide ya wallet Comin' up quick to strip yo cash, bought a ticket to ya concert to come and whip yo ass Bitch I'm comin' out swingin' so fast that I make yo eyes spin...
The 12 steps that have always worked for me when the Jets were disappointing: 1. Promise to mow the lawn on Friday but put it off until Sunday. 2. Eat a nice big breakfast Sunday morning, pancakes, eggs, bacon, the works. 3. Start drinking Bloody Mary's at breakfast and get half in the bag before the pregame show. 4. Nap through the pregame show listening carefully in my sleep and wake up when Boomer's name is mentioned for the third time. It's about to be kickoff time! 5. Go to the garage and pick my poison for the day. It's mostly been Sam Adams lately but Corona gets in there now and then. 6. Watch the first Jet's drive and marvel at how they actually look like an offense in that drive most of the time. It'll be the last time all day that they're taking any chances so I drink it all in. 7. At the first quarter break go to the garage again and refill on beer. Stare at the lawnmower sitting there and waiting for me to take it for a walk. 8. The second quarter is when a team that is going to beat the Jets usually grabs the reins and does it. I finish up my beer during the quarter and decide to mow the lawn at half time. 9. Half-time, outside mowing and bitching about same ol' jets. 10. Come back in with 8 minutes gone in the third quarter. Nope it ain't gotten any better. It never does since Vinny lost it. 11. Back to the garage for more beer. 12. Passed out snoring on the couch by the middle of the 4th quarter. I'll get the final score on ESPN later. The nice thing about Loserholism is that it lets you graduate to Alchoholism smoothly.
I just don't believe people who say...oh I used to be a fan of them, now I root for this team. That is called a bandwagon jumper. My words are not law, but as much as I bitch, I am still a Jets fan and have been for 24 years. I have seem some terrible years from this team.
