    an new era; I don't think it has anything to do with today. A 6th pick can suck every year - not even make the team.

    Why? If Vernon is a idiot for wasting his millions, then no one should feel pity for him.

    Tired of people feeling bad for athletes who go broke...Fuck em' for not being smart about their money.

    BOL to him but I doubt he can make their team. The ship has sailed on Vernon. IMO with his physical talent and good speed they should have changed positions for Vern. I always thought he could have a future as a tight end. Guys with no experience but great physical attributes like college BB players like Antonio Gates have made it as TEs.

    I read the title and thought 'another shot' meant he was coming back to the jets :eek:

    If you're bad at managing your money it probably doesn't matter if you have $100 or $1,000,000. You'll make the same mistakes, just on a larger scale. There are often fees, maintenance costs and taxes associated with purchases that people don't consider. They take the price for face value and don't think about it.

    If it's for money, that's sad.

    But if it's because he thinks of himself as some kind of underdog who is going to give it his all in one last shot, it's cool to watch.

    I knew he was clueless when he went to see Lawrence Taylor to learn how to play LB. I think that was after year one...

    Hard to believe how useless he was for us. Not even a decent special teamer.

    Of course you do.....When you search the words "Fanboy" and "Homer" on google auto fill automatically enters "nyjunc" into the search cache

    Why not? The Jets continually gave Geno Smith and Mark Sanchez multiple chances after both resoundingly proved they couldn't perform at an even perfunctory level.
    Secondly, the Patriots and their fans never hesitate n'or feel nervous about 6th round picks. Interesting, don't you think?
    Just saying.

    Not sure what the Patriots 6th round draft pick has to do with anything.......Great Job ,you should consider entering the "Troll with the smallest penis" contest this weekend....I'm sure you would be the favorite to win it all

    This +1.
    I watch a lot of college & this kid dominated at Ohio St. His #s at the combine were off the charts. Someone in the JETS organization just failed the psychoanalysis aspect of the evaluation. From day 1 the guy was a quitter. Good riddance. Hope he's broke as he made me so damn mad.

    actually when you search "adult" nyjunc pops up not some jealous, whiny, sad, pathetic fan. why would anyone wish bad things upon the guy? b/c he didn't play well for our team? that is embarrassing.
