    Hey guys-
    I am one of those people who log on everyday and enjoy reading everyones posts and get majority of my Jets information from this site, but rarely post my comments. However, I felt it would be a good idea to post this as I know some of you will like it:

    I live down here in Alpharetta, Georgia. We moved from Long Island about 15 years ago. Anyway, my dad calls me at work the other day and says tells me how he found this dog walking in the middle of the road in his neighborhood and he picks it up so it won't get hit. To make a long story short, his neighbor told him he regonized the dog and told which house it belongs to....

    so my dad rings the doorbell and out walks Victor Green. My dad told him how much of a fan I am of the Jets and Victor gave him all of these photos of him and signed everyone of them. I am going to send him a thank you card and hopefully when I am in my dads part of town, I will stop by Victors place. anyways...just thought I would tell that story.

    Great site guys!!! Lets hope this new regime is the real thing.

    I remember in 98 against the panthers at home (my first Jet game) Victor Green had two interceptions.

    Is Doc Rivers still part owner of jock and jills? I use to go there everytime i was in town for business between 1992 - 1996. I always stayed downtown and I believe the restaurant was on peachtree and 10th. Great Wings!
