    I'm watching the NFL network rebroadcast of the Jets/Eagles game on TiVO. Look, I understand advertising and things like selling stadium naming rights, but why on God's green Earth do the Jets have to play that annoying PC Richard's whistle. I can't even figure out what it means relative to the game.

    First of all, no one outside of the NY area has any idea what that whistle means or what PC Richards is (what do other teams' fans think when they hear it) . Second, why would we play that sound...it isn't intimidating (at least the Panthers play a Panther roar on 3rd down). It just bugs the crap out of me.

    but it's another buy from pc richards man.

    It could be worse. It could be;
    "Head ON! Apply directly to your head!"
    "Head ON! Apply directly to your head!"
    "Head ON! Apply directly to your head!"

    from the makers of Headon, it's;
    "Activeon! Apply directly to the Pain!"
    "Activeon! Apply directly to the Pain!"
    "Activeon! Apply directly to the Pain!"

    Count our blessings that it's just a stoopid whistle.

    Why do commercials like that three times in a row?!

    I don't think the city would appreciate if we played the sound of a Jet going over the stadium or something...

    I like the whistle too. Its a good jingle.

    Jets games without the PC Richard & Sons whistle would be like Mets games without the planes flying overhead.

    I know no one goes to Devils games -- but if you did -- youd know that they are the worst.

    In order to distract you from the fact that there are 4 thousand people in the building -- they blare music at Mangini levels at every whistle. Every single one. Forget about talking to the person next to you during a tv timeout -- youll have to wait for the game to start to do that.

    I HATE that commercial. Drives me crazy after Wheel Of Fortune.

    Head on!
    Apply directly to the forehead.
    Head on!
    Apply directly to the forehead.
    Head on!
    Apply directly to the forehead.

    It's like subliminal advertising, except it makes me want to shove the product up the maker's collective @$$es...

    I hate the PC Richards whistle too.... I think I'd rather drive a nail into my eyeball than listen to that 100 times at every game.

    :rofl:

    Tell him "Perhaps it's left open to interpretation!"

    As far as the PC Richard's whistle, I have only been to a handful of Jets games, so it never really had a chance to get on my nerves. I can see it driving someone batty after a few weeks though.

    I like the whistle its so random but I do like the idea of doing a really loud Jet sound and maybe some how make the whole stadium vibrate so you really get that Jet flying over head feel.
