    post after post:
    can/will ZW make the leap
    becton????
    How many games will they win
    Is JD/Saleh on the hot seat
    all about the draft, which by now was ages ago


    and to think i have contributed to this.

    Ah well, rookie weekend, maybe a few pics, then some time to digest, then OTA, then minicamp.

    Can't watch baseball...far too many games in my lifetime.
    cant watch basketball...far too many games in my lifetime
    maybe a smattering of NHL.
    crappy spring weather.

    happy mother's day to my daughter and daughter-in-law.

    We have the schedule coming out next Thursday. I will guess two primetime games for the Jets. They are a big market team that on paper is trending up. Remember when the Jets went to back to back AFCCG with Rex. The following year they had a ton of primetime games. As for a guess for the opener I will say week 1 Dolphins at Jets Sunday at 1:00

    Sign me up for that opener. If we have to open against a division team, I prefer miami.

    This off-season has been a once in a lifetime off-season. So exciting with the buildup into FA, an amazing giant Xmas tree full of FA presents and then a draft with essentially 4 first round picks and a Ruckert thrown in. All the downtime between now and camp is going to be hard after the last few months.

    This used to be the worst time of year for me before Covid. Now I just blink my eyes and it's August. Thanks Bill Gates!

    I hear you. This is the time I focus my time to eating healthy, exercising and getting ready for my annual trip to my home country Turkey.

    Also since I am from Turkey, I am a huge soccer fan and I have sports to keep me entertained until June. Sometimes there is World Cup and Euro Cup during the summers and it also fills the void. This year World Cup is in Qatar so the summer will be particularly difficult

    Glad you have the world's most popular sport. I have seen about 10 matches in my life. Many many many years ago i was in LA on a businesses trip. During the meeting there was enormous commotion outside the room. We went outside and lobby was full of people with painted faces screaming and dancing and hugging. Couldn't believe it. Turns out brazil (i think that is correct ) just won world cup, or sone other huge tourney, (match was in LA i think) and the hotel was their hotel. Party went on for hours. I got to party for a bit.

    You are talking about 1994 World Cup. Final was in Rose Bowl. Brazil defeated Italy in the final. Baggio missed a penalty kick.

    That was a dramatic game.
