    1998 was a great year to be a Jet fan

    You might think I would say the same.....but we have had season tix since 1975. Do not remember the year but my first Monday night game at Shea. We beat the Vikings 14-7.

    Also the Bills game in the playoffs. Bruce Harper fumbles the opening kickoff the Bills return it for a TD. Todd brought us all t he way back, only to fall short at the end. The first time I cried in the stadium. Rember it like it was yesterday. Mom and Dad could not console me.

    -Monday Night Miracle
    -Beating the Chargers in the 2004 Wild Card Game
    -destroying the packers and then colts in back to back weeks in 02 (coming out of nowhere to win the afc east)
    -john hall's 53 yd field goal to beat OAK in 2001 and send us into the playoffs
    -easily beating jacksonville in 1998 divisional round

    thats about it, a lot more bad memories than good i guess.

    1986 Jets Dolphins

    This game was truly a classic for all Jet fans. 51-45 Jets in OT. Marino and Obrien going for almost 900 yards passing. What a first memory for a 10 year old Jet fan who was going to one of his first Jet games at the time.

    Wesley Walker in OT...Classic!

    I started watching the Jets because my father loved the Giants AND Jets. (He only loved the Yankees in baseball though.)

    I can't tell you when my defining moment was. I honestly don't remember. My oldest memories are that of Walton touching his brain with his index finger every time the camera hit him.

    The first HC I actually approved of was Pete Carroll (sp?). What a raw deal he got here. I think he may have solidified my love of the Jets. I loved his defense, and I thought he was going to bring us glory.

    I have some memories of the Raul Alegre game, but to be fair I was 6. So I guess it would be the 98 season, especially starting with the Sunday night win over Miami (Cascadden returning the fumble) all the way through the Jacksonville playoff game which I was at. As great as 2002 it can't compare to 98 since it was the first time I saw a Jets team that was legitimately good.
