flgreen Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 NY Jets fan behind the ‘Fire John Idzik’ campaign plan to throw penalty flag at GM during final home game The group announced Thursday that Dec. 21, the Jets' final home game, will be 'Penalty Flag Day' and they will distribute yellow towels that will read 'Attention Woody, Fire Idzik! Clean house!' BY JOHN HEALY NEW YORK DAILY NEWS Thursday, December 4, 2014, 4:05 PM A A A FIREJOHNIDZIK.COM Jets fans are throwing a flag on John Idzik. The fans behind the "Fire John Idzik" billboards announced Thursday that Dec. 21, the Jets' final home game, will be "Penalty Flag Day" and they will distribute yellow towels that will read "Attention Woody, Fire Idzik! Clean house!" The fans joined forces with the group that flew the "Fire Idzik" banner over practice after they noticed fans were being ejected from MetLife Stadium for bringing signs demanding the GM be fired. Signs and banners are against MetLife Stadium policy, but towels are not. A plane with a banner reading 'FIRE JOHN IDZIK' is seen over Jets practice on Nov. 5. The "penalty flags" will be distributed at sports bars across the New York City metro to anyone with a ticket to the game. One ticket will equal five towels. Firejohnidzik.com concluded their announcement by saying: "If Steeler fans can wave their 'Terrible Towels' in our building, then Jets fans surely have their right to wave our 'Penalty Flags.'"

joewilly12 Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 There are children who won't have a Christmas because their families are struggling, and then there are stupid things like this. Hope they have fun. PSLs and season tickets to a worthless season cost more than these towels. Will you be donating to any families in need this holiday season?

Make me idSICK Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Like the billboard scam artist told us right here at the Nation.... "Our cause is not interested in media attention, we turn it down" Liars Phonies Media whores you are nothing more than a liar so stop twisting my words. I never once said that our cause is not interested in media attention. We absolutely want attention of the media to apply as much pressure as possible on ownership. What I said - and what you accuse us of - is the founders trying to get 15 minutes of fame and self promoting. That couldn't be further from the truth. So give it up already. You lost this argument about 4 weeks ago. First we were thieves who would never put up a billboard. Then the billboard went up. Then we were skimming money off of the top because the billboards cost nothing. So I posted our finances. Then we are media whores. When does it end, man. It's ok. Just say "I was wrong" and I will send you a t-shirt AND a towel to wipe your tears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make me idSICK Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Gather some perspective. You chose to pay the Jets. Now, who looks stupid? You do.. and so does anybody else who chooses to tell adults how to spend their hard earned money. What you find to be "stupid" others might not. Why not go preach to the people on the beer line that their $12 beer would be better spent on homeless children. Or go out to any restaurant in America and preach to the people buying $53 steaks the same message. Maybe the sneaker store where people buy $100 Nikes instead of going to payless for a $15 pair. People have the right to do WHATEVER they want with their money. Get off of your high horse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I am concerned that by your lack of messaging against Rex Ryan you're making it out as if he's innocent and deserves to stay. Tell me I've got that wrong please.
