RutgersJetFan Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Because it's oh-so important to you that Jets fans are in my seats. So it's not about price; it's about loyalty. Get a Paypal account and $1,000 in there. You'll love my seats. And you can wear a t-shirt that says "not an enemy". It'll be epic. SAR I Wow. A whole thousand?

Sperm Edwards Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Can we lock jowilly and Sar in a thread where they can do battle over things nobody cares about? That would be great! This way they wouldn't ruin every thread they post in. Thanks, A concerned forum member I'm considering it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack48 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I don't hate Pats fans---just the Pats. And having said that, I am no longer a young punk who lives or dies over sports. I love to watch, I get mad sometimes, but I usually do not even have to wait to sleep it off. I have lived too long and seen too many more serious disappointments than the loss of a football or a baseball game. Maybe being a Met and Jet fan has conditioned me for sports disappointment. Strangely, I like this me better than the old, heart-burned one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patman Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Now that the pain is subsiding a little bit. I just wanted to extend a congratulations to the good, long time Patriot fans that post here. It is so annoying to read my facebook feed and see people who didn't know who the Pats were two weeks ago, let alone prior to 2001. But for the long time Patriot fans, it must me amazing to see your team have a run like they have since 2001. Do they cheat? Probably. But I know from experience that even at the high school level, the more successful teams bend the rules to the furthest extent possible. It will probably always exist in some form, in all sports. Thanks, at least every year the percentage of band wagon fans goes down, When Parcells was brought aboard 1/2 of NE all of a sudden were interested in the pats now 22 mostly successful years later most of the bandwagon fans have become actual fans. There are guys who are 30 years old that never seen McPherson/Rust era, and no home games on tv, An owner that went bankrupt backing Michael Jackson, selling naming rights? sh*t they had to sell the parking lots. Kraft brought the stadium in Bankruptcy court! Not having enough money to pay Cortez Kennedy's SB so they had to trade down, Trading Mike Haynes and Leon Gray because they could not afford them . Losing a coach who I consider an all time great in Chuck Fairbanks due to money. It was tough to be a fan in the 70s and most of the 80s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMC Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I dont understand the need to "congratulate" fans of a team. The fans did absolutely nothing. Congratulate the Pats, they actually played the game. But,hey, "Congratulations Pat fans for watching the team you rootfor win a game!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patman Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I'm hoping they get their 1st rounder taken away for cheating And we get the jets 1st for tampering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patman Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Congrats to the Pats Fans. I hope that someday, in my lifetime, my team will celebrate a SB win of its own. LL I hope that it comes a lot sooner, my oldest son is a jets fan and except for one game in Foxboro 5 years ago he has had 20 mostly tuff years.

Rexorcism Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I attend 6 games a year, can't do all 8 nor it is my responsibility to do so. And on those days that I have to sell my seats they are offered at a fair price to both Jets fans and opposing fans, I have no control over who buys them. But since you seem to care so much, next season you can give me $1,000 for the two games I can't attend and then you can make sure they get into the hands of Jets fans. Pay up or shut up. SAR I I would like to take you up on that offer next year if our schedules mesh...Keep me in mind...Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 I had a good time going to a game in 2007 with Sar (when he was still a five and dime rif raf season ticket holder) He had great sideline mezzanine ticks and we were right by gate d so we also went there for the halftime show. In fact I still have pics from gate d on that day lol. Now this new high brow SAR I don't know lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, 1/2 way thru the game we would get on each other nerves so bad with the trash talking, etc that I would kick him upstairs.

patman Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 It's just a game bro. Give that kid a hug before he murders somebody. Well he is 32 YO now and my 4 yo granddaughter looks wonderful in her jet cheerleader uniform and he refuses to let me buy her anything patriot related. And my 21YO is a Seahawk fan so you can imagine what Sunday was like, I picked him up from school and we watched the game. When the pats had the ball I had it muted and when the Seattle had the ball the voice was on. And no he is not a bandwagon fan. He became a fan when Mosi Tatupu along with the Pats Alumni played a charity softball game against the local cops when he was in grade school. Tatupo was very nice to him taking pictures and signing stuff etc. When his son got drafted by the seahawks, I guess he figured if I was a fan of the father he would become a fan of the son.

section314 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 That's a good story.You are a good guy, and I am happy for real Pats fans like you. You strike me as a guy who was there in the old Foxboro stadium during the Kiam days hoping for days like this. This will be my 36th year with Jets tix, and I was 11 in 1969. I just want one more chance to see my team in the big one. A a longtime Pats guy, who would you say is your 2nd greatest QB, Grogan or Bledsoe?

I vote for Grogan, but he also had luxury of better teams through much of his career. The pats in the late 60s (when the jets/Pats situation was turned on its head) were brutal, Then Fairbanks came in, we got the new Stadium (who cared if it was the worse) and things looked good for a few years then just 15 years of total mismanagement and the worse owner in the NFL. Teams did not even want to play in NE as at that time they would get 40% of the gate and there was only about 40,000 there every sunday, unless it was Dallas, Pitt or Miami. Girls up here who were fans wore Marino gear. Bledsoe was the 2nd best qb the pats had, Grogan was RGIII, before RGIII was born. He like Namath and Orr would have lasted at the top for a lot longer with modern knee surgery. Grogan while not the qb that Bledsoe was was a much better leader. Bledsoe on the other hand was the guy a father would hope his kid would be. A guy that put his family above all else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
