NIGHT STALKER

Outside of our division, part of Jets home schedule include...Browns, Steelers, Cowboys, Raiders and Giants...buckle up, going to be a fun season.

Detroit Lions linebacker Trevor Bates punched a police officer in the face after he was arrested in New York on Saturday, police told ESPN. Bates was booked at the 115th Precinct station house in the borough of Queens for allegedly not paying a $32 cab fare from Manhattan to the Hampton Inn in Queens, said Queens District Attorney Richard Brown. At the precinct house, Bates was told that as long as there were no outstanding warrants, he would receive only a desk appearance ticket and be allowed to leave, Brown said. The prosecutor said Bates refused to be fingerprinted and became increasingly agitated and then punched a police sergeant in the face above the left eye. Authorities said the officer received three stitches and suffered a concussion. Police used a stun gun to subdue Bates. Bates is facing a felony charge of assaulting a police officer as well as resisting arrest, theft of service and obstructing governmental administration "We are aware of the arrest of Trevor Bates earlier today in New York," Lions general manager Bob Quinn said in a statement. "We have not spoken to Trevor as of yet and are still in the process of gathering more information. The Detroit Lions will have no further comment at this time." The 6-foot-2, 247-pound backup linebacker was taken to Elmhurst Hospital for a psychiatric evaluation, authorities said. Bates appeared in nine games this season with three tackles. The 25-year-old is in his first season with the Lions. Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

I was wrong...I listened again.

Don't get your panties in a wad...I listened to it again and I was wrong. Oh, I am NOT a negative thinking fan because I misinterpreted with what I "thought" I heard.

Yes, he did say that as well, but he also said what I posted. Listen, I just want this new HC to get his first choices...not second and third candidates. Not a good look.

They had Gase on. If you did, did you catch that BIG NEGATIVE NUGGET Gase blurted out when asked about possible assistant coaches coming in for interviews? I'm paraphrasing here, but he basically said was, "trying to convince possible candidates to come here for an interview". Not good if we have that reputation. Perhaps that's the reason we haven't signed Williams yet and is rumored to be looking at the Redskins. I WAS WRONG FELLAS...RELAX!

Leave it to Jet fans to work themselves up into a lather over his eyes...he's had a few other NFL gigs and it's about his "eyes" here...give it a rest people and let's hope we got ourselves a winning coach here. Something that has gotten lost with the "eyes".

I've seen this guy behind the scenes when the Browns were on Hard Knocks and he's a dick...having said that, I would love this hire. I don't know if any of you have been in the military, but the DI's I learned the most from were "dicks"...guys that get in your face, that will embarrass you in front of everyone else...perfect. You learn from guys like this. When I had jungle training back in the day, the DI's were constantly in your face day and night...HIRE THE DICK!

Every HC hired by the Jets since and including Herm Edwards has had a good first year. Just putting it out there if Gase should have a winning record his first year.

I'm holding back and waiting to see who he hires as his assistants.

Pffffff...that’s all I have on this. Living in South Florida, I do know players were going to mutiny if he was retained...like all hires of Jet HC’s, I’ll take a wait and see attitude...especially the hiring of assistants.

I know he said he would stay with the Ravens, but is it possible the Jets are trying to pry him away? I think we're down to three teams now that haven't hired a HC...us, fins and bengals. Hope the Jets know what the F they're doing.

You know how it goes...we've been Jet fans way too long. Once that boat leaves the dock, people start jumping on board. It's the "hot" name right now.

You may not understand it, but I didn't make up the stat...sports media is full of this stat and sometimes full of s%$#. How come we haven't found a franchise QB since Namath, yet other teams have found multiple franchise QB's? I could never understand that stat.

So far...give me a holler when Chuckie wins it.
