Maxman Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 How am I asking for money? These towels are free. How do I get a free one? Someone kept tweeting this link to us which isn't free - http://firejohnidzik.myshopify.com/collections/frontpage/products/penalty-flag-protest-towel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Make me idSICK Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 We will be posting a list of sports bars early next week. All you have to do is show up and show your game ticket for 5 free towels. We are waiting to post the list until the towels are in. Where do you live?

Make me idSICK Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 We are charging to ship them bc we dont have the infrastructure in place to ship thousands of towels. We would prefer that people go to the bars and get them for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsFanInDenver Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Of all our division opponents we have played Pats the best. We won against the Pats last season. I wonder how smart fans look holding that towel as we are beating a much hated division opponent at home. All I am saying is this has that potential of blowing up in the face.

SoFlaJets Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 Not for nuthin' but there sure has been way more vitriol on this site since JI got shut down. I find it has even started infecting some of the other ex-JIers who made the jump some years ago. Way too much in-fighting lately, what's next calling out every other thread with a "dump this"?

Smashmouth Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 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? You said you were done responding. Add a little weight to one corner and have everyone in the freakin stadium throw them onto the field during the kickoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Better2bgreenthanblue Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 It's good to know fellow Jets fans have passion for the team. Woody should be thankful that people don't protest with their feet. Nothing worse than a empty stadium. Wave those yellow flags!! Put up billboards....it's way better than turning your back on a team you have been rooting for since birth. I for one am beyond pissed, but Woodys mis ownership of the team won't keep me away. I have been a Jets fan way before Woody and will be once he is gone which isn't soon enough! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sourceworx Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 God Bless you reminder you can't tell people how to spend their money. This Jets protest is long overdue years this team has been ruining peoples lives and taking a lot of money from fans for nothing. Man, you need a dose of perspective. Holy crap.

freestater Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 I'm in favor of anything that pressures Woody into getting rid of Idzik. With the cap room we have and a top 5 pick on the way, this is NOT the guy to have holding the rudder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flgreen Posted December 5, 2014 Author Share Posted December 5, 2014 take your tickets that you spent your hard earned money on to one of our distribution locations (we will post the list in a couple days) and pick up your free towels.. help us protest.. Just wondering. Think what your doing is cool, and a lot of fun, but why are you giving the towels away at bars? Why not just go to the stadium and give them away?

Why not just go to the stadium and give them away? Think about it fg, this is the same place that had season ticket holders and PSL buyers ejected for holding up banners, you think for one second that they are going to allow these people to stand outside the turnstiles and hand them out like some towel day? No frigging way. They would be escorted off the premises in ten minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No frigging way. They would be escorted off the premises in ten minutes. Your right that would happen if they are at the turnstiles. But if there were several of them they could walk around all the taligates, and give them away, and just give them to people walking toward the entrance, they would be harder to stop. Also banners are forbidden at the stadium. Security had a reason to eject the people holding them. With the towels, no rule against them. The media would have fun with it. Some one high in the Jets would have to give out a rule change to security Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flgreen Posted December 5, 2014 Author Share Posted December 5, 2014 I don't know why people are upset with what these guys are doing. From what I have read they have been very upfront where the money is going. If there was a fraud involved the media would be all over it. I wasn't really for or against it at first, thought it was useless, but they have gained some momentum, and getting attention, at it just looks like a lot of fun in embarrassing Woody.

Sometimes it is hard to figure out lol. these towels are free.. lol… how could we be frauding anybody.. we have donated hundreds of hours of our time and a ton of our own money to this cause… We have $75,000 in PSL's (5 at $15k each) that we are trying to protect. If the Jets bring back current management, we are walking away. They aren't financed. We will consider it sunk cost. This is not some sort of scam or business. Quite the contrary - it has gotten in the way of my real work (thankfully I own my company or somebody might put up a Fire the John Idzik guy billboard next to my office)…. we are only doing it because we are passionate about this team and trying to do anything in our power to help fix it. Something else to consider: If we were a business - it would be the single worst business plan of all time. Our goal is to put ourselves OUT of business. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would prefer that people go to the bars and get them for free. There is a group of 30 (17 of us Jets fans, the rest Pats) of us going to the game- unfortunately none of us are in the Metro area and can't get to the bars to pick up towels. If you were to ship towels for the 17 Jets fans to Greenwich, CT- how much would it cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
