In the last game Fitz did not throw an interception. SMith fans all off season wanted to talk about the last game of the 15 season as the most recent Fitz effort. Jus sayin... We played the 0-8 Browns if Fitz did throw any INT's I would hope he would be CUT and left in Cleveland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewilly12 Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Just now, SAR I said: Yes. And the hat and the hoodie. Matched set. I call it the Bart Scott Can Wait Collection. About a month after the loss I was at my daughter's class play and I saw a kid wearing the hoodie. I asked where he got it and he said the local Marshalls and they had the t-shirt too so I ran over and bought all I could find, about 8 of each. The hat didn't turn up until a year later, and that was on eBay for a pretty penny. SAR I You shop at Marshall's? Do your neighbors know about this?

When it helps me pretend that we went to a Championship game and won one of them after 4 painful failures that took years off my life, yes, I embrace the Marshalls experience. I think I am onto something here with the virtual reality idea. If we set aside a day right here in this forum where we all pretend as if we won the AFC Championship Game, wouldn't it feel as good?

So these bad passes didn't hurt us, they don't count. SAR I Does having 4 SB rings count? Cuz if he did, we wouldn't crucify him for a dozen bad passes.

So this game didn't hurt us, it doesn't count. SAR I How old are you, SAR? I don't mean that in a negative way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And just because he didn't throw a pick last game doesn't mean he was on fire. He was a lame duck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone told me that for $20 I could go to MetLife with 80,000 Jets fans for an hour and watch us win the AFC Championship Game while doing some BBQ with friends and family, I'd go in a heartbeat. We can get celebrities like Larry David and Kevin James to play roles in full uniform, get some vets like Wesley Walker to cry as he speaks into the microphone accepting the MVP award. I'm sure the Jets players would show up, media coverage would be off the charts, it would look and feel like the real thing. Confetti, fireworks, we can storm the field, would be epic, and after We Want The Pumpkin, the inflatable love doll, the burning painters caps, it's very Jets-like. Far more entertaining than the Rockettes and the Radio City Christmas Show and for a fraction of the price. SAR I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
