It only seems like my ego is big because I'm basically fighting ten of you by myself, so naturally, the focus of attention. Was the thread a bit vitriolic? Sure, but it's not because I have a big ego. Or maybe it is, I don't know, that's for Freud to figure out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gastineau Lives Posted October 9, 2017 Author Share Posted October 9, 2017 So, basically, my point was proven. Not one of you actually believes the Jets can get to 8 wins or more. Not a one. You have no credibility. Not a one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyLV Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 3 hours ago, Gastineau Lives said: Okay, here's the deal you lucky devils. I am offering to bet anyone that is interested on the rest of the season. 20 bucks a game. The catch is, you can't cherry pick games you must take the rest of the season as a whole. So, for example: If the Jets go 6-5 the rest of the way, I owe you 20 bucks. If they go 5-6, you owe me 20. We'll exchange Pay Pal info at the end of the season and you can all take my money. Easy money, right? Unless you don't believe the Jets can get to 8-8, if you are just talking out of your a$$hole and ARE actually rooting for a six win team but won't admit it. In that case, perhaps you should just shut the **** up, no? I'm serious about the bets, though. Let me know in this thread if you'd like to take my money. Lol, to be a fair bet you would need to provide like 2 to 1 odds at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are arguing this point with no one, because the position you are making proclamations about simply does not exist. However, if it makes you feel better to celebrate your own fictitious battle, then congratulations I guess. Unfortunately, I assure you no one has the intention of paying you for this triumphant victory, despite your demands otherwise. And not to get all mathematical on you, but your asinine wager offer would have meant you still getting paid even if the Jets did reach 8-8, given your bravery to only offer to gamble after what was long since known as the easiest stretch of the Jets' schedule.

Say the Jets were playing a middle school football team and that middle school football team outgained the Jets by 500 yards, but every time they within five yards of the goal line, their quarterback threw the ball directly to guys in green jerseys because she likes the color green and when she wasnt doing that, the kicker was kicking the ball directly into the long snappers ass just for the fun of it. At halftime, the coach decided he would put in a quarterback that actually liked to score and the Jets won by three points. Is that a win? What happened yesterday is a degree of that.

AFJF Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 1 hour ago, Gastineau Lives said: So, to be clear, you KNOW that they are not winning more than five or six games and you are hoping for them to reach those five or six. Or do you KNOW that they're not winning five or six games but hoping that somehow, they do? Or are you rooting for ten wins? How many are you rooting for, exactly? You look at the schedule and go, sh*t we can't beat the Patriots, but I sure HOPE we do? If that's the case, why stop at a handful of wins? Why not go all the way to a Super Bowl? Or is THAT silly? Nobody knows anything, really. I believe they'll only win a couple more games, but what I believe doesn't have to be the same thing that I want. I'm rooting for them to never lose another game for the rest of my life, but I don't believe that will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And not a one of the rah rah crowd has offered to bet me, which proves my point. You KNOW they are not winning more than six games, yet are HOPING we get to those six wins. To me, that is absolutely senseless. But yeah, this Jets team is so bad that they got outgained by the Browns by a 2-1 margin. So yeah, in this case winning is losing. I don't think one has to believe they are God to recognize that. What's actually senseless is getting all upset about how other people root for the team, as if it somehow influences the outcome of the games.

Yeah, but Glenn, when we are talking about this season, specifically and if you believe that Darnold or Rosen have a great chance to be the franchise quarterback we've needed forever, you are hoping to reach something that you logically know is not possible, so you are actually hoping to get to those five or six wins and ensure more mediocrity.

If a real ULTIMATE rebuild means you have to go 1-15 for three years straight to HOPEFULLY get every single draft pick right, then no, I'm not interested. That's 48 games in 3 years. Darnold has gone from darling to dolt in 4 weeks, Rosen doesn't even know if he likes football,lol. Who the f*ck knows, this sh*t is all luck like Aaron Rogers lasting until the 24th pick, or Brady in the 6th, or Dak Prescott, or the 49ers giving up on Alex Smith, and on & on. My god some kid named Baker Mayfield might be the best QB in this upcoming draft or Josh Allen, Luke Falk, Mason Rudolph, maybe Jackson f*cks you guys all up & becomes another Randall Cunningham. None of you guys know sh*t about the true future in the NFL for these guys. That's why Derek Carr was taken in the 2nd round pick 36! He should have been taken in the god damn 1st round by the Jets instead of that loser Calvin Pryor @ 18. Some of these guys are stabs in the dark, Jets just gotta keep swinging, but asking a professional team to lose on purpose? Who do you think we are the Indianapolis Colts? Yea, they got luck, but they STILL SUCK! Jets are building a TEAM. Remember a guy in Indy who was a huge pc to their Super Bowl puzzle, a guy named Bob Sanders?

If they are NOT on pace to finish with a winning record, then WHAT are they on pace to do? What is the best case scenario? 7-9? 6-10? How does that help? How does beating a horrific team that outgained you by a 2-1 margin because their rookie QB was horrific and their kicker couldn't make a field goal while yours made a last second 57 yarder, help your team. What does it SAY about your team? You blame me for reading the thoughts of my fellow posters, yet that is EXACTLY what you are doing with the same amount of information that I have.
