Adam Gase Day 1 on the job

Gase knows a lot about NFL players who he wants and doesn’t want. Who will fit into his system and who won’t. Who he wants to work with and who he doesn’t. So if Macc smart he works with the guy (no matter how arrogant the guy is) and gets him the players he wants. He tried to do that in Miami but they didn’t give him enough time. And the owner interfered.

Is that Randy Lange standing between Gase and Johnson?

It sure is!  Randy Lange was the best beat reporter the Jets ever had (Bergen Record).  He was head and shoulders better than ALL of the others,  so good that the Jets hired him and we never heard from him again.  Back in the day, he used to come on a different message board (nyjetschat.com) site regularly for discussion with the fans. 

It was great and he was always so available for fans to chat with.  Then the Jets hired him and just like that.... he was gone.

Jets hire Randy Lange

 

Lange spent the past 13 years covering the team for the Record and also wrote for Jets Confidential, Sports Illustrated, USA Today, CBSSportsLine.com and numerous newspapers across the country. In 2005, Lange authored Stadium Stories: New York Jets published by "We are thrilled to announce the addition of Randy Lange to our website and publications team," said Matthew Higgins, New York Jets' Senior Vice President of Business Operations. "Randy brings a tremendous reservoir of knowledge about team history, much of which he documented during his impressive career as a sportswriter."Lange, in addition to his website responsibilities, will oversee Jets' publications, which include the annual Media Guide, the Season Preview Book and Jets' Playbook."After more than three decades in newspapers, this is going to be different, and it's going to be exciting," Lange said. "I know the Jets well; they know me well. This is a great opportunity that has come along at a perfect time, and I'm looking forward to getting started."The most significant recent addition to NewYorkJets.com is Jets TV – an online TV channel filled with behind-the-scenes footage, upgraded audio and visual capabilities and the ability to view Jets, press conferences live via streaming video."We continue to enhance the functionality and content offerings of NewYorkJets.com to meet the insatiable appetite of fans for real-time information," Higgins said. "In 2006, we successfully launched a newly redesigned website that provides robust video offerings, real time reporting of Jets' news, exclusive features such as live broadcasts of Coach Mangini's daily press conferences and a digital media library with extensive offerings from SportsNet New York. The addition of Randy Lange will provide fans with yet another reason to regularly visit NewYorkJets.com."Since the April 2006 relaunch, which included a cleaner layout with sortable rosters, interactive depth charts, and a vastly expanded history section, page views have increased 15% and video views have more than doubled.

These guys need to be more environ frinedly and get their own travel mugs with a ny jets log on it rather than paper cups that end up as litter.

um... the entire facility was built on top of the old Exxon research site which was heavily contaminated and took years  decades of clean up to make the site usable and safe.  The stuff that oozes under the Atlantic Health Jets facility is probably far worse than the poison under MetLife stadium and the Giants facility.

I remember those days.  Lange was a great beat writer, was widely respected and had a positive relationship with fans. It's all gone downhill since the Jets signed him away. I still read his stuff on the Jets' website though.
