Great band (SRV's drummer), really great live and inexpensive. oh why the hell not..... since this thread was absolute garbage anyway until @HelenOfTroy, brought up great concerts and since this thread is going to get shut sooner or later: I saw Kenny Wayne! Blew me away, young kid, he opened for Etta James. Killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time Adams uninates in the end zone, has several violent retaliatory incidents against a defender in ONE game, kick FG nets, disparage the FO or have his dad do it, organize a shirtless sausage fest boat trip before a playoff game, made it clear he wanted to play in the West Coast, can’t stay on the field, please regale us with those stories. OBJ as talented as he is is a POS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenbloodblitz Posted April 13, 2019 Author Share Posted April 13, 2019 And actually the reason I started the thread was due to the article that stated our coach was the one who pushed for CJ Mosley because he wanted a leader on the field and in the locker room. And I thought to myself Gase had no problem getting rid of the "ME" guys in Miami, and I was just toying with the scenario that maybe he's not as impressed with Jamal Adams as some of our fans are? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has not had any legal contact with Adams as a Jet coach, he was extremely complimentary of Adams when he was at Miami and has made it clear EVERYONE starts here with a clear slate. Stop. It’s was a troll job. A well planned one that just didn’t get the results you wanted. Or maybe you did. But again, trading one of your absolute best players on a rookie contract in the HOPES you’ll get a better player or players in a year or 3 is such a SOJF thing to even think of. The music derailment was the savior. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twice at the West side Pier concerts, when they were still doing that. Or once there and once in Central Park, it's been a while. On the blues rock thing some more, caught the ABB at the Beacon about 5 times, roughly every two years, then a gap, then their 2nd to last run. Missed the anniversary shows in one of all time regrets, not making the Clapton with ABB nights. At least I went to the Cream reunion at MSG. Have everything Hendrix and SRV ever put on tape or concert in .shn or .flac format. Plus a ton of other stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peace Frog Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Wasn’t there a famous Clapton story when he first met/played with Jimi and they found Eric back stage furiously chain-smoking and sweating and someone asked him what was wrong and he stammered “nobody told me he was that good”. Too funny. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John with Al and Paco De Lucia, unreal shows. Jaco was the best bass player who ever lived. Saw him a few times after he left Weather Report (saw them with Victor Bailey). I never saw a bass player with such a soloing style fit so well in the pocket of songs. The guy literally never over played. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TNJet Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 I love Jamal on the field I just hate Jamal's mouth off of it. He's not in charge of the organization like he thinks. Just play ball man and stfu. Lead by example more, and less verbally. You know kinda like Maye does. I love Marcus Maye lil talk and all business on the field. That said, no reason to trade Jamal.
