Mediocrity won't be settled for. The guy pulling the strings here is Christopher Johnson. He's been decisive and taken action after sitting back, educating himself, and gathering information during that first year Woody was gone. Took the decisive step on the HC hire and not the easy way out by selecting the "safe" choice with Mike McCarthy. Took the unorthodox step of firing Maccagnan in May knowing that the Jets would take heat from everyone in the media during the quietest part of the NFL schedule when ESPN, NFL Network, etc. are salivating for stories. But it was the right move for the team longterm. I see it all the time at work and in my profession. The decisive leaders make the right choices regardless of the ridicule or "bad look" it may generate. To me, Christopher Johnson looks like a guy who gets it. He's the master of puppets here. @SAR I 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost like they realize it, but just can't come out and say it, LOL. Go on any NFL apparel site. 80% of the Jets stuff has the old logo. This, almost 6 months after the "big reveal"...

They look horrible together. I'm hoping we go "Dallas" and wear the white jerseys as much as possible. They can change out to the green or white pants depending on whether they're home or away... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glat was hired in 2012, nothing to do with the stadium's strategy or construction. He ran everything outside of what goes on to put the team on the field. Considering how the Jets are #2 in ticket sales in the entire NFL and operate a very professional operation in Florham Park, he did his job effectively. Question is, do he and Maccagnan get rings in February. Not sure what the protocol is there, but something to think about. SAR I 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAR I Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 57 minutes ago, BCJet said: The Jets business side has been as bad as the product on the field since Glat came heee. Aside from One Jets Drive, they literally can’t do anything right. The Stadium (somewhere between below average and awful) and the jersey reveal (horrendous), in particular showed a complete lack of understanding today’s sports environment. This job with JD and Sam (and hopefully Gase) is now attractive to bring in a smart business person to run things. Neil Glat had nothing to do with the stadium then or now, that is run by a completely different organization. Ticket sales were his primary focus, and the Jets did an admirable job of managing a lousy team and keeping fans engaged. Lowering ticket prices and eliminating PSL's in some sections surely was an ownership decision, not just Neil's. The Jets are #2 in the entire NFL in ticket sales and have no chance to be #1, can't see how anyone could have done any better. As far as team operations go, I'm not aware that the Jets had problems with transportation or hotels on road gamedays, another responsibility of Neil's. Toilet paper in Florham Park was of excellent quality. I didn't like the noodle salad. The jersey reveal was an embarrassment, but he has an entire department managing media and surely someone there should take the blame. Eric Allen should be the first to go. The guy can't even speak. Bottom line is that Glat was the last vestige of Woody's reign and this is clearly Chris' show now. Get a new non-football leader, he's going to be loyal to Chris and everyone in the building will 100% be on the same page. SAR I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If youre that wrapped up in minutia. That you thought this is important, missing the point of liking the uniform or not doesnt change the idea of rooting for a team, yes, that makes someone a tool. No one said anything you took the time to type. So twist it around, take a really simple concept, you root for a team and twist it something else. You dont like the uniform, I get it.
