Jet Nut Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Heres what I dont get. The NYDNs circulation and readership has been in a tailspin all the years I used to read it on my commute and on, DYoung, MLupica, RCimini, MMehta, theyve gotten worse and worse, harsher and harsher and doesnt seem to me that the confrontational beat reporter approach isnt really working, is it?

He’s selling himself and his own agenda. Adam Gase and the NY Jets did not like it, so they got rid of him. I can’t imagine you would just expect the Daily News to simply bend-over and take it. Connor Hughes, for sure. But the Daily News isn’t going to allow Adam Gase to control them. Let go of your hate Mr Mehta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we win Sunday, time to talk extension. SAR I 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, it’s not, hasn’t for years. NYDN didn’t get the memo that Jets fans aren’t gullible blue collar drunks anymore. Fireman Ed got the message. Loud and clear. Manish got the message. Gone. Joe Beningo and his failing ratings are next. SAR I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude sticks to his guns saying the jets basically had a deal in place with Logan ryan and when it leaked, JD stopped negotiating. Also doubles down on the financial restrictions placed by the owners. I hated listening to that podcast today. There is zero chance that Douglas wouldn't follow through on a signing that would have helped the team just to spite a reporter. It's just plain silly. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoubleDown Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 It's an absurd question, but I am not a huge fan of Gase's response. By focusing on the timing of the question, he actually legitimized the premise of it. A better answer would have been that it's not his job or responsibility to judge the feelings of Jets fans. His focus is on the team and winning football games. It's also unfair for the reporter to lump all Jets fans together as if they all have the same exact thoughts on the head coach and his performance.

If he did what you suggested that would have been legitimizing the premise. Instead he basically said I am focused on the Bills. That is how Belichick answers this stuff all the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted September 10, 2020 Author Share Posted September 10, 2020 6 hours ago, FidelioJet said: What’s wrong with holding a man, who makes millions of dollars a year, accountable to be even mildly competent? It’s a legitimate question. It absolutely is no where near legitimate. Adam Gase will be held accountable by what the team does on the field. In April of 1996 a ton of Yankee fans wanted Joe Torre fired after he just got there. A year later it wasn't the case any longer. What happens on the field is what matters. What Jets fans think of Gase? You ask him that a few days before the game when the media gets such little exposure. The NYDN feature was about a 19 year old blogger? Great kid, I am a huge fan of his but how about they just cover the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference between BB and Gase is that BB legit doesn’t care about what anyone writes about him. Gase by all accounts is incredibly thin skinned. It was a fair question that was worded very inappropriately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoop24 Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Whats the point of doing a interview if you cant make people uncomfortable once in awhile to get something outside the normal company line.

It is a waste of time to ask a coach what he thinks about the fans opinion before the opener. Want to ask him if he is worried about his job? Or what C Johnson thinks? Sure that is fair. But what the fans think is Friday night lights barber shop level stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warfish Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 17 hours ago, Maxman said: My question is why would Jets fans care if Gase agrees with their assessment? We wouldn't/shouldn't. 17 hours ago, Maxman said: If the team is bad he gets fired. Probably not in 2020, but conceptually, yes. 17 hours ago, Maxman said: Nobody needs Gase's permission to feel a certain way about him. Agreed. 17 hours ago, Maxman said: He didn't ask, what would you say to Jets fans who think you should be fired? He basically tried to bait Gase into saying something bad about Jets fans. That would have been a better, more fair, and more appropriate question, agreed. "Why should Jets Fans believe in you as their Head Coach" is IMO a fair question. 17 hours ago, Maxman said: Just garbage. The Daily News is going out of business. This isn't helping. New York media is poop. This is hardly new. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jj71787 Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 The question is ridiculous. Why are you asking someone about being fired. Would they want to be asked what happens when Manish's replacement needs a replacement. I'm not a gase supporter or opposer, but no one wants to answer that dumb question. Ask about improvements, does he see things differently, areas to improve, normal questions that coach's are usually asked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
