The Spurs were too strong for us Jets man, they really piss me off with their coaching and players we pick. I hope we get lucky next year.

I will always be a Jets and Knicks fan, but the Jets have been a worse organization than the Knicks with horrendous ownership and drafts. Knicks have won what since the new century? At least the Jets have made the playoffs and had s few wins. The Jets have been over .500, the Knicks? And who cares enough about the Knicks to get aggravated, the Jets turn my stomach 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonderboy Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Basketball totally sucks now. Was a big Knicks fan back in the 70’s-90’s . The game has totally changed from a team concept to ‘look at me and how bad I am’. The teams today would get clobbered by the great defensive teams of the 70’s like the Knicks Lakers Celtics. The coaches back then were legendary. Now they and the players hop around like jumping beans from team to team. It’s a joke and a bad one at that. I have zero interest in watching that sport anymore regardless who plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get excited for the Mets, Knicks, and Rangers but all three put together mean less to me than the sorry ass Jets! Same 4 teams as me though I prioritize the Mets and Rangers because the Jets are just too painful and the Knicks have been hopeless for 2 decades now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also was a Yea hey check me out guy as well but made everyone better and a great defender. He was so good it got boring for him and switched to baseball so his friends in the NBA could win a title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawn306 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 I gave up on the Knicks like 15 years ago. Bringing in Melo cemented it forever. Jets easy.

Lith Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 The Jets don't casue me heartache anymore. You need to have expectations to have heartache. After the loss in Pitt in the AFCCG, Heartache. Losing 3 straight at the end of 2011 to miss out on the playoffs. Heartache. Losing the last game in Buffalo to end the 2015 season. Heartache. But since then, I have had no expectations. Began to relaize Macc/Bowles combo was a disaster after that 2015 season. Even though I had faith in Darnold, which I have since lost, I hated the Gase hire last year and I am not surprised by these last two seasons. No expectations and the losses don't hurt so much. Heartache is losing a National Championship game in overtime to Alabama after blowing a doulbe digit 3rd quarter lead and letting yourself think you are going to win a Title. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defense Wins Championships Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 The Knicks. Football is hard to build a great team due to 22 starters etc. But with the Knicks? Omg. We can't even get a solid 5 starters together. It's pathetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredible frustration that we are here, not even 3 weeks from opening day. Talking about whether or not we are better off losing. In order to fire a coach. And draft a QB. And its still September. Heartache is when I get my emotions up, build up expectations and have those hopes crushed. Which has happened plenty of times with this franchise, but not the last few years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm getting what youre saying and I wish I could lower expectations enough to ease my frustration. And you touched on it. I tell my son all the time, I just want games that are competitive. They can lose, I can live with losses a lot better if they were in games they lost and looked like a real team. Not this shlt. Even when the team wasn't all that good you go into some of their games and think you have a chance of winning, you root for the team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

playtowinthegame Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 It's been awhile since I felt heartache from a sports team. It's not like we have any say or control shaping the teams we root for. All you can do is hope they'll get it right someday. I'd say I feel mostly apathetic towards the teams I root for (Jets. Mets, Knicks) but I love sports in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knicks - trade for Chris Paul and get a good wing player at 8 in the draft.
