He was more of an mma guy but if I gave him current events each week for a Jets video he was great. We worked with him one year and the next year I reached out to him. I said hey I am redoing the front page, I want to feature The Garv on our home page and get more exposure. The response I got I can still remember almost word for word. "I've gone brand crazy like Dana White" That was his way of saying he was only promoting himself going forward. I was bummed, I thought it was working well. I just checked his site looks like he is out of business. Yeah, I thought he was pretty gd funny. Was disappointed he stopped making those Jets videos. I just hope he is doing better than The Kid From Brooklyn ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making your way in the world today Takes everything you've got Taking a break from all your worries Sure would help a lot Wouldn't you like to get away? All those nights when you've got no lights The check is in the mail And your little angel Hung the cat up by its tail And your third fiance didn't show Sometimes you want to go Where everybody knows your name And they're always glad you came You want to be where you can see Our troubles are all the same You want to be where everybody knows your name Roll out of bed, Mr. Coffee's dead The morning's looking bright And your shrink ran off to Europe And didn't even write And your husband wants to be a girl Be glad there's one place in the world Where everybody knows your name And they're always glad you came You want to go where people know People are all the same You want to go where everybody knows your name Where everybody knows your name And they're always glad you came Where everybody knows your name And they're always glad you came Where everybody knows your name And they're always glad you came Where everybody knows your name HAPPY BIRTHDAY JN!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munchmemory Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 Can't believe that an idea I had about creating a "computerized" Jets fan site, and shared with Max in the Backgammon Room at the old Plato's Retreat, turned into what we now know as JetNation. Although I never saw a nickel of the enormous profits Max banked, I am still rightfully proud of this endeavor and my oracular vision way back in its formative stage. Congratulations. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BP Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Happy anniversary Maximo!! I remember the old days of coaching little league baseball followed by unlimited hours in your basement on the JN treadmill keeping the server going. fun fact: I actually had the keys one time. Before a game the server needed to be rebooted and of all people Max asked me to reboot it “I’m giving you the keys” @stormshadow19 would have been proud of me 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJ Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 On 2/16/2021 at 2:13 AM, JetNation said: Happy Birthday JetNation, the site turns 16 years old today. 2020 was a rough year all around but the timing is perfect for a sweet-16 after the recent changes; goodbye Adam Gase and hello Robert Saleh. Despite the tough times on and off the field last year, the one thing that never disappoints is the loyalty of Jets fans. So many of you call the site home and for that we say thank you. A volunteer fan-site having the long term success that JetNation continues to have is impressive. The team’s performance on the field left so much to be desired, yet the site put up record numbers. Why? Because Jets fans will never give up. We continue to surpass a million page views a month, now over 115 million all-time page views. Record #’s for post counts in the forums with our busiest year ever; closing in on 5 million posts and over 21,000 members. If you read our blog posts or if you follow JetNation on social media we want you to know that we really appreciate it. Same for the die-hard fans in our NY Jets forum. The conversation gets heated at times but we know we all want the same thing. The good news is after years of being lost, this franchise is finally headed in the right direction. Special thanks go out to all those who volunteer to make the site great. The Moderators: Thor99, Sperm Edwards, The Crusher, Joec36, Slats, NYCDan and Charlie Brown. Our Writers and Content Team: Glenn Naughton Courtney Aurillo Alex Varallo Dylan Tereman GreenBean KRL The post Happy Birthday JetNation (16) appeared first on JetNation.com (NY Jets Blog & Forum).

Thanks for not blowing the place up. haha. Those were stressful times, hosting was dicey. We are on a much more expensive plan now, but with a dedicated server there is so much less to worry about. Those texts during a little league game, server is down -- that wasn't a lot of fun! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
