Sonny Werblin Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 He failed the only class he ever took on logo design. Pure gold. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adoni Beast Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Great story and surprisingly the Jets did the right and classy thing by reaching out to this guy and letting him know and giving him the recognition by putting this together. Really nice touch. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say something more than "how many fingers am I holding up? You're hired". Perhaps "Can you make coffee?" for starters. GM showed a total lack of respect to the person being interviewed and thoughtlessness about who they are bringing into the building. Given what the Jets were in the 70s, this doesn't surprise me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jago Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 jets were behind the curve on film work too. i recall maybe correctly my dad talking about this scouting "combine" and that the jets weren't part of it either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirorob Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Love the guy at the end. "I didn't know how to.... so I taught myself." What a great mindset. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
