#27TheDominator Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 The Jetnation mission statement never mentions liking the Jets. We are just "devoted to all things Jets." Including being enraged at them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadienJetsFan Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 1 hour ago, Jetsfan80 said: Yep. The players and coaches change. We don't, and are stuck with the franchise thru every regime change. We're all just a bunch of angry old men at this point. And no, changing teams really isn't an option for nearly all of us. I can't just quit and become a Giants or Steelers fan. Gross. I'd stop watching the NFL altogether rather than stop being a Jets fan. So we're stuck. YUP…me on Sundays after the game… 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JKlecko Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 On 7/9/2024 at 5:31 PM, Nolder said: I thought this was a fan forum for people who like the Jets I’m confused. How long have you been a fan of the Jets? You sound young. For those of us who have been fans for 40-50 years, we are tired of stupid, clueless owners who continually make horrible hires at GM and HC, who make terrible draft choices and who can't do their jobs competently. Haven't you ever heard the expression that "there's a thin line between love and hate?" I think most fans do still love/like the Jets, but there are some, whom I think have passed over into hate. They are so filled with bitterness, negativity, and cynicism that they have no hope and they criticize everything about the Jets. They claim they have no choice, that once one becomes a fan, one is a fan for a lifetime. I think that's utter nonsense! We chose to become fan of the teams we like at some point in time, and we can choose to no longer follow and root for a team and/or be bothered by dumb moves they make. Sports and rooting for a team are supposed to be fun. I used to be a fan of ACC basketball. Not any more. I chose to walk away, and I don't miss it. I was huge Yankee fan growing up, and eventually Steinbrenner and the losing turned me off, and I didn't follow baseball or the Yankees for years. I just started following them a little a couple of years ago, mostly due to Judge. I've come close to quitting on the Jets before. Before JD was hired, I was ready to walk away. When he was hired, I got renewed hope, but by mid-season last year, I had lost hope, and was ready to walk away again. I took a break for several months and refreshed by mind. This is probably it for me. If they fail this year, I'm probably done. If they fall on their faces this year, have zero confidence in Woody hiring a competent GM and/or HC that will make a difference. I think Woody's incompetence and meddling undermine anything good a GM or HC might do. I've been following the team for 59 years and have experienced enough frustration and embarrassment for 2-3 lifetimes because of this team. I'm not a masochist. I won't be a hanger on out of habit or because I feel I have no choice, and be a Debby downer for everyone else. Once I reach that point, I will simply walk away. Life's too short to continue to do something that brings frustration instead of enjoyment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I can't get in a twist about the Jets not drafting a better prospect in round five of the draft. Too many people going to bed hungry.

I get asked how I can root for them. I have friends who are Browns and Raider fans, misery makes for great drinking buddies. My Ladyfriend whom I've been with for almost 3 years often says supporting the Jets is like S & M just no whips or chains involved. Just pain and humiliation.

SoFlaJets Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 Because of Ownership's mismanagement- we have the worst team owner in the history of all New York professional sports teams.

WeCantDraftGoodQBs Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 Because after watching us win our 1st and only Super Bowl back in 1968 I never thought we would pass the 1/2 century mark without having another Super Bowl appearance (forget even winning another Super Bowl). Now I’m just hoping we can get back to the SB before we hit the full century mark in about 40 yrs from now. Of course I will be long dead by that point, but at least some of you younger guys will still be around to hopefully see the miracle of our Jets getting back to the promised land again one day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He now has a top 3 talent wise team in the league and about to go 13-4 if his qb stays healthy. Woody has been a very solid owner snd Post UK Woody will be a champion. Accept it jet fans.
