PatsFanTX Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 It's 3 out of 5 now and it will be going on 6 very shortly. Wrong. It was 3 out of 4, and it will ALWAYS be 3 out of 4. But I understand, Jet fans have absolutely no comprehension of what that means. Hey raffy, were you even around 37 years ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But like Jets fans who brag about winning Super Bowl III in 69, Pats fans need to stop living in the 2001-2004 past, right Tx? Or is that not considered the past for you? Newsflash: It is the past.

PFSIKH Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 The issue here of course is how much can the Patriots players TRUST the Patriots front office to watch out for their best interests if they decide to play hurt ??? I think we all know the answer to that question. The only choice really for the player is to sit out and make gosh darned sure that they are 100% healthy before risking a comeback. Heck take off the entire season for a hammy why don't you ? The implosion continues and the only question is will there be enough stationary bikes in the Trainers office to accomodate all the the buttocks that are sure to be requiring them? It is a truly a sad day when such a storied franchise is reduced to sniffing the waiver wire for cheap geriatrics. As a Jets fan I am saddened by the pus-filled mess that seems to be erupting from within the hallweed halls of Foxboro wherin is housed the most expensive season ticket seating in the NFL.... <sniff> <sniff>.... That is some good fiction there. I have not seen spin this good from anyone one other then JonE. I am sure you are right. Gay who was an undrafted FA coming out of college because of an injury. Has missed as many games as Chad over the past two season. Is going to risk his NFL payday showing the rest of the NFL he babies minor injuries. WHen your team delivers three titles, has their own stadium and pays for it on their own as opposed to being on the NFL's teet and another team's biatch..then talk to me about ticket prices.

The NFL should move that franchise to LA. Come 2010, there will be 2 teams. The Giants & the Jets because they will be sharing a stadium, basically both will be owning it, so then, in your world it will either have to be 2 or 0.

124 Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 I need a good laugh. What is the average price for Jets' tickets? Lower Tier averages from around 70-80. Mez Tier is about 90, 95? Upper Tier goes from 65-75. We pay $1400 for our 2 seats in 124 (10 games, $70 each), but I know in other parts of the LT there are $75 and $80 seats.

Would the fans up their rather have helped pay for the stadium then sit through years & years of **** ticket prices? What do ticket prices have to do with anything? Sure, the Pats have the highest ticket prices in the NFL, and still have a long waiting list for season tickets. Unlike the Jets (who don't even have their own stadium), when you put a good product on the field, fans don't care what it costs to see them play.

It was 3 out of 4 2 seasons ago, sorry but even the patriot d!ck sucking media started saying 3 out of 5 a ways back. Nah, only around 30 years ago but you can bet your a$$ I wish I was around then.

What about the medium & lower class? There are fans in the medium class who could afford to go to the games for the Pats I'm sure when they were around 60-70 a game, going up to 90-100 for a game is a huge difference when you have mouths to feed.

Not saying that Woody is a great owner but how about the teams that share stadiums in seperate sports? Sure it's not as bad as 2 teams in the same sport but still they're sharing a stadium.

Besides Chad's and Bill's bonuses . You have sold out the stadium for what 30 years? The Jets' should have been able to build a man made island and 100K seat stadium with a retractable roof.

This stadium will be the best stadium in the NFL for years to come even when others are built because the two teams will have enough money to make it great and keep re-doing it to make it the best.

What is wrong about sharing a stadium 50-50. And yes, it is sharing when it's 50-50, it's both teams owning the stadium actually. There will be no "this isn't the Jets' homefield" bull**** talk anymore because they wil OWN the stadium. If the Giants are playing in it, so be it, but both teams will own the stadium. Who really freakin' cares? If all you have now that Chad is performing (Great now his next post will have Chad in it), is that we share a stadium then whatever, your ****'s weak, as we the college students sometimes like to say.

GimmeShelter Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 You know the Pats got their butts handed to them and showed again that they aren't on the same level as the better teams around the league when their fans need to divert attention to the Jets stadium, last SB appearance etc ect......anything but Patriots talk.

faba Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Serious here for a second- you all know the cost of land acquisition with the constuction, environmental and regulatory costs for any stadium- much less in NY Metro area. I do not care who the owners would be this is a monumental task- to get the best possible deal of shared costs is actually the wisest move to try to move this forward.

Gainzo Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 It makes me laugh how the same Jets fans that despise sharing a stadium and being treated as second-class citizens now make the argument that a new-shared stadium is fantastic. All of that based on the logic that right now the Pats have the highest ticket prices in the NFL.
