SoFlaJets Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Mangini talked about it yesterday at his press conference-keep your lanes baby-don't over-react.Hester seems to have a little trouble with the whirlybird punts that Ben Graham can do well-I look for a fumble on a PR Sunday resulting into Jets points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bears fans are just as scared of him fumbling inside our own 10, as you guys are of him running it back for 95 and a score.. his MO is Half Man-Half Amazing, i'm thinking the 'Man Half' is the half that scares me, while the 'Amazing Half' scares you!..

Oh no doubt the good half of his game would scare anybody in their right minds-BTW I was rooting for Chicago last post season against The Seahawks and like your team-ever since the Gale Sayers and Bobby Douglas days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I generally judge how much I like/hate a team by the fans that I know, or have met.. Hate the Phins with a passion, prolly my most hated team in the league.. but I've yet to meet a bad Jets fan, and don't know any Pats, or Bills fans.. so I'll be hoping for your Jets after this week.. Though, I'm headed to NY to see the game this week, so I'll have a bigger sample of Jets fans to sway my current opinion come Monday LOL .. I figure as long as I make it out alive I'll be allright. Might even buy a beer or 2 for a couple of Jets fans (you know, if she's hot with a twin sister) Classy site ya's got here.. almost feels like home (by home I mean DaBearz.com) Here's to a great game, win or lose..

L.I.MikeBleedsGreen Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I was at the FSU vs Miami game last time they played at FSU. I was 13 rows up from the grass at the 20yd line , So when fsu kicked the ball off, I ran down the stairs to the first row and started to yell Drop the Ball ,Drop the Dam Ball .It was so wierd b/c hester drop it caused a fumble and fsu recovered it and scored the first TD of the game . As I was making my way back to my seat the whole crowd was cheering for me and patting me on the head and shoulder saying, yeah man you caused hester to fumble that ball . I was like 5 feet away from him so I know he heard me yelling to drop the ball.That had to be the best feeling in the WORLD being the 12 th man on the team. I will never forget that game and I will tell my grand kids about it when I have some. Oh yeah, Hester is a Fumbler so all you have to do is get on him!! He also fumble again in that game thanks to me again hehehe and on the next kick off the coach had taken him out, So i think I did my Job as a 12th man.

Here's to a great game, win or lose.. Sayers was teh best back in NFL history, IMO. He could do it all, run the ball, catch passes, make people miss, return punts and kicks. He was truly a 1 man offensive machine in his healthy days. But there lies the rub. His playing time was cut short with the injuries. He really never got to show all that he can do over a long period of time, because of the injuries. Sort of like a current day Mark Prior, for the Cubbies. All the talent, but too many injuries.

It's funny that you say that, cuz that perfectly describes the Fins fan that I know, delusional!.. But not only that, he makes excuses like you would not believe, and has very lengthy, and very no-objective explainations for things that require not explanation! I like to think that Bear fans make honest assestments of our own team as well.. god knows we've had enough bad ones to recoginize talent, or lack there of.

Ditka's_Disciple Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I actually find that Hester has more of a tendancy to fumble while fielding the punt, than he does once he actually has the ball tucked away in motion. But I have seen him do both for sure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy is a real threat, but lets see how he handles the ephus ball. It also helps to not put to him deadcenter of the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
