Pragmatic Bus Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 and to all of the fans who think that jets should sign a big time freeagent to prove that they will be competitive in 2007. the jets are not the yankees. this is not baseball. tangini is trying to make this team younger and more competitive, in upcoming years. the patriots are in a completely different situation. they are desparate to win now. because belly wants to retire in a couple of years and wants to win now. after getting so close this year he can smell the stentch of the SB right over the horizon. and wants to get to it by next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB isn't going to retire anytime soon. The guy lives and breathes football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pragmatic Bus Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 tangini is trying to assemble a dynasty. while belly already has the dynasty he just wants to win couple more before he retires or pull a bill cower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aec4 Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 This is a bargain basement contract in this market. The fact that the Jets didn't make him turn down a better contract before he signed with NE is a complete joke. Actually this whining about us not signing this guy or that guy is the pathetic part.

shutout Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Common sense. If they had made a run at him they would want their fans to know. Thats bull$hit mike...Its not their job to go to the press and have them tell the fans "well guys,we did our best but we failed! oh well" Its their job to move on and evaluate their full options on who out there can help them build this program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasonJet Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Prove that they did. Guess what you can't. Either they didn't or they could give 2 craps about their fans and i choose to believe the former. Oh my God yes you're totally right! Tangini doesn't care about this team at all. In fact they compelety hate this team and their mission is to sabotage the Jets and make us a horrible team! Do you realize how annoying and petulant you sound right now? Mangini got 10 wins out of a team that most people thought would win 5 last year. If you just wanna bitch and moan about the FO feel free to do it, just stop being so damn annoying about it and don't say incredibly dumb stuff like the FO "hates the fans." Grow up man.

SeniorFlaJet Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 You obviously don't understand anything about the way NFL teams operate or the way they relate to their fans which is fine but it doesn't mean you have to make personal attacks. I'msure he mean't the attack in the nicest way. However please state your credentials in the expertise of public relations, adminstration, finances and the technicalities of the CBA/NFL which would lead any of us to disagree with ECurbs analysis of you. Also I'm still waiting for a copy of your prediction for 2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've worked in the media before and even if i hadn't just from being a sports fan i know that if the jets had made an offer or an oveture to Thomas that we would know about it.

shutout Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Now c'mon guys,there's no need for those last few posts. Attack his arguement,not him. Besides,I'm a little ashamed that for the past few days,theres been 5 or 6 of us telling Mike nonstop to let Thomas go and to calm down. Hows that for irony?

Working in the media could also mean you went for coffee for the other guys, so unless you are more specific it doesn't mean diddley. You have no more knowledge of the intracacies of professional football than any of us do. Your the one who bragged about your predictions yesterday. So unless YOU post them its just more BS on your part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichardSeymour Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Both the Patriots and 49ers have made contact with the All-Pro Baltimore linebacker, who has made plans to visit both clubs, possibly starting as early as Saturday. Thomas, who finished 2006 with a career-best 11 sacks and made the Pro Bowl team for the first time, is considered the most attractive prospect in this year's free-agent class. In addition, the New York Jets are a third team that has expressed strong interest in Thomas and is determined to stay competitive in the bidding for his services, a league source said. from Don Banks at SI...

Maxman Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I'm supposed to have faith in a FO who according to you had no interest in the best FA available who would've been a PERFECT fit in the jets system and who signed for below market value? He signed for BELOW market value? Did I miss something. I thought the 1st post said he got more money than he was looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All that is Banks guessing. You wanna know how it probably went down, madmike? Free agency starts at the combines before March 1st, and all the stories and news was the Jets were looking at Adalius Thomas very seriously. They figured out his price tag, and didnt want him. So they didnt pursue him when free agency actually started. Its that simple. The Jets are 2-3 yrs from competing as long as we continue to trot out that never-will-be QB Pennington. The sooner we get rid of Pennington and find a real QB, is the day we spend big money in free agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
