Hello New York Jets fans this is Darrelle Revis. As a young player in the NFL who is "up with the times" I have created an account on your site to get closer to my fan base. I've been checking your site for the last couple of weeks and I've noticed several threads on my situation, I can't go into much detail on it but I can tell you that there has been much progress in the last couple of days. Some of you may be wondering why there is even a problem to begin with. Like all jobs there is a bussiness side. I've read several times on this site "If he really loves the sport he would have signed already." I do love this sport, most likely more then you, but thereis a difference, it's my job and I'm just securing my future because of the high risk of a career ending injury. Some of you still might not understand, but you soon won't have to worry, I'll be on the field sooner than you think ;) If anybody has any questions for me feel free the ask here or PM me. I'm a busy man so if I don't respond right away I'm not ignoring you.

um, in the highly unlikely chance that this is actually Darrelle, i just want to give you the advice to think twice about getting involved in a messageboard. Every word is scrutinized, and I just do not think any good can come to you from being here. Hey, if you want to participate and truly want to speak to your fans that is awesome and commendable, but I just envision it as going nowhere but bad. Maybe you might want to participate under a different name? Fans come on here to speak their mind and give an opinion. Sometimes we are not in possession of all the facts, such as in your contract negotiation, so things get said, and the last thing you or any player needs is to be caught up in a controversy over something you said on a messageboard that found it's way into the papers.

Like I said, this is a highly unlikely possibility, but if so, welcome to the jets!

Um can we get confirmation on this or is this Alk being an A-hole.

(In case this is actually true)

Revis, want to succeed in NY and win back any doubters? All you need to do is absolutely OWN Tom Brady. If you do, all this contract nonsense will disappear.

Don't believe me ask Alex Rodriguez about how to win over New Yorkers.

Darrelle,

I agree that you are in a business that doesn't have a lengthy career path.

My problem is that we don't know just what the problem with the contract

is that caused you to hold out this long. Its been written that its the 5 or 6 year

deal is the hold up but we don't know.

Now I will say if its the guaranteed money and if the jets are offering for example

9 million and you want 10 then I ask how much does one really need for the future.

With smart investments you can double that. So if you realy want to get in and

play lets not nickel and dime over a figure that is more than the entire

Jetnation board members will make in a lifetime.

Years ago on an old Jets rivals board, this poster is telling us he's a player in the NFL. After going round and round trying to figure who it is, one of the posters figures it out...it's Brian Finneran, WR for the Falcons.

He goes on to tell us that he is a Jets fan big time and even wears a Jets T shirt under his uniform...yeah, right. Needless to say, after a few posters doubted who he claimed to be he disappeared. Anyway, I think one of the posters he had believing it was actually him was SoFlaJets.

It's going to be a cold day in hell before I believe that this is actually Revis.

I am who I say I am. Thank you for the advice Joebabyny but I am already aware of that. Thats why I choose and will continue to choose my words carefully. To everyone else; thank you for the warm welcome!

Not so fast my man. Just a few questions to see if it's really you.

Tell me is the stress in your first name on the 1st syllable or the 2nd?

What's Ty Law's middle name?

How many sisters does Sean Gilbert have?

Who was your high school football coach?

And what position did you play in 10th grade for your high school football team?

good luck. :yawn:

Jimmy, I didn't mean for it to sound like it was a bad thing that you thought it was Finneran...I just have a difficult time believing this rookie (Revis) would take the time to come on a message board after all that he's been going through these past few weeks.

Guys,

Please refrain from all the negative talk until it can be confirmed.

and if it is really Revis, please extend a great JN welcome to him. Tell him how hungry we are for a SUPER BOWL win and wish him well from all of us. Tell him we are glad that he is one of us. GO JETS!

If D. Revis really is reading and posting (big if), I have a couple of words of advice.

1) Stay away from message boards.

2) Any of your spare time should be in extremely short supply during the next little while, so spend it reading playbooks and playing catch up. Or at the very least, don't give people ammunition by showing up on message boards.

Then why did a 6:00pm post cite "much progress in the last couple of days" instead of "I just signed the contract"? Particularly since Tannenbaum started putting microphones out in preparation of a press conference at like 6:15.

I'm just glad he's finally signed. Not that he's going to see much action until November if there are other healthy bodies at this point.
