mattingly23 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Can someone shed some light on the stadium situation. ? I haven't lived in NYC for a few years now, and we all know that you have to be on the pats,colts,chargers or a convict to get any NFL media attention. I have been researching for awhile now , and Its hard to come by that news.. ..Thanks ...Oh yea BTW ..CHAD IS GOING TO KICK ASS THIS YEAR .. 1- Why the hell are we not getting our own house ? 2- Why the hell are we sharing with the Giants (again)? I would rather play at shea! 3- I assume When all of this goes through(building another GIANTS stadium) , we can kiss the thought of ever having our own house to play in goodbye ...

There is no other choice and it makes the most sense. 3. It will be our house, not the Giants stadium and we will love it. BZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly dont know how you decide between lollypops and candy bars. I have only said one of those three, so you can keep your candy bars. Chad is good and above average. Not great. Woody is a good owner, seems to work hard to get things done for the team, but NY politics is bigger than any one man. The Jets are Great, and that is why I am a fan. I am sure you one of those people who likes to use the oxymoron phrase of "Objective Fan" and shrouds his frustration by lashing out at everything and everyone. If it helps you sleep at night, or watch the Jets play, good for you. Some of us, the ones with a little more perspective and a more positive outlook, like to bask in the excitement of the game and our team without having to **** on it to make it stink. Strokes for folks I guess. BZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must make the "Cheerios or Corn Flakes" decision real easy in the morning. BZ I'm not a negative fan in general--I think this team is headed in the right direction. But I do think that the stadium issue is more cut-and-dry than people think. Woody demanded $300 million from a cash-strapped city suffering from an educational crisis and the aftershocks of 9/11 and refused to retool his plan even when it was clear that no politician could feasibly support it. THEN Queens practically rolled out the red carpet for the Jets...but it just wasn't good enough for Woody. I know a lot of people aren't high on Queens, and that's fine; I would have been happy with a stadium there, but I understand those who disagree. "Queens vs. Manhattan vs. East Rutherford" isn't my point. The point is: Woody never even tried to get a stadium in Queens. After the WSS debacle, he took the easy way out: he tucked tail and ran home to the waiting arms of the Giants. The fact remains: Woody had 2 chances to bring the Jets home, and he blew both of them, thanks to stubbornness and cowardice, respectively.

Bugg Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 2 football stadiums, costing a billion a piece, 8 miles apart. Yeah, that would've made so much sense. And Woody tried anyway. It wasn't going to fly in NY. Want to get mad-wait for the PSL bill. Please, these threads are like whining about the girl with the curl in 7th grade who wouldn't talk to you; GET OVER IT.

The fact remains: Woody had 2 chances to bring the Jets home, and he blew both of them, thanks to stubbornness and cowardice, respectively. You need to go back to the history books, Queens didn't roll out anything, there was just a side plan. It took YEARS to get the WSS plan ready and there was no turning on a dime and throwing it in Queens in a matter of months. Remember that the Giants were saying "Fish or cut bait" and if Woody had gone with Queens, told the Giants to go stuff and it fell threw a year later (no reason it wouldn't) the Jets would be with NO stadium, ANYWHERE. Again, if you want to blame Woody for anything, it is maybe that he should have gone for the Queens stadium from the start, 4 years ago and not wasted time on the WSS. Of course, that is hindsight and always 20/20. BZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lil Bit Special Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 All of you who want your own stadium need to get over it. Its never going to happen. Why do you people care where the games are played or who plays in the stadium??? As long as I can watch my team play 8 home games a year I dont give a sh!t where it is they play and who shares the stadium, and neither should you. As a season ticket holder, would you rather have outrageous ticket prices and outrageous PSL's for your own stadium or a modest increase in ticket prices and a modest PSL to share a stadium with the Giants, a team that doesnt cause game schedule conflicts?? Get over this hatred of the Giants. Get over the "we gotta have a team in NY because their name is NY", Get over this little man syndrome. This is a MUCH better situation than if we had the West Side stadium where we would have never been allowed to tailgate again... or a Queens stadium where alcohol consumption is prohibited in the parking lots.... This is the best possible situation for the fans. Yeah, the next 3 years will suck with parking and tailgating, but again what other solution is there???
