crashingjet Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Just a little something I thought I'd share with you guys. This was posted over at thephins.com. Some of you might know who Rich Cimini is but for those who don't know...he is the beat writer for the NY Jets and writes for the NY Daily News. He also has some columns in The Sporting News and does a some TV and Radio spots here in NY. Well I am a train conductor here in NY and he sometimes travels my train. I collect his ticket and I do recognize him but I try to leave him alone most of the time as he is either reading over notes or typing on his computer. Well today he got on my train with his wife and 2 children and from what I gathered from his wife they were running late and did not get tickets before getting on board. Buying tickets on the train is almost DOUBLE the price and round trip for the 4 of them into Manhattan would have been about $50. He looked like he had a very nice family so I smiled and asked him if he would be willing to make a deal..... So I said to him I would waive the service charge for his family if he would say in front of a very crowded train...that he LOVED the Miami Dolphins and is a HUGE fan. He smiled and shook his head and asked if I was serious...I said I was....he said in a CLEAR and LOUD voice that he LOVED the Dolphins and has been a Dolphin fan for years..I said...good man!...and saved him some money. He was a pretty good sport. Just thought it was a pretty funny story http://forums.thephins.com/showthread.php?t=47438 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Not surprised. Sell-out. I was at a college baseball game against regional rival East Carolina the other day. A friend I was with was offered free stuff at the concession stand if he said "Go Pirates!". He basically told them to shove it. Cimini is a reporter, not a fan.

crashingjet Posted April 3, 2010 Author Share Posted April 3, 2010 Dolphins fans clinging on to the little relevance they have. Cute. (snort) Yeah, like a team that backed into the playoffs and then got crushed by the team that rested their starters at the end of the regular season. Clinging to that kind of relevance?

Vudu Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 LOL@ this trollish post. The funniest part is that you think we give a frog's fat ass about what Rich Cimini says on the train. He's a beat writer who gets paid to cover the JETS, not a Jets fan... idiot. let me find out LIRR conductors are giving discounts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Banner Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 I heard a story once about Bill Parcells. Some guy told me that the Jets tried to hire him to be the coach of the Jets and he said YES in a loud voice right in front of everybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinging to that kind of relevance? Indy did nothing until Shonn Greene and 3 of our starting defensive backs got hurt.The only thing Manning figured out in that game is that the starters were on the sidelines........

El Gringo Loco Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 (snort) Yeah, like a team that backed into the playoffs and then got crushed by the team that rested their starters at the end of the regular season. Clinging to that kind of relevance? Crushed? The Jets Didn't get crushed, Getting crushed is more like when the Fins got crushed 62-7 by the Jags back in 00. Even you have to admit that the Dolphins have been an absolutely pathetic team for many years. The last time that the Dolphins won a playoff game was the 00 season, the very next week after that win, the Dolphins got their a**es blown out by the Raiders 27-0. The Dolphins are a soft team with feminine colored uni's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 back in the day.. Rich did some chats here.. of course that is when we had a chat room.. i am sure that is why we dont have him doing chats here now. 1. We still have a chat room, it workd 34% of the time. 2. I think the Daily News does their own chats now. That's probably why he stopped doing chats here though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorGato Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Yeah... The Jets are "clinging" to relevance by making it to the AFC Championship game. Sooo embarrassing.
