kelly Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 fyi : the book is due out sept. 1. ~ ~ J-E-T-S! JETS! JETS! JETS! Comprised of exclusive interviews with Jets players, coaches, and other figures surrounding the organization, Sack Exchange: The Definitive Oral History of the 1980s New York Jets is an eye-opening account of a memorable era in one team’s history, which also takes a step back and looks at the state of the National Football League as a whole during the 1980s. From the events that shaped the 1980s Jets, such as the legacy of Joe Namath, to their multiple playoff appearances during the decade, each triumph and disappointment is chronicled and supplemented with insider information. Other highlights include examinations of the beginning of the Jets’ rivalry with the Miami Dolphins; the controversial firing of head coach Walt Michaels; the defensive line, given the nickname “The New York Sack Exchange”; and steroid use by certain players and throughout the NFL. Featured are original interviews with Joe Klecko, Mark Gastineau, Marty Lyons, Abdul Salaam, Wesley Walker, Al Toon, Ken O'Brien, Richard Todd, Pat Leahy, Walt Michaels, and Joe Walton, among many others. > http://www.facebook.com/gregprato Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billo83 Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 Ughh, just reading the name Joe Walton makes me sick. To think we went from Walt to Walton. I'm convinced the Jets would have won a championship with Walt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
