The Official: Reasons to feel sorry for Jets fans Thread - New England Patriots Forums

***PATSNUTme*** · 09-13-2006, 01:49 PM

Checked out Jets Insider this morning and they had an "official Pats suck' thread going on over there.

But, we are better than that. We are more grown up . We may even feel sorry for them.

So, I thought that we might list why we feel sorry for them and there are plenty of reasons.

Here's some of mine:

1. They haven't even been to a Super Bowl since after the actual merger of the AFL-NFL. Neil Armstrong had not walked on the moon when they played in their last Super Bowl.

2. They call themselves the "New York Jets". But they practice in Long Island and play in New Jersey.

3. They play in a stadium called "Giants Stadium".

I have more reason to feel sorry for them. What are yours?

The Jets aren't even the number one football team in their city.

The all time face of their franchise (Namath) made an ass of himself on national television.

Their awful draft history.

They actually thought they were getting one over on us by leapfrogging us to draft Dewayne Robertson a.k.a. "the beach ball with butter knives".

Do you mean when he told Suzy Kolber he wanted to kiss her in a drunken haze or when he wore nylons in a commercial? lol

Honestly, just because they partake in this sort of behaviour doesn't mean I feel comfortable doing it. Especially before the game. And especially since they're tied for first at the moment and a division rival. They can pre-game hate all they want, but I'll save my energy for Sunday.

Chad Pennington will need some more surgey on his shoulder after Sunday.

They don't have entertaining exchanges between the saintly PATSNUTme and the cosmopolitan Alk (AKA: HuskerAlk).

Little from column A, little from column B.

how about the fact that their team is 69 games under .500 all-time?

how about the fact that the colts, who have been out of the division for years, still have more AFC EAST division championships than the jets?

how about the fact that they have spent the last 35 year making complete fools of themsleves both on the football field and in the media? I mean, just last year, their fans were DEFENDING herm edwards as a viable coach!

oh I can do this all day...
