see how you clowns like me now...huh?...hat's that?...I can't READ you...
You made a troll post, and now you're pouty about the responses. Yes, please feel free to use the ignore button. I'll do the same.
One of you guys should have totally posted, "GFY! ***!". Now that would have been funny.
The word is frowned upon here. Homosexuals seem to be a bit of a protected group.
Hah! It's not a knock on homosexuals. it's a knock on the posters using the term too much at JI. The "funny" would have been that after all the arguments about whether or not JI posters are homophobic, the argument comes full circle back to usung the same homophobic rhetoric in the end! See! a joke. Not an insult. But that's OK. I'm not "butthurt" by the misunderstanding. My boyfriend happens to be homosexual. Drives my wife crazy.
blondes ,however , are open season
How did the blonde burn her ear?
the phone rang while she was ironing....
Gay jokes can be funny. So long as they aren't mean-spirited. Same goes for fat jokes, racial jokes, gender jokes, ethnic jokes, etc. It's about the audience and the delivery. I agree they can cross the line. but That's why I don't engage in it. Better safe than sorry. Still, loosen up a little. This is entertainment and discussion, after all. I'd bet if you met some of those guys in a bar and left football out of it, you might actually enjoy a few new friends.
Why argue with them? Anyone who thinks Plaxico is an upgrade over Edwards is nuts! I'm beginning to believe that Jets fans in general just don't know football. They just make things up. And when you think about it, why would ANY knowledgeable fan follow a team that hasn't done anything for 42 years?
I was over viewing Jets Insider where Reality seems to be arriving VERY slowly. But arriving it is. Despite the braggadocio and inveterate trench-mouth.
They did have a long post and good discussion of how to get two good O-Linemen and a fair to good guy, Moore, along with a guy who is going to miss half the season, and an absolute Bust provide 5 starting Offensive linemen. Forget about a thing called "depth".
No matter how they tug and push and put the puzzle pieces together, D'Brick and a Mangold and maybe Moore and yes Slauson and eventually Turner in about 8 games, with Buster Ducasse, it doesn't seem to add up to five starters. And even if they find an adequate fifth guy, for some reason there does not seem to be a powerful run game there.
Their up-and-coming nominee from nowhere, was just up and cut by Rex, the other day.
Another long post discussed how the Pass Rush and pressures have steadily declined over the past two going on three years. Jester fans are sure that Devito and two rookies will provide all the pass rush needed, provided one doesn't end up in jail or deported. Depth: What's that?
Jester fans say it is no problem to replace guys like Kris Jenkins, Shawn Ellis, Jason Taylor, with" all stars" like Mike DeVito, who is a dedicated journey man, Slone Pouha and PS squad Ropati Pitoitua, not to mention the two rookies, Wilkerson and Ellis. I'm sure that Devito, Pouha and Wilkerson will play, but that is NOT a terrifying D-line for opposition OCs to dread in 2011. More sounds of whistling by the Graveyard.
s\Some other fans posted that Buriss has already suffered an ankle and back injury, and Mason doesn't seem to have any speed left. Surprise?
Still another poster noted that the running game didn't seem to be producing any results. Could it be that Ladanian is feeling his age, only three years after being dumped by the Chargers? It is all on Shone Greene now. Depth? There is always the non-entity that Jets cut Danny Woodhead to save, Joe McKnight. Another all star bust selection to join Tanney's other picks.
Still other posters are wondering if the League is catching up to Wreck's blitzes?
As holes are appearing all over the Dike, Jester fans are resolute that Tanny is a genius at scouting talent (Robertson? Gholston?? Ducasse???), and will pull multiple rabbits out of his hat, the next few weeks. As regards "depth", the Jets haven't needed it for the past two seasons. Why start now?
Meanwhile there is high hopes that Buffalo Bust, Aaron Maybin might be able to be salvaged, maybe next year, after he gains 30 pounds, that the Bills couldn't add. They all concede he has more speed than anyone on the Jets front 7, but gets readily trampled against the run.
Yes, Reality is returning. Slowly...
As a personal observation:
I am still puzzled why the Jets Boards both JI and Gangrene, are the only ones to allow this much trench-mouth, by the posters. You really don't need to swear in every sentence with sexual innuendo, but it seems to be not only the norm, but excessively the norm, almost 'de riguer'.
For blogs of interest to, and open to kids, can't they clean it up a mite? I almost feel soiled visiting there. All other team blogs whatever the city, are much cleaner.
