who said the Jets didnt act like that?
to your points:
* This was Monday night/nationally televised, the Pats-Saints game was not. I doubt many Jersey fans saw the Pats game
ESPN choose to air this game on monday night and to celebrate the opening of a new stadium for both teams,got nothing to do with the Jets
* Even for a preseason game it was much hyped as "the battle of New York."
by who?the media?,there was never a rivalry between the Jets and the Giants and there is no bad blood,NY is big enough for two teams.
* It was a showcase event for the Green Beans unveiling their "ring of honor."
the Jets choose to respect retired players(they never had there own stadium to do that),how is that got to do with the game that was played?
* Wrecks played his starters much longer than is normally expected for a preseason opener, certainly much longer than the Giants.
that was a something he said before the game based on the date and time of the 2nd preseason game for the Jets(SAT at Carolina)where the starters will not play much.
* The Green Beans have been openly goading the Giants into "rivalry" trash talk, etc.
no,there was no trash talk or any kind of talk from the Jets about the game,the only ones who talked were Giants players, i think only Scott responed to something that was said by a Giants player.
