Is it getting harder to hate the Jets?

[PromisedLand]

No Parcells, no Curtis Martin, no Mangini, no Rex Ryan, a head coach who preaches respect ... what the heck is going on out there?

 

[letekro]

Never really been good enough to hate, IMO.

 

[RedSleevesPinkStripes]

Still Jets fans, Jets ownership, NYJFL... so no, its not.

No Woody Johnson is an a-hole and that organization is rotten on the inside.

With that said I have no issue with Todd Bowles or Fitzy.

 

[Ross12]

No

 

[Froob]

Rex was hilarious, not sure why people hate him.

 

[BobDigital]

I can still bring up the hate but it is harder to hate the actual team. Even the member of the team I hate the most (Revis) I can't bring it in me to hate that much. I think overall the team now is a well run and fairly classy organization particularly for football standards when the word classy is thrown around rather liberally.

However as another poster said their fans and ownership leave much to be desired. Though I have had good experiences with many Jets fans but it is a mixed fan based. You get some of the best and some of the worst fans in that mix. However I will say as far as NY football fan bases go the Bills and Giants are clearly superior to them.

As much as I hated the Jets when Rex Ryan was HC, the only type of Jets team I hate more is a good Jets team.

 

[Galeb]

As others have noted, Woody Johnson is more than enough reason to hate them. Charlie Casserly makes it impossible not to

Rex was hilarious, not sure why people hate him.

Yeah, I think Rex is funny. But still hate the Jets, always will. It will be nice to be able to bury their playoff chances next week.

Did the Pats ever get their 1st round pick back in 2008?

Did the Rats tamper with Bill Parcells as the Pats were preparing to play a Superbowl?

Did the Rats deserve the punishment they received from the league, regardless of them acting like the aggrieved party?

Did the Rats block BB from talking to the Pats about their HC position, while the Pats have always allowed their coaches to interview with other teams for promotions?

Have the Rats been given preferential treatment by the league since Goodell became Omissioner?

Do the Rats routinely use "the Pats do it too" as their defense when accused of wrongdoing?

Did Spygate COINCIDENTALLY happen to occur in Rats stadium the first season after Mike Kensil became Director of Game Operations under Goodell?

Did the Rats get away with tampering with Revis, and not only get the player, but also a slap on the wrist by the Omissioner, in contradiction of the precedent Goodell himself had established?

Have the Rats tampered with other Pats players, like Dion Branch?

Yes, I still despise the Rats, nothing is too bad for them.

 

[Fixit]

Still hate them, but Rex took a lot of my hate with him to Buffalo. I have no idea why anyone thinks he's funny, and he's a terrible coach.

 

[Halifax_Pats_Fan]

I like their head coach and their team is doing well this year. Fan base is still weird.

I would think 21 would be on 15. See how that goes the first quarter, then mix in double coverage throughout.

It was nice they held High out yesterday, even though it seems he could have played. Always nice to have a healthy Collins out there. Others continue to get healthy.

Get over this hump and we will be a tough out in January...

 

[BTTA]

There is less of an odor, but that's just superficial. The core rot remains. If they actually make the playoffs, that will more than make up for the fact that the head coach is (apparently) no longer a joke or personally obnoxious.

We at Patsfans must remain united in the denial of any satisfaction, self-worth, or sense of accomplishment reflected from the Jets onto their fans. That's a sociological imperative that is critical to national well being. It is much bigger than football.

 

[YOUGOTMOSSED]

No Parcells, no Curtis Martin, no Mangini, no Rex Ryan, a head coach who preaches respect ... what the heck is going on out there?

It's never been easier. Their owner got a pass for blatant contract tampering then gloats when the hammer comes down on Brady for a fabricated charge of equipment violation. NY is the epicenter of league corruption. Their fanbase is the paragon of poor sportsmanship.

In short, f*ck 'em.

 

[PatsFanSince74]

Woody Johnson.

 

[Kdo5]

Never. There's no team more despicable than the Jets.

 

[Fencer]

I lived in Manhattan for ~15 years, so I hope I can be excused from the most severe Jet-hating.

 

[TomPatriot]

I will stop hating them when the franchise disbands.

Woody, Kensil, fans . . .
