JETS SUCK 2025 EDITION (OFFICIAL): DIVINE INTERVENTION DENIED

[Tunescribe]

​

Jete (pron. jeet): 1. formerly Jets, New Jersey-based quasi-professional football team renamed by retired player Tony Richardson during the 2017 National Football League draft.

stank (pron. staynk): 1. a past of stink; 2. condition endemic to the New Jersey Jete, characterized by a mixed odor of burnt hair/used motor oil/rotting swamp flora accompanying feelings of despair and futility from on-field ineptitude.

savior (pron. sayv-yore): 1. one that saves from danger or destruction; 2. one who brings salvation; 3. New Jersey Jete designation for new quarterbacks assumed capable of delivering a championship. Seriously. That's how the poor souls think.

Jetsy (pron. jetz-ee): 1. The New Jersey Jete tendency to ruin good things through terrible decisions, boneheaded plays or catastrophic fate.

Wash ... rinse ... repeat?​

As the saying goes, you can’t make this stuff up: a sitcom pilot scripted from Jete history would be summarily rejected as too outlandish. “Grotesque” might be a better term, suggesting the horror series fans swear they’ve been watching all along. And in that vein, circumstantial evidence of diabolical forces at work appears overwhelming.

Quarterback Joe Namath, face of the wayward franchise for six decades, remains a key culprit. He made a Faustian pact -- selling his soul to the devil -- for an underdog’s win vs. Baltimore in Super Bowl III. Thus, an improbable 1969 championship sealing the team's subsequent years of title-free futility. This ongoing streak of bad luck is interpreted as the “Faustian freight,” or curse; the price of that single win paid forward through the balance of Namath’s earthly incarnation. Adding credence is Joe’s famous “guarantee” of a Jete victory days before the game. His supreme confidence offers evidence of inside knowledge confirming a fixed outcome or demonic pact.

Now-former Jete player Aaron Rodgers, the latest casualty in a long line of failed franchise “savior” quarterbacks, last December affirmed what team representatives have been reticent to address. “It might be some sort of curse we’ve got to snap,” he said regarding New Jersey’s 56-year championship drought. Rodgers was quoted after receiver Garrett Wilson previously suggested that a “losing gene” might explain the team's struggles.

The curse has manifested in various fashions including but certainly not limited to: the infamous “butt fumble,” future Hall of Famer Rodgers’ Achilles tendon tear four plays into his first season, the seemingly endless carousels of head coaches, general managers and highly drafted quarterbacks, bizarre sexcapades involving coaches and players, owner Woody Johnson’s uncanny ineptitude, etc., etc. In 1979 a remote-controlled lawnmower, part of a halftime show, veered into the stands injuring spectators. There was quarterback Brett Favre’s 2008 season-spoiling biceps injury after a promising 8-3 start. In 2020, the Jete were 0-13 enroute to securing the No. 1 overall draft pick then won two of their last three games; the consolation prize was QB flop Zach “Punky McMilfson” Wilson.

Again, in Jete land truth remains stranger than fiction. The latest weird twist involves allegations by ex-players, former team officials and outside observers that Johnson’s teen-age sons, Brick and Jack, have meddled in front office player personnel decisions. Citing over 20 anonymous team sources, The Athletic alleged in December, 2024 that Johnson's sons had an “influential role” in roster considerations. The article also claimed Johnson nixed a trade for wide receiver Jerry Jeudy because one son cited the player’s low Madden NFL videogame rating.

True to form, the Jete entered their 2025 campaign with question marks leading what widely is deemed a talented roster: a rookie head coach in former star player Aaron Glenn (their third in five years) and a prospective liability at starting quarterback in journeyman Justin Fields. Adding intrigue is the fact that Glenn introduced Bible study into the team's training regimen -- tacit acknowledgment of dark powers messing with franchise fortunes, perhaps?

Once more, fans are left pondering whether yet another season of SOJ (Same Old Jets) is on tap. Meanwhile, Broadway Joe reportedly enjoys excellent health at a sprightly 82 years young.

The NFL still is investigating allegations that Williams ran a similar bounty program during his stint with the Washington Redskins.

* Journeyman exec Joe Douglas is hired as Jete General Manager just three months before start of the 2019 season.
* More evidence that being with the Jete drives players to drink and menace society: after pleading guilty to a 2018 DUI charge, tight end Chris Herndon faces a likely suspension to start the 2019 season. Also, former Jete defensive lineman Muhammad Wilkerson is arrested in New York City and charged with DUI on June 1, 2019.
* Levon Belch creates another distraction by calling 911 to report that two women he left naked in his bed to go to the gym stole $1M worth of cash, jewelry and clothing from his Florida home on May 25, 2019. Police promise to investigate once they stop laughing.

I still prefer JEST, because the entire organization is, collectively, a gigantic joke, and a desperately unfunny one, at that.

You've totally outdone yourself again!

A reminder of how low da Jetes have gone:

Yes it DID take you over 45 minutes to read all that. And Yes you did have to be here the ENTIRE past 25 years to get it all. AND Yes , some of it was DAMNED funny. (and some was a bit sad).

And even some of it required you to be around for the ENTIRE more than half century. I remember watching that 69 game in my Frat house TV room rooting on the upstart AFL and that meant rooting for the NY Jets... for that day so long ago.

Regardless, it will always be one of my favorite games. Weeb Ewbank and his coaches did a fabulous job.

I was a young teen at the time and admittedly a big NFL fan who never took the AFL seriously. So I was kind of sad and shocked when Baltimore lost. I remember asking my dad -- himself a longtime, well-respected coach at the high school level -- how/why the Colts got beat when heavily favored. His reply: "That's what makes the game so great."

 

[Mike the Brit]

You do well to point out to us that a new generation of entitled owners is being prepared, so we must not assume that the day is near when the JETE is "just another team".

Thank you on behalf of the Patsfans community and all right-minded football fans.

 

[BTTA]

Well done, Tunes. I don't know how you find new ways of expressing all that every year, and I am forever impressed and indebted.

Worth every minute.

If anything Woody "Footballs are Stuffed with Feathers" Johnson gets off too easy...he's a spoiled, rich kid who treats the Jets like a toy choo-choo train he can break and his daddy will buy him a new one. The Board of J&J won't let him anywhere near the C-Suite of the company his grandfather built. Pats fans should thank God every morning for Bob Kraft!

And, yes, I too watched the 1969 game and was happy that an upstart team had won and a QB had willed his team to victory...

 

[DC Patriots]

Well done, Tunes. I don't know how you find new ways of expressing all that every year, and I am forever impressed and indebted.

Outstanding as always. I was going to suggest “Jet Stank Can’t Really Be Heaven Scent,” for the subtitle

[Bill Lee]

Well, you're not wrong, but Jete feels like it's our thing here at PF.

For those who might not know, the origin story is that a JETE player could not spell the name of his own team correctly when asked to announce their new draft pick on national TV.



So, yeah, it is our thing, but like the Buttfumble it started out because it was their thing and they need to own it.

LOL, that is perfect.

It reminds me that in some parts of Germany the smell of cow manure is referred to as "Bavarian Perfume".
