My hatred for the fish lies at a level that only long time suffering Patriots fans will understand. It will never go away. As far as I'm concerned, the Jets are pretenders to the throne of most detested team; placed there by the blow-hard that is Rex Ryan. He is now gone and the Jets are back to the place where they belong - Irrelevance.
I will be rooting for the Jets to humiliate the fish.
I was once where you are now, mostly due to the antics of Shula. He's always been a crybaby.
Then, the Tuna Crap years came, and the truth of how low the Jets would go was revealed. That may have moved them ahead as most detested, but either way it was close.
Then Shula opened up his big mouth in 2007 about asterisks for the Pats because they were fined a 1st round pick and cash. Too bad the senile old fart forgot that his cherished undefeated season came immediately after the Dolphins were were fined a 1st round pick and cash.
And now we have the NYJFL going all out to destroy the Pats. That has moved them back up into contention for sure, but it's still too close to call for me.
In the Fish and Schits Bowl I'm hoping for the same thing I hoped for in the Balt-Pitt game. A brutally physical game. Only this time I'd like to see a 6-3 snooze-fest, just so the fans of England can see the dark side of the NFL. Actually, 3-2 would be better but that's not realistic.
I suppose the numbers would call for me to root for a Miami win, but I won't know if that will be the case until the game starts. Right now I couldn't care less who wins.
