I don't know if it's been said yet, but it looks like firejohnidzik.com was a smashing success. All those naysayers denied the influence that the banners, towels, billboards, etc. would have and what do you know - it worked. Power to the people!!! This proves that we fans do have a voice!

Absolutely right.
Or...maybe he just got fired because he sucks and his boss knew it, and not because of a lame-ass billboard some clown with too much time on his hands put together.
It's definitely one or the other though.

Cheers. The dopes succeeded in showing that they were emotional, ill-informed and capable of making Woody wet his pants, make a bad decision based upon incomplete data that will possibly scare away (see two GM prospects that turned down the Jets for an interview) the top talent at Coach and GM. Why would any top talent come here knowing that the owner is easily influenced and there job could be in jeopardy so quickly and without time to implement a long-term plan?

I must have missed the 'Hire Ron Wolf" and "Hire Chuck Casserly" billboards.
But I am excited to see who these billboard people pick next for the our head coach. I may even take a spin over by MetLife just in case, for an early peek.

Zero empirical evidence back any of this up. What it showed me is that we have a passionate, INFORMED, fanbase that wants our owner to do the right thing. Personally, I donated hundreds of dollars to firejohnidzik.com and I am glad to say that my investment paid off.

It's definitely one or the other though. Why can't it be a little bit of both? I don't think Woody made his decision solely based on firejohnidzik.com and its associated activities, but it definitely did its part in keeping Idzik on the hot seat. The chances of Idzik getting fired still would have been very high, but it's nice to think that us fans do have a voice in how the organization is run.

Not that I think Idzik should have been retained but I have to say, the first few years of Seatlle's drafts preceeding their Superbowl, and coinciding with Pete Carroll's tenure there, were considered head scratchers at best and monstrous misses at worst, by the vast majority of the media and so-called experts. If their owner hadnt had faith and trust in the GM/scouts and stuck it out, they'd likely be treading water just like us. I was really surprised that Woody acted that fast in firing someone that he had invested so much in finding.

The 2010 Jets draft looked genius compared to the 2013 one. Idzik is the absolute worst executive in Jets history and it really isn't close.

Barnum's hypothesis? Bravo!

Looking forward to your equally substantial donation to the Hampur which will give you infinitely more ROI.
Alternatively, you should have just sent Woody a frisbee-gram requesting he fire Idzi.
