Why is this thread still here?
Anyway, I will admit that for a split-second I actually entertained the thought that those stupid-as-fuck billboards *might* have had *some* say in John's canning but then something else happened that changed my viewpoint :
COMMON SENSE KICKED IN.
Idzik was indeed fired for being a clueless dimwit who fucked up a draft where we should've had at least one bonafide playmaker ON OFFENSE(not defense..and even there they fucked up) along with other shit like sitting on cap-space without doing anything(until it was too late) to improve the team.

paying for biplanes terrible towels and billboards to express an opinion about a sports team executive is by itself not tax deductible...solipsistic, vain and self-serving yes...all the all-day suckers that gave those dopes a C-note or more-you got bupkus, they got dinner at the 4 Seasons and a phantom tax deduction from the phantom donation they gave with the change
billboards weren't necessary to articulate/disseminate opinions on Idzik's merits to the infenitesmally small minority of the public who may have possibly cared so so deeply...facebook is free and so are a host of cliquey fan forums.

So in layman's terms, you're saying that they are DUMB for doing this whole billboard fiasco.

It was an exercise in vanity...the season was already lost, it didn't add anything to what media was saying and the ads didn't change a thing. Made the issue much too personal for my taste. IMO Idzik deserved at least 1 more year with a new coach. Whats done is done so onward and upward from here.
Was surely done in part to bring attention to the people who did it. also could have had some unintentional risk. No social good in it and will be forgotten except by Jets haters.

Really? Don't see Supporter above your Avatar.
I pledged (granted...not Gates-ish) but didn't feel the need to tell everyone. Just bustin your balls. Actually Ragu puts it there, maybe he missed you. I actually suggested the opposite. Put Freeloader on everybody's and take it off when they donate

What does that mean? I forgot myself. I had a JI flashback and was on the verge of asking for the thread to be moved to the JI Garbage Dump. I'm okay now, Ragu. Just some lingering remnants...
