Paint chips and repeated head injury comes to mind when I read the thread..... You should probably seek professional help for those conditions.

Trust me. I was rooting for wins then too. And safe in the knowledge that my rooting, or anybody's rooting for that matter, does not affect the Jets' draft position in the slightest, I will continue to root for wins. All together now...J! E! T! S!...Jets, Jets, JETS! i'm sorry i can't...i'm not speaking to the Jets right now... ?

To Jets Fan RI, your fandom is every bit as legitimate as my fandom ... it's just different.
You want to win, you want to beat the other team to a pulp .. vanquish the opponent, and stand over their carcass.
It is a totally valid sentiment. It is about the moment in front of you, your soldiers versus their soldiers.
Me ? I don't care about the weekly wins, I don;t care about making the playoffs, I don't even care about the journey to the Super Bowl.
All I care about is winning the F*cking Super Bowl, that's all I care about .. okay,apart from good morning stool formation, winning the F*cking Super Bowl is all I care about. (Yeah, I like asterisks)
Asinine, moronic .. granted but individual wins in a non playoff season to me are like running into an old girlfriend. I get to snap a few wrinkles out but I know in the end that's all I get.
I want to blow my load on the Silver Trophy. Until that day comes, my hand is working overtime.

Of course I realize you intended to say that I need the help I advised you to get. But as in marshal arts, I used the force of your thrust against you. All in good fun of course, one Jet fan to another.

I very much appreciate your validation. I wonder if there is anyplace else on the web where fan of a team has to defend wanting his team to win. And I understand you wanting to win the SB. I have a friend who is a fan of the Bears, and he feels the same way about his team as you feel about yours. If the Bears can't win the SB in a given season he wants them to lose every game. (With the Packers being a noted exception.) And certainly I want to get the silver trophy too. But with 40+ years since the last one, I need at least a smaller fix on a more frequent basis. I am honestly encouraged by the frequent success of some teams that it really isn't really necessary to always pick at the top of the draft. Just get good folks in the organization who know their stuff and success will come. Including a Lombardi.

The same goes for the GM, all those people care not about the name on the jersey but American dollars and their kid's college fund. The rest of us, pay our dollars for tickets when we can afford them, merchandise, beer, hotdogs, cable service ... because we want to feel like Gods on Sunday in our miserable pathetic fire-fly lives. My life is no longer salvageable by the Jets beating the Titans. In truth ... in reality it's not salvageable by the Jets winning the Super Bowl. But we aspire to a moment of transcendence before we jump into a river or take some quaaludes and we meet meet our mother/father/grandmother/grandfather face-to-face in the next non-existent life. I feel that frequent +8 win seasons do not translate to super bowls. Look at my fellow Ginger, Dalton, leading the Bengals whacking the wise ass Johnny Football. Very respectable record, very respectable qb, very respectable coach but does anyone think for a minute that Andy Dalton is going to win a Super Bowl in his lifetime ? Not unless Ginger Aliens inhabit the planet and give Andy a 20+ point advantage to begin every game is Andy ever going to win a Super Bowl. That's reality, cruel as it is. A Super Bowl for us sad suckers who need it more than Trophy Wives/CEO Husbands or Porsches or a few lines of Coke/business section of the New York Times, is closure on our lives as ants. That moment is a Super Bowl victory. The rest is just waiting until our number is called, at the DMV or death.

I am afraid, my friend, you may be setting yourself up for a life of misery, however long you may have. Think of the Red Sox who spent some 70 years between World Series trophies. Or the Cubs. Think you can last another 25+ years for a SB victory? Learn to appreciate the little victories and I think you'll be happier. At least a bit.

OK. You're cutesie little animated figures show you think the guy is old. Fine. What that means is he's seen a LOT of Heisman QB's. Now, can you say anything intelligent about the comment he made? Seriously if you're going to that fossil Warner Wolf as a reference you're going to get flamed. Anyone can look up those Heisman winner stats and figure that out. It doesn't mean that EVERY Heisman winner has been bad. No one her is going to get a boner of beating a bad Titans team, except you and Rex. If meaningless wins at the end of the year keep Rex (doubtful) and Idzik (maybe) here I don't want them. Let the losses mount so Woody WILL clean house and start over.

With the Yankees losing the first two games, my hope that the series would go to six games did not look so good. Their luck turned and they won the next four games with John Wetteland recording the final out to capture the World Series. I looked on from the stands as Wade Boggs rode on the back of a police horse around the outfield. I am a much bigger football fan than a baseball fan, I need a Jets Super Bowl before I die, after that the worms can have me.

If you want to make a point it would come across with more effectiveness if you would address the content of what someone said, rather than making an impudent comment about his age, which is completely irrelevant. His point, which anyone could have looked up but he actually did, is that in the 80 years of the Heisman only 3 QB Heisman winners ever did anything in the NFL. That fact alone shows how futile it is to throw games in the current season merely for a chance at a QB who likely will be an NFL dud. So it should give anyone who actually wants the Jets to lose a good reason to feel differently.
