how the Jets celebrated after beating the Patriots
a Jets’ cheerleader on the win over the Patriots
How the Jets confused Tom Brady and Bill Belichick.
And now the opposite – the Jets just had more talent than the Patriots.
Mark Sanchez got front page treatment in the New York Times Tuesday.
**starts convulsing**
January 19th, 2011 at 8:51 AM
The best part of that Jimmer clip is watching body language of the opposing coach after the shot. It looks like he’s about to start yelling at his players and then realizes that there isn’t shit you can do about a guy hitting shots from that far out. Awesome.
January 19th, 2011 at 8:51 AM
CJ – They won’t beat Pitt so I have to get it all out of my system
January 19th, 2011 at 8:57 AM
I’m rooting for NYJ, but after reading how they celebrated I think the Steelers whoop that ass. Those players seem to think they’ve already won the super bowl.
January 19th, 2011 at 8:57 AM

January 19th, 2011 at 8:59 AM
I thought about that for a little, but I’m tired of thinking of what might happen. I just want the damn game to start already. Fuck this work week.
January 19th, 2011 at 9:00 AM
just root for your team already…enough with the hedging.
January 19th, 2011 at 9:02 AM
wha? didn’t you predict a Jets win yesterday?
I’m on the Jets bandwagon for two weeks, so no surprise if it crashes and burns.
January 19th, 2011 at 9:02 AM
Monkeys. Back. All that jazz.
January 19th, 2011 at 9:03 AM
I swore he did. 23-21. I can go back and find it if I have to.
January 19th, 2011 at 9:03 AM
if they do win and we have 2 weeks of this reverse jinx shit, it may become intolerable around here.
January 19th, 2011 at 9:03 AM
That’s the nice thing about being a fan of a loser team, no need for hedging.
January 19th, 2011 at 9:04 AM
I can safely say the Steelers win the matchup when it comes to the coaches wives.
January 19th, 2011 at 9:04 AM
i’m not sure the bears should have celebrated beating the seahawks

They were talking about the field at Soldier last night and how it will benefit Cutler because it could neutralize Matthews…that’s adorable

January 19th, 2011 at 9:11 AM
well the talent is subjective, isn’t it?
Who is to say who has the better DL talents- the jets (old, terrible year, big draft need) or the Pats?
Jets sacked Brady 5 times, pressured him a lot; Pats did nothing.
January 19th, 2011 at 9:11 AM

Luther Campbell is awesome. He really struck a chord with us white middle class teens back in the day. I had all of those singles.

That is an awesome face on Brady. He looks like a bad actor seeing a ghost in a low budget horror movie.
January 19th, 2011 at 9:14 AM
Yeah TBL definitely picked the Jets to win. He wants to have it both ways.

Emma is better with dark hair. Had higher expectations for her after Superbad.
January 19th, 2011 at 9:15 AM
People smarter than I have said those sacks are totally on the coverage. Most of the time(except for when Ellis barreled through the line to get him) Brady had plenty of time to throw. Jets DBs should get some credit for those.

You know who should get all that credit? The wonderful, amazing football player named Bernard Pollard.
January 19th, 2011 at 9:17 AM
Emma Stone looks good as a red head (strange to say) but there’s nothing wrong with mixing it up with some blonde for a bit. When they showed her during Downey Jr.’s monologue, I was like whoa.

I’m sure Duffy will have a negative post about this later today, but Michigan hired the Ravens DC Greg Mattison to the same position. He and Hoke go way back.

Super Bowl 39 was about those guys (well, Warren and Seymour). Completely owned the Eagles O-line (Hank Fraley must never watch that game), moved the line of scrimmage backwards every play.

Listen, I know how you guys respond to women with some cleavage showing but January Jones looked HORRIBLE at the golden globes. Just because your tits are hanging out doesn’t mean you look good. The dress was hideous.

I can’t wait for people to line up to be the first to praise Hoke after bashing the “hiring process,” as if that freaking matters. Pete Carroll was No. 8 on the list of coaches USC wanted to hire. No one cares about the process, they care about results.

Yeah Ty Warren wouldve been nice to have but even having Wright or Brace, who both went out right before the playoffs wouldve been huge. The Pats line was Wilfork with a bunch of walk ons and has beens.

Jesus, that Gil Meche piece by Pos is predictably depressing.
He did not make the Royals a winner or anything close because he could not, because the Royals had a mostly lousy team with no noticeable strengths except for a little bit of right-handed pitching. But he was a lot like the Black Knight from Monty Python. He kept on fighting, all the while shouting “It’s only a flesh wound.”

I remember before the LSU title game the next year Herbie was talking about how OSU was going to win because they returned most (all? dont recall) of the o-line and that by losing the previous year they now could win. That was when I knew they would lose, because if they sucked the previous year, chances are they sucked that year.

The NCAA is such a joke. UGA had to report 14 secondary violations (for various sports) and one of them was a volleyball coach sending recruiting information via Priority Mail rather than standard. Seriously?
January 19th, 2011 at 9:54 AM
They celebrated beating their arch nemesis (whether the Pats care to admit it or not) on their field. I mean, a decade of getting your dick punched in and you want them to be subdued? Not everyone can or wants to be a s Belichickian as your team.
The Steelers beat the Ravens in the playoffs ALL THE FUCKING TIME. Stop trying to manipulate the narrative.
January 19th, 2011 at 9:55 AM
There’s a big difference to mocking an ostentatious celebration that a no-talent peacock, steroid-using hack who talked trash before the game employed and the way the Jets and their fans have handled this. It’s their right to celebrate any way they want but it’s insecure small-penised male bravado like I’ve never seen. You win, celebrate dance around, make a foot joke fine, but idle threats from a pussy like LT and Bart Scott spewing vagina herpes out of his mouth shows a complete lack of character in my mind. Rex should be the only one allowed to talk trash for them, he’s the only one that does it like a man IMO.

Really though this is a league where players celebrating a sack when they’re down 28 in the fourth quarter is normal. Someone dropped a steamer in the character pool long ago.

Texas gets $15 million a year from ESPN for a Longhorn Network, via SBJ Twitter feed (via Clown’s twitter feed).
Wasn’t that part of their agreement with the Big XII that made them stay?

My bad.
Everyone is fired the fuck up this morning. God forbid this team win the Superbowl.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:01 AM
The NCAA is such a joke. UGA had to report 14 secondary violations (for various sports) and one of them was a volleyball coach sending recruiting information via Priority Mail rather than standard. Seriously?
yet some rational people think that only football players will be paid, and none from any other sports, even though all sports are looked at equally by the NCAA

January 19th, 2011 at 10:02 AM
Good for OSU, but seeing as how none of the 5 were going to be 1-2 round picks, it’s not that shocking. If they each got a draft grade of 1-2, they’d be gone (or at least some of them would have been). OSU should be the cream of the Big10 once again. Can’t wait to see Pelini try and deal with Pryor’s legs next year. Should be good stuff.

In fairness, the author said FBS football would break away from the NCAA.
But yeah, in addition to a whole host of other complications, I still don’t think adding a whole bunch of money into the equation is going to somehow make things more fair and more open. Life doesn’t work like that.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:04 AM
No…this is nothing huge. Fox Sports pays Florida $10 mil a year for all Florida sports rights.
Georgia and Alabama have similar deals.

You can call it butthurt, I came on here Monday and congratulated the you on the win. My world is not turned upside down. I lost my over the top reactions to games after SB 42. I’m entitled to my opinion on how the Jets and their fans have handled this one and I stated that is what it is. I live in Jets country so it’s not like I only see it on this blog.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:04 AM
This. I hate that he’s a UGA boy. I can’t stand Ward. He’s a fucking punk.
The Big12 is not feasible at this stage. They will have to add two teams (quickly) or the conference will disband.

It’s not Hines’ fault that Keith Rivers has shitty tactical awareness.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:06 AM
I could’ve seen Herron and Adams leaving.
Boom has some young guys breathing down his neck. His playing time may be limited upon his return.
Adams had a pretty decent year and his measurables (6’8″, 325) may have gotten him into the late 2nd.
At least we know that Pryor will have fresh legs and be injury free for the Huskers.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:07 AM
Jersey… you’re wasting your time. For as much shit as you and your team are taking for being “bad winners” the Pats and their fans sure are a bunch of sore losers.
You can’t win, just let them bluster and they’ll eventually tire themselves out like a child throwing a tantrum.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:07 AM

January 19th, 2011 at 10:09 AM
I completely disagree…they will see TV revenue go down some, but Texas and Oklahoma won’t falter.
The only way I see the Big 12 dying is if the SEC runs in and grabs two teams.

January 19th, 2011 at 10:12 AM
Very true. I would expect the NCAA to keep the suspensions in full, to be honest. But that’s just going by the AJ Green scenario. I know OSU fans seem to be rather confident about getting some games knocked off.
They’re amazing, but I would never have bought one myself. Way too pricey ($300+).
January 19th, 2011 at 10:12 AM
Did you really want to play the Buckeyes without those guys? I don’t seem to remember you calling for them to miss the game BEFORE you lost.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:13 AM
I did like the one Giants player this year pretending he was getting tased. I appreciate creativity.

Habs are getting crushed by injuries. Cammalleri is a minimum of 2 weeks, that’s a big loss.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:14 AM
Would Boom even haven been drafted? He looked great against the Michigan “defense”, other than that, meh.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:14 AM
I think the best case scenario is a reduction of 1 game, and that may be a longshot. I think the argument OSU will make is that AJ Green sold his jersey to an agent and in the OSU case, no agents or boosters were involved.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:14 AM
That’s why it’s not feasible. Only 2 (maybe 4 if TAMU keeps improving and Mizzou does as well) will make any noise. The other 6 will be totally forgotten. You can’t have a sustainable league where 60% of the conference are constantly being shit on.

he’d probably be an undrafted free agent, if anything.
he looked really good after the wisky game, fwiw.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:16 AM
AJ sold it to a runner for $1,000. Pryor is on the hook for more than $2,500. I could see a game being knocked down for some of the other players, but not Pryor. I also expect the NCAA to do nothing of the sort because they’ve looked so bad in the handling of the Sugar Bowl issue. Having said all that, the NCAA does shit that baffles me, so maybe they’ll knock it down to 2 games or some shit like that.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:16 AM

You live and you learn cleet. Sometimes it takes the deletion of a piece of internet real estate to know that losing isn’t the end of the world.

Haven’t TT and Ok St been pretty decent the last decade or so?

January 19th, 2011 at 10:19 AM
I could see Texas going independent. One of the few schools that could make this work as long as they find a place for the other sports.
I think OU and TAMU would be attractive to the SEC though I’m not sure there’s mutual interest.

January 19th, 2011 at 10:21 AM
That is some shady shit. Bama is going to oversign once again this year. I have to think other SEC teams (FLA and UGA, specifically) use that against them. They are going to cut some highly rated guys to make room. It’s so unethical.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:21 AM
We’re speaking in financial terms only.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:21 AM
I’m leaving all the Pats fans alone until the Jets lose a game. We obviously can’t live in peace until then.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:23 AM
I still think oversigning is a worthless advantage, Bama and Auburn are the only schools that have had any major success with it, and even then, they’ve both sucked for most of the last 10 years.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:23 AM
OK ST had it’s first 10-win season in the history of the program and that coincided with TEX having the worst year in forever. This year was an anomaly.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:25 AM
I disagree. It keeps good players off of rival’s rosters. That in and of itself is an advantage. It also creates an even more competitive environment in practice, which is a big advantage in my opinion.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:25 AM
Only 72 days, 2 hours and 56 minutes until Opening Day… then they can hate for Red Sox/Yankees. When it doubt Jersey, just remember…
January 19th, 2011 at 10:25 AM
Well then everybody’s fucked. Barely any schools athletic departments turn a profit. Most of the big schools even operate in the red.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:26 AM
So your argument is “these schools sucked until they started oversigning, which is why oversigning is a worthless advantage”?
January 19th, 2011 at 10:26 AM
Having said all of that, if UGA oversigned like Bama and AUB and had a title, I wouldn’t give a shit. I know it’s hypocritical, but I don’t care.
/Drew, Rome, Crowell, Jenkins and Mitchell…COME ON DOWN!!

the thing that pisses me off about oversigning is that OSU would NO DOUBT take advantage this coming year. the 2012 class of ohio recruits is absolutely LOADED and the bucks don’t have that many schollies to give out.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:47 AM

It’s going to be interesting to see if Hoke and Pelini can come into Ohio and get some recruits. The Sweater Vest has had that state on lock down since he arrived.
January 19th, 2011 at 10:50 AM
pelini should be able to make some inroads (it’ll help him out when he gets fired and becomes urban’s DC at OSU in 2014), but i don’t see hoke getting in there…much easier to go to nebraska than be a pariah in your homestate.
hoke has so-cal inroads tho…
