Damn autocorrect.

 

[Genghis Khan]

Still, why would anyone be a Jets fan that's not old enough to remember Namath?

 

[Genghis Khan]

They did a ring of honor for London?


Gaaaaayyyyyy

 

[Texas Ace]

There's an NFL London ROH?

What? Why?

My best friend in college was from NY and a Jets fan. csb and all.

Why would anyone be a Cowboys fan that's not old enough to remember Aikman?

 

[1bigfan13]

He also used to be a lot younger.

This is why I never bought into all the hype surrounding the Jets. He's a 40+ year old QB coming off a major injury, and he hasn't played at a high level since the 2021 season.

Sure he's better than the trash they've been trotting out there since the Chad Pennington era, but he's not good enough to compete with the top teams/QBs in the AFC.

My son asks himself that same question every season.

Yup, same here.

I said it last year and again back before this season started how I didn't understand all the Jets hype.

Wait, what is this nonsense?

Never mind, I rewound and saw the red carpet and all.

Aikman wasn't that long ago, take that back!

Brainwashed by their parents into becoming a fan of this franchise.

The best gift I ever gave my son was not forcing the Cowboys down his throat. He became a Ravens fan and is enjoying the benefits of what a normal football environment has to offer.

What is based on though? Do those players have some sort of connection to London or is this based on how they performed in those overseas games?

If it's latter, how many games could they have even possibly played? Outside of the Jaguars, what's the most any one player could have played out there? 3 or 4? And that merits a ROH induction?

Give me a break.

Darnold and the Vikings offense does not impress me.

If it's latter, how many games could they have then possibly played? Outside of the Jaguars, what's the most any one player could have played out there? 3 or 4? And that merits a ROH induction?

Give me a break.

I was wondering how much they had to pay Jared Allen to get out of his hunting blind and fly over there.

It's fucking dumb.

 

[Genghis Khan]

Oh look, a dumb Pepsi commercial.

Today? Jets defense is still good.

 

[1bigfan13]

It's fucking dumb.

Participation trophies have spilled over into professional sports.

It started with the ghey "tribute" videos in the NBA for any halfway notable player who had a quick cup of coffee with a franchise. Now it's reached the NFL in this form.
