Back in Zach (he aint no Cadillac).
When Aaron Rodgers went down last night, I immediately thought of the AC/DC
classic \"Back in Black\". NYJ fans are back to Zach
The Rodgers injury confirms the longstanding tale that the Jets are a cursed
franchise. I could tie this to the rumors that the fix was in for Supe III,
that the Baltimore Colts tanked, that large sums were bet, that Broadway Joe
Namath drank so much during the days leading up to Supe III that even Fairmount
may have been impressed.
So fellow cursed J-E-T-S fans: Who had a longer tenure with the NYJ? Rodgers as
QB or Belechick as HC?
This does end a long debate I have had with NYJ fans: Number 8 in your program
is the best QB ever to take the field for the Jets. Namath was a folk hero,
tough as nails, a great leader but statistically does not belong in HOF.
Yeah I\'m still mad about the cold blustery day that my dad dragged me to Shea
to watch the NYJ. Great seats -- we were closer to the jets landing at
LaGuardia than we were to the Jets on the field. Namath threw five picks and
the Broncos made easy work of the home team.
Backing up Zach: The fun name that came up was Blake Bortles. He had thrown a
bunch of pick sixes and was asked at a press conference what he planned to do
about it; his answer was that he planned to work on his tackling technique.
