The Ultimate Wayne Highlight !





Vinny goes back to pass, finds Chrebet in the corner of the endzone. Another Jets comback! Wayne...we will miss you and this game was one of the many highlights! Ooops, I actually stand corrected from my brother. It wasn't Vinny who threw the ball. Look closer at the picture. I can't believe I forgot that.

Abe Trade Rumor ?


Rumor has it we are trying to trade John Abraham to the Texans to swap #1 picks. At #1, would we draft Reggie Bush or Matt Leinart???

C-Mart: A Class Act !


The Jets and Curtis Martin agreed on a restructured contract that will make it possible for the star running back to stay with the team and continue his quest to be the NFL's All-Time Rushing leader in a few years.

Martin, whose streak of 119 consecutive regular-season starts, and his 1000 yards per year streak ended with a knee injury requiring surgery last season, said he believed he "let our team down" and added, "There are a lot of things more important than money."

"I wanted to resolve the matter quietly and never felt like it had to become an ugly situation," Martin said. "This was not a hard decision because of the belief I have in the leadership of this team and my teammates, and that I have in myself. I have already begun to prepare for the 2006 season and am anxious to get the bad taste that the season left me with."

I hope Chad Pennington can now realize what he MUST do!

Who Do We Draft?


I've heard we want Jay Cutler. Now I hear he could be going at #3 and there are rumors we trade ahead of them to pick Cutler. But, if we traded up to #3, is Leinart a better pick? Or if Cutler goes at #3, do we just draft Vince Young at #4? Bush is definitely #1 and the next three teams want a QB so don't trade up and lose draft picks. You need draft picks to build this team. See who lands in your lap at #4 and it will no doubt be one of the 3 QBs who are all supossed to be pretty good.

Another Jets Song


“Sympathy for the NYJ Devil”
Tune: "Sympathy For the Devil by The Rolling Stones
Written by: Death By Jets

Please allow me to introduce myself
I’m a fan of stealth and waste
I’ve been around for a long, long career
Stole many a Jet fan’s soul and faith

And I was ’round when Richard Todd
Had his moment of mud and rain
Made damn sure that Duhe
Picked his pass and sealed his fate

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what’s puzzling you
Is the nature of our shame

I stuck around the Meadowlands
When I saw it was a time for a change
Hired Rich Kotite and his ministers
And Jet Nation screamed in vain

I made Chad kneel
Ruptured Vinny’s heel
When you think there’s hope
I always say “nope”

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh no
Ah, what’s puzzling you
Is the nature of our shame, oh no

I watched with glee
While busts sign and studs flee
Wasting three decades
For the GMs that paid

I shouted out,
“Who chilled the Belichicks?”
When after all
It was Tuna and me

Let me please introduce myself
I’m a fan of stealth and waste
And laid plans for coordinators
Who get killed because they ran draw plays

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh no
But what’s puzzling you
Is the nature of our shame, oh no, get down, Curtis

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh no
But what’s confusing you
Is just the nature of our shame

Just as every stop is a penalty
And all the winners Pats
As spike is fake
Just call me Same-Old-Jets
Cause the season’s over and that-is-that

So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned Hermisms
Or I’ll lay your green soul to waste, um no

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, um no
But what’s puzzling you
Is the nature of our shame, um mean it, get down

Boo, hoo
Oh no, we’re goin’ down
Oh no
Oh no!

Tell me Woody, what’s my name
Tell me Hermy, can ya guess my name
Tell me Terry, what’s my name
I tell you one time, your to blame

Boo, hoo
Boo, hoo
Boo, hoo
Boo, hoo, hoo
Boo, hoo, hoo
Boo, hoo, hoo
Boo, hoo, hoo
Oh, no

What’s my name
Tell me, BP, what’s my name
Tell me, Chadwick, what’s my name

Boo, hoo, hoo
Boo, hoo, hoo
Boo, hoo, hoo
Boo, hoo, hoo
Boo, hoo, hoo
Boo, hoo, hoo
Boo, hoo, hooOh, no

A Good Jets Song


“My Jet Fan High”
Set to the tune of "American Pie" by Don McLean
Written by Death By Jets Fan

A long, long time ago...
I can still remember
How that ballclub used to make me smile.
And I knew if Herm took a chance
That we could make it to the Big Dance
And, maybe, we’d be happy for a while.

But January made me shiver
With every kick Doug Brien didn’t deliver.
Bad news on the big screen;
I didn’t even give a scream.

I can’t remember if I cried
When I watch that last kick sail too wide,
But something crushed me deep inside
The day the season died.

So bye-bye, to my Jet fan high.
Smashed my remote as I emote,
And let the swears fly.
I feel like I could drink some arsenic and lye
Singin’, "this’ll be the Sunday I die.
"this’ll be the Sunday I die."

Did you have a team you love,
And do you have faith in Weeb above,
If the old-timers tell you so?
Do you believe we won it all,
And that this franchise once stood tall,
And can you tell me all you know?

Well, I know that we’re in love with them
`cause we watch despite all the mayhem.
We all kicked down some brews.
Cause it’s the only way to kill the blues.

I am a miserable middle-aged dumb-ass schmuck
Whose heart is always run-over by a big green truck,
And I have never even heard of luck
The day the season died.

I started singin’,
“bye-bye, to my Jet fan high.”
Smashed my remote as I emote,
And let the swears fly.
I feel like I could drink some arsenic and lye
Singin’, "this’ll be the Sunday I die.
"this’ll be the Sunday I die."

Now for thirty-six years we could only dream
And Moss grows phat on another team,
But that’s not how it used to be.
When Broadway threw to win the game,
In pantyhose, we loved him just the same
And an arm that earned him a Super Bowl trophy,

Oh, and while the king was looking down,
Two bad knees stole his chance at a second crown.
His legend is truly earned;
But the magic never returned.
And while the Sack Exchange led the attack,
Richard Todd almost got us back,
But AJ and mud gave a fade-to-black
The day the season died.

We were singing,
“bye-bye, to my Jet fan high.”
Smashed my remote as I emote,
And let the swears fly.
I feel like I could drink some arsenic and lye
Singin’, "this’ll be the Sunday I die.
"this’ll be the Sunday I die."

Kotite, what a fright, but the Tuna came to set it right.
The turnaround was an amazing sight,
Winning games and rising fast
At the Meadowlands they added grass.
Leon Johnson tried for a forward pass,
And same-old-Jets came back from the past.

Now the ninety-eight team brought a collective roar
As we finished the season twelve and four.
We all got up for the dance,
Oh, but we never got the chance!
As Curtis and KJ tried to take the field;
The Broncos D refused to yield.
Do you recall how Vinny was revealed
The day the season died?

We started singing,
“bye-bye, to my Jet fan high.”
Smashed my remote as I emote,
And let the swears fly.
I feel like I could drink some arsenic and lye
Singin’, "this’ll be the Sunday I die.
"this’ll be the Sunday I die."

Oh, here we all are in a strange new place
With a head coach who is lost in space
With no time left on the clock again.
So come on: Herm be nimble, Herm be quick!
Herm probably has a story about a candlestick
Cause BS is the Hermster’s only friend.

Oh, and as I watched him on the screen
My hands were clenched and I gave a scream.
No coordinator who gives ‘em hell
Could break old Herman’s spell.
And as the scores climbed high into the night
I knew that something wasn’t right,
I heard Herman saying “we’ll be alright”
The day the season died

He was singing,
“bye-bye, to my Jet fan high.”
Smashed my remote as I emote,
And let the swears fly.
I feel like I could drink some arsenic and lye
Singin’, "this’ll be the Sunday I die.
"this’ll be the Sunday I die."

We started a QB who gave us hope
Was he the savior….sorry….again nope,
He tore his shoulder and then turned away.
I went down to theganggreen.com board
I searched for answers, but my faith wasn’t restored,
And the men there said it was tough to watch them play.

And in the threads: the darksiders screamed,
The faithful cried, and the sunshiners dreamed.
A million words were spoken;
All of our hearts were broken.
And the three things I abhor the most:
The Fake Spike, the shovel pass and the SOJ ghost,
They all have made our beloved team toast
The day the season died.

And they were singing,
“bye-bye, to my Jet fan high.”
Smashed my remote as I emote,
And let the swears fly.
I feel like I could drink some arsenic and lye
Singin’, "this’ll be the Sunday I die.
"this’ll be the Sunday I die."

They were singing,
“bye-bye, to my Jet fan high.”
Smashed my remote as I emote,
And let the swears fly.
I feel like I could drink some arsenic and lye
Singin’, "this’ll be the Sunday I die."this’ll be the Sunday I die."

Clock Management 101



I found an old picture. I guess where Herm studied "Clock Management."

Jets Ask Chad To Restructure


The NY Jets have asked Chad Pennington to take a pay cut to a $1M base salary (plus incentives for playing time) this year. Wonder what will happen if he doesn't agree to the pay cut?

Jets Sign Cox To Staff


The Jets have signed Bryan Cox to be a defensive assistant. Can you imagine our sidline if Dick Curl was still here. Picture Dick Curl, Cox, Woody Johnson, and B.J. all standing next to eachother.
