Buzz: Is Favre Close to Becoming a Jet?

EEEE HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!

Soundbites: Jerricho Cotchery 7/31/2008

Here’s some quotes from Jerricho Cotchery today at practice …
On his progress leading up to his big year last season…

It was good to see the progression. Every year I try to get better and better and try to put in the work that I need to put in just to continue to get better [...]

No More Mr. Nice Guy

After today’s practice, it might seem that Mangini has had enough nonsense from those darn Tour de Frenchies he’s been gushing about so much recently.  This morning’s practice was “not acceptable,” and he’s looking for accountability.
“Look, these (practices) aren’t long comparatively, but come on, it’s a joke compared to what we [did in 2006]. Everybody [...]

Another Sort of Tape from Belichick?

Um … so … yeah … we’re just going to link you to Deadspin for all the juicy details.
From hearing him on the radio, I will note that Tom Casale is a bit of an odd bird, but he worked for the Patriots (via their PFW media wing) for more than two years, and would [...]

D. Rose is Rambling: Traaaaaaaaaining Camp

If there’s one thing we know about our very own D.Rose, it’s that he’ll tell you what he thinks. We can vouch for that when last summer we saw him tell Eric Barton “I’m your only fan!!” In this column, D uses the space as an opportunity speak his mind, from the perspective of a [...]

Camp Files: Andrew Weiss Reports In …

Film Room: Craig Leads the Chant

Here’s video of Craig Carton, addressing the fans yesterday.  Also you can see some player interviews here.
Since we saw the back of it for four minutes, it’s also worth noting, that maybe it’s time for Craig to mix in a new jersey … vote on who you think he should upgrade to in the comments.

Yay! We’re Running Again!

Thank you for your patience to the many of you who tried to visit the site last night and this morning and found that your hrowser wanted you to download some weird file.  What that was all about was that the site was getting transferred to a high availability server, so now (fingers crossed!!) the [...]

Craig Carton Leads “Get Brett Rally” at Hofstra

We realize this is has become somewhat … divisive, but it’s about the Jets, so there you have it.
WFAN morning radio host Craig Carton led a rally to “Let’s get Brett.” Carton’s point is that his rally could have been avoided had the Jets endorsed the QBs on their roster, but they didn’t so he [...]
