Another Word on the Gholston Signing
So a word about the Gholston signing/not signing/signing.
For context, it’s worth noting that I had press access today (whoo hoo! I got to stand 3 feet closer to the team!) thanks to the good folks of SNY and the Jets. Although I spent much of the day high in the stands bad-dancing like a white boy to the music blaring from the speakers, I did sneak on the field for short periods of time and to listen to players give non-answers (Mangini’s influence is impressive to say the least) in-between practices .
While the practice was winding up tonight, the PR folks from the Jets were making it clear that Gholston signing wasn’t official, and that the press was being told as such at that time, but that there would be a formal conference call sometime tonight. Actually it might even be happening as I write this. The problem today was that the league office was going to have to take time to review the contracts, so even though Gholston might have been nearby (R in CT highly suggests Chrebet’s and the cute blonde bartendress with the tattoos around her midsection) he wasn’t allowed to practice.
That being said, there’s no reason to believe that everything isn’t going to be worked out shortly, so don’t worry that this will turn into a protracted issue like Darrelle’s situation did last year.
