I appreciate that Coles plays hard in spite of his self-centered, whiny disposition but Curtis was the epitome of class, character and professionalism on and off the field and hopefully some day in a front office. Curtis gave back money so that the team could sign additional quality players. Coles took salary from a teammate as a prerequisite for coming back to a team he once fled for bigger dollars. That doesn't necessarily make Coles much different than the average person, most people follow the money. But Curtis is different.

Like I said before I like the passion you show towards LC and CP. Even though Farve is a better QB and Clowney is faster than LC. I don’t know about Nick but I don’t have a problem with that.

It causes fans like us a great deal of pain to have other alleged fans demean the complex and unique character attributes of exemplary players like Chad, and LC. Few players other then those two, and of course Wayne and Curtis better define the unique spirit and vision of our team over the past decade. Few players have made the sacrifices for the team and to one another that they have. Nick: ''We were all with you jetchick…,then you had to go and act like a girl. Please lecture elsewhere''. So in turn you decided to lecture me. Nick, let me assure you I am no girl.....another sexist gate 6 comment. You see Nick I am a woman....all 5'10'' 135 very fit pounds of woman.....got a problem with that Nick? Finn

Swizzle81 said it is good that LC doesn't talk to the media until he cools off. This is true. Paul was just saying that LC needs to be thankful. Just because he said s***pile does not equate to the behavior at gate D. I have said things about LC before and your reation seems to be a little over the top at times. Thats ok though. I like the passion you have towards LC and CP. jetchick

They can not understand or appreciate that the Chad/Laveranues story of deep friendship and mutual loyalty is indeed a rare and beautiful thing. As true Jets fans, it should touch us, and move us, and make us proud to have had on our team two such fine human beings. This no doubt flies over the heads of some of our bloggers. So be it. But keep up the good work, Jetchick. JETCHICK – Bravo to you for calling out the “Gate D” mindsets, whose meanspirited comments are suggestive of why they probably have few close friends.
