This is the Time When Kings Go to War …

by Bassett on July 15th, 2010 at 10:17 am

One of my favorite books as a kid was Tom Clancey’s Red Storm Rising.  One of the key components of the plot was that the Soviets have to figure out a way to incite war with the West, and so they stage a very elaborate ruse to fake their way into a war with NATO. 

This reminds me of that … or it’s just a very self-stroking way for Patriots.com to get in on the FourSquare craze.

While watching this video, I actually considered trying to side with “The Jets Helmet Guy” and find ways to throw Patriots fans off the scent of the ring … I still am … the only problem is that this is a media campaign by the Patriots … so there’s really no way to foil it, as far as I can see.  I’d love to see that sucker hit eBay before Tommy from Quincy figyahs out this wikkid noodlah!!!

Commentary after the jump …

0:02 – Dramatic music … are those Peter Bretter’s dark ominous tones

0:18 – This guys eyes are creeping me out.  Is he going to pull out a knife and start stabbing people?

0:24 – Two hotties in reaction shot … UTTERLY SHOCKED!

0:26 – Three dudes who are taking a break from icing each other, what with the recent shutdown of the site .. “THIS IS TOTALLY NOT BRAH, BRAH!!!”

0:36 – OhVince is wearing his George Bluth Sr. prison casual wear today …

0:56 – Handin’ it to THE LAY-DA!!!!

1:00 – A GUY IN A JETS HELMET! !!! OMIGOD!  CALL IN THE NATIONAL GUARD!! NO ONE PANIC!!! AM I YELLING? WHY AM I YELLING?!?!?!

1:07 – ‘76 Pinto? I get it!  It’s a subtle jab at the socio-economic status of Jets fans!

1:22 – Some days, I really hate social media. 

1:40 – Why would a Jets fan want a ring of a Patriot?  Are we that craven?  Those totalitarian Kraft bastards would have you think that we Jets fans are freaking Gollum.

1:41 – Shh!! They’re dimming the lights!!

1:55 – Well at least they didn’t go stereotypical accent on us … I mean who are people from Massachusetts to throw the first stone, right?

1:59 – Did I just watch a splice -cut of some dude’s ass?

2:19 – OK, so this guy just wants to prove Jets fans are smarter?  OK how can I help to foil Patriots fans?

2:26 – He lives with his mom, how droll!

2:58 – Losing … the will … to keep up … this commentary …

3:01 – How is Crazy Eyes McGee going to call out anyone else for being deranged?  Your eyes are FREAKING HYPNOTIC!!!

3:14 – Points and prizes?  Its like I’m in the WPIX Two-Way TV Club all over again – that or just got a Capital One Credit Card … NO BLACKOUT DATES!!!

3:15 – I feel like he’s looking through my SOUL!!!

3:34 – That dude’s name is Stacy?  It’s all coming together now.

Our thanks to DKNYJ who sent this onto us …

    DO THESE GUYS KNOW HOW TO PARTY OR WHAT?

    Seriously, there’s four minutes of my life I’ll never get back. If that’s the Patriots attempt at humor I’m sure as sh** glad I’m a Jets fan.

    was that a joke? It cannot be serious?

    Why is it that Jets fans are perceived as idiots? Where did this notion came from?

    Dolphins fans are way worse, those delusional Bengay infested iidiots!! They can berely fill their home stadium with fans. Yet Glauber considers them a top-3 team in the AFC with their mildcat offense.

    Do Patriots fans even find that video funny? Easily the worst attempt at humor/Jet-bashing I have seen in awhile.

  9. avatar SackDance99 says:

    Jets fans should inundate the Pats website and figure out the lame clues. It would be great if the winner turns out to be a Jets mole. Was Anna Chapman a Jets fan? She has some free time now.

    Ahh, it wasn’t so bad. I think it’s kinda nice that we’re important enough to lampoon. Also, since the team has really led the league in reaching out to us fans the past few years, it’s kinda cool that the Patsies try to emulate us for a change.

    IMHO

    This video was worse than Queen Shames’ one hour special.

    Wess….Wess…Wess Welker come on do you really think it’s wise to be trying to instigate any kind of ill will to the jets. Get back to rehabbing that knee so we can break the other one and stop with the jets fan imitations, a very lame attempt at humor.
