    What’s with the 2 parts Hornitos Plata Tequila?

    Not that it’s a big deal, but is there some product placement going on here?

      Seriously, that’s fairly specific and coincidental for three separate places to just so happen use the same tequila brand, no?

        Bassett—

        I smell a Hornitos press release—is that what prompted this particular blog post of yours?

        As for me, I drink an assortment of different kinds of whskey (but no tequilla), week by week, when I watch the Jets.

        Here are a few of my favorites:

        1. Talisker 18 year old single malt. Best for a night game after a nice steak.

        2. Highland Park 12 year old single malt. Often have this after a couple of glasses of the Talisker.

        3. Crown Royal Cask No16. Nice and light—lighter than thee Talisker—but serious stuff. Very good for an early game.

        4. Chivas 18 year old. Often switch to this after a few glasses of Cask No.16.

        Let’s go Jets!

    Anyone going to the rally today?

  3. how could there not be a nick mangold drink?

    The ingredients in Revis Island make it sound like a girl drink. I don’t know if Darrelle would appreciate that.

    Pretty sure a ‘ Nick Mangold’ would put you on your ass, that is if you’re not much of a drinker. Not for lightweights, that’s for sure.

    I’m sure all of these taste much better than the Jets’ wine. I mean really, WINE? For a football team? I’ll go out on a limb and say that Woody wouldn’t be rich if it weren’t for his grandfather’s business. At least he’s gotten the team into shape now… took him long enough.

  7. avatar Pete57 says:

    The Nick Mangold would be 3 fingers Bacardi 151, garnished with a Boar hunting knife.

    The Sanchez would have tequila for obvious reasons, but he comes from a blue collar family, so have to go with Cuervo. I would go with the Sanchez Sunrise- Cuervo and OJ, with a Dos Equis chaser.

    The Rex would be a keg of Bud, and 50 hot wings on the side.

    Revis Island would have to have coconut rum in it. I’d go with the Revis Island Punch- Coconut rum, Meyers dark rum, 7-UP, and splash of pomegranet.

    They need these drinks:

    Flight Boys
    Bart Scott
    Brad Smith

    ..i have been superstitiously forced to drink the 9 pack of miller lite pints in the aluminum bottles… and when they are done….there better be reserves in the fridge!

  10. Revis island Drink is served in a pineapple with a little umbrella , receiver is the pineapple darrelle covers like the umbrella.

    Whiskey Jets Drinking Game.

    Take a shot every time they score or cause a turnover.

    Needless to say, this past Sunday I was smashed.

    I drank Keystone Light at the bar last Sunday for the first time since I graduated from college a few years ago. It tastes like camel piss, but I gotta go with what works, I guess.

  14. Had five of these sanchez’s last night then played flag football.
