Our Song.. "sportsyenta + NewYorkJets"

SO the other day i was joking with some young guy that he should pick another team because he wouldnt support Kellen Clemens as our QB this week against Tampa Bay.

He told me to continue my "informational blog posting".. i think he was being facetious. lol

SO... i know this isn't information in the classic PFT / SI /ESPN sense... These are just my own quirky nonsensical thoughts... if you dont like it.. go read Peter King, and John Clayton.. they are much more in the "know" then i am ...

OY! ha!

but if you enjoy my ramblings, feel free to read at your leisure, and either way, i welcome comments.

Now back to your regularly scheduled program already in progress...

i was listening to the radio and they were having a 70's weekend ( yes, 1970's) and i heard a song and i felt as though a light bulb went off! It was my and the Jets song.. OUR love song.. TLA! (true love always.. for those of you not versed in 7th grade girl vernacular. )

how i never saw it before... i dont know... enjoy!!!!

i love you NEW YORK JETS!! SWAK!

*i have included the lyrics after the video




Don't give up on us, baby
Don't make the wrong seem right
The future isn't just one night
It's written in the moonlight
Painted on the stars
We can't change ours

Don't give up on us, baby
We're still worth one more try
I know we put a last one by
Just for a rainy evening
When maybe stars are few
Don't give up on us, I know
We can still come through

I really lost my head last night
You've got a right to start believin'
There's still a little love left, even so

Don't give up on us, baby
Lord knows we've come this far
Can't we stay the way we are?
The angel and the dreamer
Who sometimes plays a fool
Don't give up on us, I know
We can still come through



It's written in the moonlight
Painted on the stars
We can't change ours

Don't give up on us, baby
We're still worth one more try
I know we put a last one by
Just for a rainy evening
When maybe stars are few
Don't give up on us, I know
We can still come through

Don't give up on us, baby
Don't give up on us, baby

Jets - bills...

.... Yes we won! And it was nice to beat the Bills.. considering they stole one from us in October...

BUT

Mark Sanchez will have wear a brace on both knees a la Joe Namath...

or is it a la Herman Munster... ( didnt he walk as if he didnt have knee joints?)

OY!!

anyway.. lets hope that is sprained PCL is a mild one.. ( and dont ask Rex, he doesnt know. lol)

Ok.. the good news...

Darrelle Revis is superman. ....Faster than a speeding bullet.....More powerful than a locomotive.
Able to leap tall receivers in a single bound......

He has to be in the discussion for NFL DPOY.. really. he has SHUT down TO ( twice) Randy Moss (twice) Steve Smith, Andre Johnson.. (should i continue?)

Thomas Jones reached 1000 yds for the 5th consecutive year. He has quietly upped his game since his partner and my boy, LEON was sidelined by a devastating year ending injury.

Sean Ellis had a great game.. two important sacks yesterday.. he is an intimidating force.

also have to give props to Jay Feely ( though i HATE his politics. heh) He nailed every kick he needed to make...

SO yes .. revenge was had..

but at what cost..

we are at .500 with still a sliiiiiiiiiiiiiiim chance ... to (dare i say it...) make the playoffs....

and we have a hobbled QB..

ok we have a back up... sigh.. and although i am sure that Kellen Clemens is a very nice young man.. but he is not a great QB...he has as much pocket presence as a 4 year old boy on a sugar binge trying to catch fireflies.

Alright .. 10 days to heal.. and get ready to slay those florida pirates .....

ARG-OY!

enough of my rambling .. for today that is. lol :)

Oh Canada!! Football, Jets, and heartache...

So we are again.. my heart is thumping..i anticipate our next meeting … know this time you are serious.. this time will be different, you wont disappoint. You know I have been dreaming about this since I was a little girl! I thought it might happen last year. It was right around this time, I saw the glimmer in your eye, I felt like this was the closest we have been in years to reaching what I had hoped for so long…And alas you let me down.

Will it happen again this year?

You might be thinking I am talking about a relationship.. well I am, but not with the man of my dreams.. but the team of my dreams, The New York Jets.

OY!

It has been this way since I was 6 years old. My dad was watching this game and so excited about this team and a guy they called broadway joe. Initially I wanted to root for the purple team since purple was my favorite color, but my dad would have none of that, so I was forced to watch the green team.. But boy were they exciting.. and it was funny that this broadway joe wore furs and panty hose, but everyone liked him and he had a nice smile.

How the HECK was I suppose to know that his would be the beginning of 40 years of agony and heartache???

I wont lump all the disappointment into one rant because that would be consider cruel and unusual punishment ,and it might give me a heart attack to revisit it all at one time..

Anyway as for this year.. the team has landed to Toronto to meet the Bills tomorrow night, and since we are not mathematically eliminated, and although a win would only get us to .500, hope springs eternal.. that we could STILL make the playoffs.

Sigh…

I am sure by Friday, I will be curled up in a ball in a corner eating chocolate and Wise cheez doodles ( the official cheez doodle of the New York Jets! ha!)

But for today and tomorrow, I will be dressed in my finest green..

And..

I am confident that Sanchez will not throw an interception, but some beautiful balls Jericho, Dustin and Braylon.

Darrelle Revis will make TO wish he was back in his driveway doing push-ups

Kerry Rhodes will continue last week’s performance and show us what a dynamic player he is!

Ok can I get a chant?

J-E-T-S OY OY OY!!

Uhhh.. I mean JETS JETS JETS!!
