J-E-T-S...JETS! JETS! JETS!

I've been saying all week this game comes down to one thing, and one thing only really, because I believe the Jets and Steelers defenses and offenses basically wipe each other out. It's all about the goddamn kickers. And I'm telling you, I saw what this stadium did to Doug Brien 7 years ago (and what I almost did to Jerry's laptop on that final miss)...Nick Folk, this is our little corner of the internet putting you on blast. Please do not epically fuck this game up like I've told everyone you would do this week. Please man, make some kicks...


**Fun Update (unless you are Doug Brien):
That bastion of unchallenged internet truths, Wikipedia, informs us that Doug Brien is in fact "most well known" for missing the kicks I reference above. Well Doug, any press is good press, right? Right???

  2. Tom Jackson: "No one will affect the Jets' performance more than Dennis Byrd... other than the players on the field."

    I expect better out of you, [non-Gheorge] TJ.

  3. How are the Jets fans feeling about this game? Seems like a lot of people are picking them.

  4. rob - one of your nerves has possibly been "moved" or pinched, altering the ability of the brain to send the message to your finger that you actually have a finger.
    i have numbness in my right pinky. right now it's minor, but it gets worse as the year goes on (biking, on a tri-bike). by july - i won't be able to feel it at all. i went to the dr. last year where they identified the exact nerve thru a series of tests - i could have surgery to have it moved and most likely fixed permanently. it doesn't really bother me so i'm bypassing the knife.

  5. i'm not a doctor. but i play one at home.

  6. that was easier than a winchester girl

    ReplyDelete
  7. yeah. but not quite as easy as that first drive for g.b.

    ReplyDelete
  8. yes, danimal-san, that's what i meant

    ReplyDelete
  9. Great combo by the left guard there, shed onto the LB flawlessly.

    ReplyDelete
  10. where are our roving bloggers the teej and the tee-are?

    and speaking of missing bloggers -is igor still with us?

    ReplyDelete
  11. I haven't had feeling in the tip of my right index finger since May, due to the herniated disk in my neck and the nerve damage I suffered as a result. I'll probably never get it back. You get used to it.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Oh, and in case anybody was wondering, my ribs are really fucking sore today. Somebody hit me in the ribs during pickup ball this morning and I thought I was going to cry.

    ReplyDelete
  13. igor is either in or on his way home from the bahamas

    ReplyDelete
  14. I'm on the commode, the only place in my house where I get peace. Meant to do a preview, but had no time. I really like the Jets chances, although a bit less so with the extreme weather. The beaten down Pitt line may be the one big NYJ advantage.

    This is the fourth AFC championship game I've watched my team play, and the first one I thought they could legitimately win.

    I will go to radio silence at 6:09 for the game. Worked last week. Go Jets!

  15. drove home from princeton this morning, passed a surprising number of jets fans on the way to pittsburgh. make of that what you will.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Cutler's gotta put something together on this drive - decent field position - or this might get out of hand.

    ReplyDelete
  17. the packers are going to regret failing to take advantage of the great field position they've had most of the first half. unless cutler keeps making throws like that.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Feels like Rodgers can move the ball whenever he wants to, but yeah, I would have expected more points with the field position advantage.

    ReplyDelete
  19. And no one takes a shotgun snap as leisurely as Aaron Rodgers.

    ReplyDelete
  20. This is how GB started the game...

    ReplyDelete
  21. Bears can forget about it if Todd Collins comes in.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Todd Collins = 100% chance Bears lose.

    ReplyDelete
  23. what an unreal throw by rodgers

    ReplyDelete
  24. May seem like chippy pass interference call, but I'll agree with the call.

    ReplyDelete
  25. that's the only thing the pack absolutely couldn't do

    ReplyDelete
  26. calling bullshit on cutler's injury

    ReplyDelete
  27. Lovie Smith looks like he's ready to go back to fighting John McClaine on the wing of a 747.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Jennings is running the same route over and over and he's always open.

    ReplyDelete
  29. the packers are trying really hard to keep the bears in this game

    ReplyDelete
  30. collins, in his 16th season, is younger than me.

    ReplyDelete
  31. yeah, caleb hanie. or hannie. feeling real, real good about my bears bet, not that i was feeling much better earlier.

    ReplyDelete
  32. cutler's beaver must hurt pretty bad.

    ReplyDelete
  33. what???? someone explain to me the collins can't come back in rule b/c hanie came in w/a minute left in the 3rd?

    ReplyDelete
  34. if the 3rd qb enters the game before the 4th quarter, neither of the other two can reenter.

    and the pack windpipes just got a little narrower.

    ReplyDelete
  35. that's a gay rule.

    i need a gimp mask, modified. rather than a cue ball, i need a pacifier. so it will stop falling out. for my 2 month old.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Caleb hanie says suck a dick

    ReplyDelete
  37. If the Bears somehow pull this out, how fast do you think Cutler informs the team that his knee feels better? Does he wait until they get into the locker room or does he just quickly tell everyone on the field?

    ReplyDelete
  38. rob, to return feeling to your finger, stick in the warmest hole in your body.

    what happens to the jets game if this goes into OT?

    ReplyDelete
  39. This is a monstrously impressive drive.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Mark Sanchez just wiped a booger on Mark Brunell, captured on camera.

    ReplyDelete
  41. i'm several minutes behind and just saw the booger wipe. brunell was very content w/the fact, happy almost. good stuff.

    so no one made it to the game, as in the 2T's

    ReplyDelete
  42. this is an impressive asswhippery

    ReplyDelete
  43. So two of the last three NFL games of the year suck? Great. What a Sunday.

    ReplyDelete
  44. yeah - both pretty disappointing. the payoff tho is the super bowl where we could have a pick'em....aiming to find out of that has ever happened.

    ReplyDelete
  45. I'm content with Packers-Steelers, but I want to see what the Jets are made of here.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Nantz and Simms paid it plenty of lip service, but the fact Ben has stayed in and played pretty competently after that thigh ding shouldn't be undersold. Those things hurt like a bitch.

    ReplyDelete
  47. I know they need a field goal at some point (most likely), but a TD means a lot more mentally here than a figgie.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Jets have 5 rushes for 1 yard at half.

    ReplyDelete
  49. They should run that play more.

    ReplyDelete
  50. It's threatening to get interesting.

    ReplyDelete
  51. teej - keep this in your back pocket to view later.

    http://www.imdb.com/video/imdb/vi283417369/

    It looks dreadful, like a cheesier Kindergarten Cop.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Ben never mishandles a clit that way

    ReplyDelete
  53. this is a pretty impressive response to asswhippery

    ReplyDelete
  54. pour out a little creatine shake for jack lalanne

    ReplyDelete
  55. But is Elaine LaLane still available?

    ReplyDelete
  56. It's tough determining whom I'm going to root for. Wisconsin has cheese, football, and obesity. Pitssburgh has the steel industry, football, and obesity. Wisconsin was the fictional setting of That 70's Show. Pittsburgh was the fictional setting of Mr. Belvedere.

    I'll have to stew on this for a while.

  57. Sunday hangover? Where's my new reading material for Monday.

    ReplyDelete
  58. jets fans are really sad today (while bandwagon fans like myself are completely unaffected).

    ReplyDelete
  59. i think your haircut story is worth a cross-posting.
