Hold Your Happiness: Wins Over The Scrubs, Losses To The Elites, Nothing New Here

I’m just as happy as anyone else that we had a dominating win with an in-sync offense yesterday, but let’s look in the mirror and be real folks: 2-2 is exactly where we had this team pegged with Chad Pennington’s balloons, and 3-1 is what we wished for with Brett Favre’s darts.

When Jets Head Coach Eric Mangini was asked about possibly receiving Brett Favre in a trade, his eyes lit up. But minutes later the Jets third year head coach did his normal dance around the question, saying that all talks about player personnel are internal.

And They’re Off! First practice impressions

The Jets kicked the 2008 season with their first training camp practice this morning. A early shower turned into a breezy cool session which was refreshing, considering the stifling heat lately. I won’t go into specific practice reports (I’ll leave that up to the writers…..full AM report coming) but here’s a few observations. First off,…
