I have nothing against the Jets. But if the Giants can catch a break from injuries the Jets won't even be the best team in their own city. August 16 pre season game should be fun even though it won't tell us much about which team will have the better season.

Haha spoken like a true Giants fan. I respect the Giants org. and I like Eli, but aside from qb and defensive end the Jets a better in every position. speaking of injury, last year the Jets did what they did after losing Jenkins on D and Washington on O. The hate for the Jets is strong here, we'll see how the season shakes out. I just didn't see a thread on here to talk about the green and white so I thought I would start one. I should have expected the hate, I've been hearing it my whole life (especially from Giants fans). . .We'll see

It could be worse - this could be a yankees/mets thing. Now that can get ugly real fast. I live upstate so I have to deal with Bills fans too.

Ah, a team we can both agree sucks!

The three years remaining on his contract.

And that should have stopped him how?

Mangold is definitely paying attention and at this point and if Jets do not make good, and quickly, I can't see any high profile player ever wanting to play/sign for them in the future. If unproven rookie can get $50M deal, then what about proven players? Not that I agree with the crazy money deals we're seeing lately be it NFL, NBA or EPL, for that matter. Plus, if they want locker room stability they need to show they take care of their players.

Something has to give...

I think that might be a little over the top.

It is a bad situation because of namdi's ridiculous deal from Oakland and the uncertain future of the CBA. Hopefully they will find middle ground involving a 1 year bandaid kind of deal. He is quickly losing fan support in NY.

Mangold and Harris I'm sure are paying attention, but have shown up to camp like a team leader should. You are putting it all on the Jets, how about the player? I know he needs to get paid and I'm sure he will, but due to the current situation there has to be comprimise on both sides.

I don't think this will effect whether or not a big name free agent ever signs with the Jets again.
