*****The New Official New York Jets Thread*****

Joe Namath offered scathing criticism of the New York Jets' decision to go after quarterback Tim Tebow as a backup for recently extended starter Mark Sanchez.

"I do not agree with this situation," Namath said. "I can't agree with it. I just think it's a publicity stunt. I really think it's wrong. I can't go for it."


Namath spoke to Michael Kay and Don La Greca on ESPN New York 1050 on Wednesday while the Jets and Broncos were trying to work through a snag in the proposed trade. Kay asked Namath if he hoped the deal would ultimately fall through.

"Absolutely!" the Hall of Fame quarterback said. "And I'm a Tim Tebow fan! But I'm a bigger Jet fan than I am a Tim Tebow fan."

Namath said he thought bringing Tebow in wasn't best for the franchise, in particular Sanchez. Clearly, Tebow's popularity would rival the current starter's, and add pressure that Sanchez wasn't expecting.

"I don't think they know what they're doing over there right now," Namath said. "They give Sanchez a new contract, they pat him on the back and then they bring in two more quarterbacks."

The Jets' attempt to acquire Tebow came less than week after they signed Drew Stanton to be Sanchez's backup.

"I think Sanchez should be angry about what's taken place," Namath said.


Namath noted that there had already been plenty of discord in the Jets' locker room, something that rookie backup quarterback Greg McElroy spelled out in a radio interview after the season was over. McElroy took a lot of heat for pulling back the curtain on the inner workings of the Jets.

"Is this the Jets' way of shoving McElroy out of the way?" Namath said, "I'm baffled. I just think they're kind of mixed up over there, and I'm talking about the folks that are making the decisions. The owner of the team says they're not interested in Peyton Manning, and that's good, but meantime they end up being interested in Tebow? Come on, this is crazy."

La Greca pointed out that Namath was no stranger to attention-getting moves when he was a player, but that his Jets also won a Super Bowl -- the only one in the history of the franchise.

"It certainly seems like they're trying to make noise, get recognition," Namath said. "Well, win some games, win a championship [and] you get recognition."

The Jets are a joke, but at least their teams are competitive the last few years. The Jets don't lose one of the most exciting players in the league to their divisional rivals. The Jets fans actually show up to the games. The Mets fans do not.

As much as the Jets are a joke they get results.

Thank God the Mets are in NY; they can show how much more pathetic they are to the Jets!

Only the Jets give their QB a huge extension mostly just not to hurt his feelings then bring in Tebow when by the end of the first quarter fans will be calling for him to come in.

When did this "oh noes our qb's feeling are going to get hurt" nonsense come into play?!? Sanchez needs to man the fuck up and if he is going to get butt hurt over this than he isnt the qb who is going to get the job done to begin with.

Wow, you really are stupid. Every team is competitive in football. Jets have lost plenty of players to division rivals, how about when Chad Pennington beat the Jets to win the division, remember that? Jets can not even sell out all their games, and they only play 8 of them at home!

If you consider 8-8 and choking down the stretch getting results, then I agree. I hope to see the Jets get more results this year.

For once take off your glasses and see the real world.

Jets=Mets. Any unbiased person will tell you that.

Your welcome for the education. Come back again tomorrow to learn why you dont give a overrated QB with 2 years left on his contract an extension!

Oh yeah, only the Jets also announce a trade for a QB without reading his contract. What a joke!

You really take the cake as one of the biggest idiots on this board.

So you are comparing the Jets 500 season to the Mets from last year who were under 500. The previous seasons the Jets made it to the AFC Championship game. What did the Mets do in those years? Under 500!!!!!!

So you are comparing Chad Pennington to Jose Reyes. Reyes is considered one of the best in his positions. Pennington was a good quarterback, but far from being the best in his position.

Jets vs the Mets in the last 3 seasons is not even close. The Mets can't even go out and trade most of their players. If they do they are getting very little or nothing. The Jets how unconventional they do things make an effort.

Jets draw fine and none of their games are blacked out, so I would think they sell out. You really know nothing.

To come here and bash the Jets, you root for the Mets, and compare the Jets to the Mets, Jesus Christ!!!!!

Since you mentioned Chad Pennington he is the only qb in the last 10 years that guided the Dolphins to a playoff spot. Yes, they lost that too.

The Jets have won 6 playoff games since 2002. How many have the Dolphins won since 2001?

Your answer!!!!!



You are a complete idiot.


You are welcome for my response now keep rooting for shit teams!!!!

You know you are a true moron when you compare on the field performance of a baseball and football team. You have to be an idiot to do that.

Every person in the media and every true Jets fan is admitting what a joke the Jets are and how they are making fools of themself, hence the comparison to the Mets. You are the only person who does not get it. But why would that surprise me, you do not get anything about sports or life in general.

It is a typical Mets move...It makes no sense. Thats why Mets=Jets.

Get it? If not, read it again slowly. We can all tell you are not very bright.

All the smartest teams do this. I guess whatrusaying ignored this comment. Now I get what his username means. Guy is so fucking slow, he can not comprehend what people are saying.

In trading for a QB who can't pass, Jets cement status as high-profile sideshow

FWIW it was written by Stephan A Smith who sits on top of the Tebow hating mountain.

Can you blame him? Tebow is an awful quarterback. Nobody can argue that except the idiot jets "fan" in this thread.

Do you actually pay attention to what you write and read? I know you are a shit stirring punk, but get a fucking brain!!!

You are the jackass that was comparing the Mets to the Jets!!!!! That is why I debated you on it. So we can only compare off the field moves from a baseball team and a football team? Please, idiot you brought it up!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In addition, I was comparing the Dolphins to the Jets!!!!! Guess what they play in the same sport!!!! You failed to debate me on that. How many playoff wins do the Dolphins have since 2001?

Did I say the Jets do strange things? Of course I did. I am not sure you are able to scroll up, but it is post# 3824. I know you can find it!!! I did not say this Tebow thing was a good move.

You really need help KOAW. Get the fuck out of this thread and care more about your shit teams in the other thread!!!!

Go little boy!!!! Get a life!!!

I was here before you kid, and I will be here after you kid. I did not compare the on the field moves of the Mets and Jets, I compared them that they are both dysfunctional and a mess in the front office. The only person who disagrees with that is the Jets thread moron, oh hi What! You are the idiot who decided to compare the on the field performance of a baseball and football team.

Ok so the Dolphins have 0 wins since 2001 in the playoffs. Should I become a Jets fan since they have more, or a 49ers fan or a Packers fan or a Patriots fan? We know that you pick your teams based on playoff wins (see Penguins, Jets, Yankees, etc) but a majority of real sports fans dont pick a team based on how many playoff wins they have. So to even bring that up just proves that a) you are a idiot b) you are a front runner c) you are a idiot and d) all of the above.

Where did you say that Tebow was a bad move? What post # was that? As usual, you will never call anything bad if your on that teams bandwagon.

What else can you prove me right on idiot. Now sit down and shut up, and stick to the hockey thread.

Now to respond to the village idiot again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When did you say you were just comparing the Mets and Jets off the field acts? You never said that you BULLSHIT ARTIST!!!! Now you are changing the story.

You just don't want to compare the on the field activities because then you can admit that you are WRONG. No KOAW's can't do that. You were right about the Nets not getting an arena in Brooklyn and The Phillies not winning a world series because of their homerun park. When you admit you are wrong I might show some respect for you known as the jackass!!!!

The point is you don't need to talk shit about a team when you have your own shit teams to be concerned about. You are a typical fan that cares more about teams you don't like than your own team. Keep posting here and let's see more idiotic BULLSHIT from you.

I explained my teams in the past, but you are kind of slow, so I need to do this again. I was a Yankee fan starting in 1976 and did see them lose in the Series. The games were on WPIX. WWOR did not come in well where I lived and did not have cable.

The Jets sucked in the 70's and 80's so not sure what bandwagon I jumped on.

As for the Penguins I rooted for them in 1984 because I was a Lemieux fan I could have easily been an Islander fan as they were in the hayday of building a dynasty. Yeah I am
a bandwagon fan.

Talk about a bandwagon fan. You come to the NHL Thread when the Isles are on a winning streak or playing well. I know you posted earlier in the year there and not seen you back. I wonder why? Then you will make the claim that you are not a big hockey fan, but if the Isles win then you are!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Talk about BANDWAGON!!!

I can't believe I have to post how stupid you are. This is my daily lecture of a young immature, bandwagon, shit stirring piece of shit!!!!!

You are welcome!!!!

You were a Jets fan in the 70s and 80's like I was an Isles fan in the late 70's and early 80's. Oh yeah, I was not even born yet.

What does it feel like to be owned on a internet message board by somebody young enough to be your son? It must really suck.

Have an excellent Sunday grandpa. Adios, until your next sports lesson

dosn't he have to share this title with mike milbury , now theres an idiot .

Notice you could not rebut anything I said. Looks like you are truly the joke on this messageboard.

I was born in the 70's and was a Jets fan back then, but then again you are too stupid to realize that!!!!

I understand how you feel because since you have been living none of your teams have won anything, so you are so bitter at the world.

I have came at you with all of your bullshit and you can't even defend it. Look who the punk is with the losing teams that has nothing going on with his life.

So, please tell me again that the Nets won't get an arena in Brooklyn.
So, please tell me again how the Phillies will never win a World Series in their newer home field.
So, please post in the NHL Thread when the Isles start off well.


I actually feel a little bad that I have to pick on the little retard known as KingOfAllWhites: AKA: Queenie!!!!!

KingOfAllWhites and Mike Milbury are like peas in a pod my friend. Both jackasses in more ways than one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

None of your accusations deserve a response. When a moron makes an accusation, people dont respond. Look in the mirror.

Obviously if you are calling me an isles fan and a front runner, you are a moron/retard. Like I said, the fact that you are old enough to be my father/grandfather says it all.

Funny how in one sentence you say I am bitter since none of my teams won, then can call me a front runner in another sentence. Thats says it all about you. You make Stumpy and wild look like rocket scientists.

I actually make predictions and have an opinion on things, even though I will admit, I am not right 100% of the time. You never give an opinion, so you cant be wrong, just like you are never right. You just take up space with your meaningless typing since you give no opinion or any insight. That defines a moron...look in the mirror paps!

Dude you really are stupid. I found a bunch of things that you posted that were not true, which you can not deny that you were wrong, but here is your latest quote

You never admit that you are wrong. You told me the Nets moving to Brooklyn is not a done deal. You mentioned the Phillies would never win a World Series in their newer park Admit you were wrong. Come on little boy!!!!!!!

You said none of my accusations deserve a response because you are full of shit and a BS liar. You can't even debate me on why I root for certain teams, but of course you call me a front runner!! PUUUUUUULLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEE


You jump on the Islanders bandwagon when they started the season well. You made your post in the NHL Thread. Hmm wonder why you have not been back. Queenie jumped off the bandwagon. What a great fan you are!!!!!

I give plenty of opinions, but your reading comprehension is far below level if you never saw my opinions.


Now my little shit stirring, young piece of shit punk go get your milk and cookies from Mommy. You can't handle this thread and life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why would I debate a front runner? There is nothing to debate. Your actions speak for themself.

Also Mr NHL, tell me how well the Islanders started. Tell me what their record was that I jumped on the bandwagon. I have admitted that I like hockey the least out of the 4 major sports. So when I was posting and "on " the bandwagon, what was the Isles record? Saying bandwagon and Isles fan in the same sentence just shows what a complete moron you are.

Anybody who calls a Mets, Dolphins, Knicks and WVU fan a frontrunner, is missing a screw.

Now go beat up the kids on the playground paps.

At 50 years old and a knicks yanks rangers and steelers fan , Dam KOAW i feel for you . Frontrunner you are knot. I was young but remember both of the knick championship years ,it was huge for us back then

I can only imagine. Worst part is..none of my teams are even close.

You can't debate me being a frontrunner because that would actually require a thought and a brain, which you do not have!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I called you a bandwagon fan, DOUCHEBAG!!!! So, you will only post in the NHL Thread when the Isles start off well and have a winning streak, and that is it??? That is not a bandwagon fan?? You are a disgrace to mankind!!!!

So, once again you said you are always right and then you say that you can be wrong. Can't have it both ways, fruitcake!!!

I am not going to waste my time looking in The NHL Thread for your one post of being happy that the Isles were on a winning streak and in first place in October!!! I know you have time to waste as you seem to respond to my posts within 30 minutes.

Get a life and get a hobby. I can only devote one post to you here because I am not a loser like yourself!!!

Exactly and that is why you are an insecure person. You feel so good to bash other teams when you know your teams suck ass!!!!!!

Oh Queenie needs a life!!!!
