[Official Jets Club] Re: New Giants/Jets Stadium - Another Snow Job

It feels like a bad dream, doesn't it?
I don't think Woody is gonna get rid of the team any time soon.

They can't go after any high priceed free agents ( or high value) no
cap room.

fans, i fear we may be in for a bad stretch here, hopefully i am
wrong here, all i know is we went from one kick away from the afc
title game to 4-12, so there's something certainly amiss here.
