Yesterday was a good day. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I found myself at the local Applebee’s watching the G-Men play the early game after being kicked out of my house due to the Cablevision and Fox-5 NY dispute. Don’t f$*k with NY Sports, how lame to punish all of the fans, but whatever.
Applebee’s was great, the beer was flowing as it should and we forced the manager to give us the Wing special because the bar was overflowing and we could not get a seat because everyone in my town went out yesterday. Cablevision strikes again…
While I don’t hate the Giants, I typically use their games to do laundry, play a round of Call of Duty, call a distant friend, pretty much anything to fill the gap between the Jets game. I have no G-Men on my fantasy teams so I was not really vested in the game.
However, I must admit it was good to see the Giants win yesterday, but it was hard to watch 3 of my fantasy players get concussed throughout the day including; DeShawn Jackson, Todd Heap and Chris Cooley which really hurting my team’s out put this week and it looks like next week is not looking to likely for these dudes. To the waiver wire!
Anyway, the best part of the day came when the beloved NY Jets pull a victory straight out of Denver’s ass. Seriously, when does anything ever go right for the Jets?
All day the refs were calling Offensive pass interference on the Jets which really killed the momentum on those drives. When we finally got a call on a 4th down prayer toss to Holmes, it felt HOLY. Like GOD said, here you go Jets, if you can hold on, you can have this game.
Hold on we did and the NY Jets are the Kings of NY in the early 2010 NFL Season. It feels nice right now but I know how fleeting this feeling can be. Cherish is, hold it, put it in a box and let’s pray for more.
The NY Jets are a force to be reckoned with and now that God is on our side it’s going to be hard knocks for the rest of the the teams on the Jets schedule.
-Amen
