Jets followers haven’t had week. As Al Michaels as soon as so elegantly put it, “They’ve had a worse week than Harvey Weinstein.”
First, their offense will get obliterated by the New England Patriots’ protection. But, by some miracle, the Jets have been nonetheless within the recreation right down to the ultimate whistle. Lo and behold although, because the Jets tried to punt the ball away and pressure extra time, the Patriots scored their first punt return landing since Gunner Olszewski’s glow-up game in opposition to the Chargers in 2020. After the sport, the supposed franchise quarterback, Zach Wilson, blamed the protection for his or her loss, by which the Jets scored three factors, want I remind you. He proceeds to get benched for Mike White, assuaging among the ache Jets’ followers have been feeling, however simply when all was beginning to lookup, who else however the second-most notorious bust QB of all time has to take to Twitter and annihilate each Jets’ fan in a 10-mile radius.
From the highest rope, Leaf simply dunks on this fan’s head with no regret in any way. Take into consideration the kids, Ryan! Take into consideration all the children in center faculty proudly sporting their…Mark Sanchez jerseys? What jerseys do younger Jets followers put on these days? Like Sauce Gardner is a rookie, so he’ll have some however he’s not a throwback. Are there any viable throwback Jets jerseys? Nick Mangold? Darelle Revis? [Editor’s note: Revis is a solid choice.] That’s simply unhappy.
Again to the purpose, Ryan! It’s a must to take into consideration all the children of their Jets’ memorabilia, blissful to really feel like part of one thing larger than themselves. They’re not going to need to be followers after getting a actuality verify from the man drafted proper after Peyton Manning! That mentioned, I perceive feeling the necessity to eviscerate strangers on-line. We’ve all fallen into that lure a time or two, and Leaf couldn’t have executed the assault any higher.
With out hesitation, Leaf attacked this man, Twitter consumer @RJBJrThe3rd’s complete level of being. I imply, his Twitter bio is actually “The Jets and Knicks are so good.” Positive, he’s solely 20 years outdated, however that’s an grownup. He’s taken Enterprise 101, and so long as he was paying consideration in school, he ought to’ve realized on the primary day, that the relativity between “How a lot you fuck round” and “How a lot you’re going to search out out” is a straight line. The extra you fuck round, the extra you’re gonna discover out. And after entering into Leaf’s enterprise, he came upon actual fast.
Instantly, the Twitter consumer was in protection mode, dropping the basic “STFU” on Leaf. He additionally made enjoyable of a whole faith, which is rarely a great way to get the general public in your aspect. It was an fascinating maneuver. Did it repay? Under no circumstances. Leaf spent practically three years in a Montana jail from March 2012 to December 2014 on burglary and drug charges. He was alleged to serve 5 years however obtained out early. Based mostly on this Twitter thread, we are able to solely assume he spent these days locked up interested by how sorry the New York Jets franchise was/is.
It’s exhausting to argue in opposition to Leaf. The Jets have misplaced 9 straight in opposition to their division rival New England Patriots and 17 of their final 20. Within the final ten years, they’ve by no means completed higher than second of their division and have just one successful season. They haven’t reached the playoffs in that span, which may’t be mentioned about each different workforce of their division. Throughout varied seasons, the workforce’s main receiver was Jeremy Kerley (twice), Quincy Enunwa, and a person who as soon as claimed he was going to nut in a cop’s wife’s eye (twice as properly). We can also’t neglect in regards to the butt fumble.
It’s been a tragic existence, however I’ll give props to Jets followers, I haven’t seen too many luggage on heads. You put on that ugly inexperienced jersey with delight, it doesn’t matter what any fallen quarterback has to say. Possibly simply go away the Ryan Leaf jokes to the professionals although.
