Staying Classy
http://espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/story/_/id/7144471/new-york-jets-rex-ryan-san-diego-chargers-stay-classy-san-diego
This past weeks football game between the Chargers and the Jets was a difficult one to watch for me personally. I know that being in New York right now, I am definitely the minority when it comes to that, but putting loyal aside for a second. It was a good football to watch. There was a lot of drama, there has been history between these two teams in recent years, and the team that was losing had an opportunity to win the game during the last minute. The Chargers managed to blow an eleven point lead after dominated the first half of the game. The Chargers came out flat while the Jets made some good halftime adjustments. After such a dramatic comeback, it begs the question, did the Chargers lose the game or did the Jets win the game? Chargers tight end Randy McMichael made his stance clear when he said that the Jets had no affect on the outcome of this game saying that the Chargers lost it. While former Charger and current Jets cornerback Antonio Cromartie says that the Jets won it. Jets head coach Rex Ryan didn't answer the question about who won or lost the game but did remind San Diego to stay classy.

So many different story lines hit me from this game, I wanted to start a blog on it alone. From Plax (can't believe he gave his wife footballs, Approved!!!) to Sanchez, and Jets back on the right flight (pun intended) the history, and the comeback. Great game!!!
ReplyDeleteI love all the drama. The Jets should have their own reality show. This was my favorite:
ReplyDelete"We were focused on Antonio Gates," Revis said. "(McMichael) didn't do nothing exciting in the game. I could see if he had five touchdowns or four touchdowns. He didn't do nothing special. I mean, he knocked me out (of bounds) on the interception. He's McMichaels. That's what his last name says on his jersey."
Told that it's McMichael, Revis said: "McMichael, McMichaels. I don't pay attention. The only people I know are Philip Rivers, (Ryan) Mathews, Antonio Gates, Vincent Jackson and Malcolm Floyd. Those are the people we were focused on for this game. ... Whatever he said was bogus."
As a Jets fan I do enjoy the weekly drama filled takes. Everyone voicing their opinion and making some big headline but something they say.
ReplyDeleteAs for this game, i do stand with the Jets winning it. Chargers were moving the ball very well in the 1st half and then we shut out completely in the 2nd. That doesn't happen unless the other team decides to show up. The Jets showed up.
