By Gregg L. Hayim It is my belief that dynasties don’t end, they die. In this day and age of free-agency and the salary cap, sport dynasties have become a thing of the past. That’s what made this Patriot team of the last half decade so special. We watched in awe as this team replaced… Read more

The Patriots lost to the Colts in the AFC Championship game by a score of 38 – 34.  I would go into details of the game but it really doesn’t matter.  All you need to know is that Reche Caldwell is not Deion Branch.  And that cutoff hoodie sweatshirts are still not in style. Good… Read more

By Gregg L. Hayim This time of year has always been tough on me. The taxing emotional involvement required to be a Jet fan during a playoff run takes its toll. When the season ends, as it always does, instantly and disappointingly, the withdrawals are not kind. Like a smoker stripped of his pack; I… Read more

By Tyson Rauch Well Super Bowl time is approaching and as usual the focus of my energy will be on my office pool boxes and analyzing the commercials.  Once again the New York Jets will not be participants in the championship game and that streak is on its way to 40 years.  The new thinking… Read more

The most telling stat of all, Pennington led the Jets to the playoffs for… Read more

By Tyson Rauch Gone was the smell of bratwurst and sausage that wafted throughout the parking areas.  Gone was the festive feeling and tone of football friendship and camaraderie.  Gone was the feeling that it was only a football game and we were all there to enjoy it.  From the state troopers who threatened to… Read more

By Brian Roe  It’s not our time. It’s as simple as that. When the Jets traveled up to Foxboro this past weekend and received a 37-16 thumping at the hands of the decade’s best football team, this much was clear. But instead of the tired and expected “Same Old Jetsâ€? denunciation, Jet fans were overcome… Read more

By Gregg L. Hayim I’m not going to lie, this is not what I had in mind. No, this is definitely not what I had in mind when I woke-up yesterday with those feelings of internal optimism and outward boldness that often accompany a day that offers such opportunity. I woke up with those same… Read more

By Nick Ferraro The regular season in the NFC seemed a lot like a demolition derby.  For seventeen laps the cars slammed into each other with reckless abandon.  There are only six still running all of which have varying degrees of damage.  It’s that damage, however, that gives the NFC playoffs an increased appeal.  The… Read more
