BREAKING: Superstar outfielder Juan Soto and the New York Mets are in agreement on a 15-year, $765 million contract, sources tell ESPN. It is the largest deal in professional sports history.
Give this interview with @dhurley15 two minutes of your time.
It’s not just about recruiting good players. It’s about having the right people in and around your program.
It only takes one player, parent or coach to bring divisiveness into a locker room and kill a culture.
Immediately following the initial attacks on the World Trade Center, tunnels were closed, and traffic fleeing Manhattan via bridges reached a standstill.
Many civilians, especially in those neighborhoods closest to the attacks, were desperate to escape the island but had no way to do so.
Luckily, their salvation came like lightning. A coast guard transmission went out. “All available boats,” it said. “This is the United States Coast Guard… Anyone wanting to help with the evacuation of Lower Manhattan report to Governors Island.”
Within minutes, around 150 private ships of all shapes, sizes, and purposes reported for duty and got to work. All told, these heroic captains transported around 500,000 people away from the disaster zone.
This came to be known as the 9/11 Boat Lift, which to this day, is the largest water evacuation in history.
Maybe I’m wrong, but I don’t hate this question. IMO: It’s valid.
Robert Saleh was known for his passion, emotion on sideline of games in San Fran. That’s been gone during loses.
Question is asking him to open up, share what’s on his mind.
This portion of a quote from Garrett Wilson stood out to me when asked why #Jets offensive staff can’t scheme him open like other teams do their stars
“I gotta figure out how to be better, run better routes, be better in the meeting rooms, figure out how I can be involved early."
Admire Wilson taking accountability. One of few this year with thumb out instead of index finger. What’s wild: He’s probably the LAST one to blame for this futility.
Excuse making from #NYJ this year too much. Routinely blaming who’s not here/what they don’t have instead of trying to figure out how to make it work with who they do. That’s rubbing players the wrong way.
Staff members from Jets, Falcons and league office in a joint stair climb at MetLife Stadium to honor the legacy of the late Greg Knapp, who was killed by a distracted driver in 2021. The Coach Knapp Memorial Fund is raising money for distracted driving initiatives. #Jets
Cardinals moved on from Rosen immediately, 49ers allowed others to compete and beat Trey Lance for the starting QB job, the Jets force feed Zach Wilson out there 3 straight seasons for pride and ego.
The #Jets can scream as loud as they want that this isn’t on Zach Wilson, he’s a more confident player, others have to be better, etc. They have to, too, as to not fracture his ego.
My concern would be, much like last year, the rest of the locker room. They see the film. They’re at every practice. You can’t fool players. They know what’s holding them back. Yes, the OL is an issue, but they see the consistent missed throws due to poor accuracy, failure to have eyes in the right place, refusal to pull trigger to open guys/delayed reads.
The #NYJ offense averaged 400+ yards per game last year without Wilson. The one constant to this team’s continued struggles is the quarterback, as @TMKSonYES pointed out.
With that said: This is not the week to make a change. That would come if this offense again can’t get out of its way against a bad #Raiders team.
The Jets are lucky to be 4-4. They can’t waste this defense
