@K1ngNazJets @Dreamville_Heat @Michael_Nania That must be a lonely life for him

[Corey Long @CoreyLong]

@K1ngNazJets @Dreamville_Heat @Michael_Nania 99% of NFL games are won with coaching and preparation. You can't "out talent" people at this level, even with a better team on paper. The coaching and preparation are poor.

@TorelloSports Look at the way he tried to chase down that DB on a bum leg though! :)

[Corey Long @CoreyLong]

I am bad at a lot of things, but I'll never be as bad at one thing as Aaron Glenn is at making adjustments coming out of halftime.

[Corey Long @CoreyLong]

Even when teams try to give the Jets a turnover, that defense is like "nope, not today!"

Gutted to hear the news about SNY. I’ve had the privilege of working there the last 7 years. From working on “The Thread” and staying to host and report for Sportsnite. I always had other jobs, but none was like this. The people made it what it was - a family. I’m devastated for everyone affected. It’s a sad day for NY sports.

@golfer3691 @dannykanell The guy never made HS recruiting a priority for a second and kept horrible recruiting staffs with next to no ties in Florida.

@MrBill11 They should throw him the ball more

[Corey Long @CoreyLong]

@MikeHoncho1997 The last time they traded a player at the deadline off his demand was St. Louis. They will play it out and let him leave like they did with everyone else from this decade-long run.

[Corey Long @CoreyLong]

Yep, this feels like a swan song. That's life.

Jon Cooper on the Nikita Kucherov situation: "I will sit here and tell you nothing has changed in what our goals are this year just, maybe, the context of how it is going to go about. Kuch is 100% a part of this team. He wants to be a part of this team for this season and he is committed to be with the group that loves him and the group he loves. What I don't want to get skewed in all of this is if Kuch turns the puck over or the play does not go exactly his way and he shows frustration or, at some point, the coach who is coaching him is showing frustration with him or somebody else on the team and, then, everybody says, 'Oh my God. He wants out.' That will not be the case. Jon Cooper will coach the team the way Jon Cooper has always coached the team and Kuch is going to play like the superstar he is and the way he has for a decade and a half and that is how it is going to continue. All the rest of it is outside noise and, for Kuch internally, what happens after our season is over, that's Kuch's right and he has earned that right for whatever happens. For us, it probably made the team stronger."

[Corey Long @CoreyLong]

@MikeHoncho1997 They would absolutely let him walk for nothing.

[Corey Long @CoreyLong]

No, it's a real live distraction. But probably one they'll have to be mature enough to handle.

[Jay Recher @jayRecher]

Just to add....

I wouldn't say it's a "favor" or a "heads up" when your best player requests a trade publicly...

[Corey Long @CoreyLong]

@wyshynski @JLazzy23 Because if somehow you can get a title...that is something and it's worth a hell of a lot more than the 55 cents on a dollar in trade returns.

[Corey Long @CoreyLong]

@wyshynski @JLazzy23 If he's not going to re-sign. Play it out and try to win. If everyone knows what the deal is moving forward, then you're just trying to run it strong and win a Cup in 2026-27. The idea that you HAVE to get something for someone at the expense of the current season isn't a science

[Corey Long @CoreyLong]

@AbeGordon Damn Abe! Nice work.

[Corey Long @CoreyLong]

@MrBill11 A trade to the Chiefs is probably that reward.

[Corey Long @CoreyLong]

@ImBuiltFordTuff My bad man. :)

[Corey Long @CoreyLong]

It's interesting to see that some programs think losing to Stanford is a fireable offense.
