1/3 📣 Podcast News 📣
I’ll be taking a break from the podcast for the start of the season, return date tbd.

After 6 years and 160+ episodes, dads and I are ready to just sit back and watch a (hopefully) great Jets team with no “assignments” due on Tuesday.

Thread 🧵

Jalen Brunson is one of the greatest sports figures there’s ever been and the KING OF NEW YORK

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

The New York Knicks are NBA champions after the most resilient playoff run there’s ever been. LETS FUCKING GOOO!!!!

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

Truly unbelievable LGK

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

Really didn’t want to be complaining about the refs but they should be fined or suspended for egregious calls/non-calls. There’s been plenty of them

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

Three more. LGK

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

@ZazzyJets It’s unreal. We learn nothing and set ourselves up for disappointment. Our QB is coming in 2027 and Cade can compete for a backup role

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

@NYJ_Matt Does Adam Gase count

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

@RapSheet Does external affairs mean like that thing with Mike Vrabel?

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

Trading two 4th round picks to get Cade Klubnik is terrible

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

My 2 round prediction for the #Jets

2. Arvell Reese - Edge - OSU
16. Vega Ioane - OG - Penn St
33. Omar Cooper - WR - Indiana
44. Treydan Stukes - DB - Arizona

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

Hours more scouting- haven’t wavered. Arvell Reese is the unicorn of the draft and #2 is where you take a chance- the upside is tremendous.

Play it safe and build the foundation with the other picks.

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

I’m all in on the #Jets drafting
Arvell Reese with the second pick

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

No. Stick and pick someone else you could find 2-3 starters. Give up picks and draft Tyson, he could be hurt and it’s 0 players. We need to build a foundation

[𝙅𝙀𝙏𝙎 𝙈𝙀𝘿𝙄𝘼🛫 @NYJets_Media]

Would you want the Jets to trade up for WR Jordyn Tyson ?! 🤔

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

@Michael_Nania @jetsxfactor Trading up for a WR only makes sense if the upgrade is worth the asset cost. I don’t think it is. The top end talent next year should be better too

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

@Michael_Nania B 100%

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

@LegerDouzable Come on douz you don’t actually believe that

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

@TheJetPress Joey Bosa and Morris Claiborne skipped top 30 visits with the team that drafted with them. Plenty more never had top 30 visits- Ricky Pearsall, AD Mitchell, Drake London, JSN, etc

Teams often get enough from the combine and pro days

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

@JetNation I’m in on that

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

Are you kidding me UConn?! Arguably the greatest win & shot in NCAA history. CT continues to get it done- they are in a league of their own
#uconn

[This is the Jet Life @Jets_Dan]

@jdylanmoro Bill Murray’s son is an assistant coach for UConn. He’s at most UConn games
