Tips / Bets It is Painful to be a NY Jets Fan

I posted about the Cam Newton fight at the Carolina Panthers training camp a couple of days ago. The NY Jets, not to be outdone, came up with this gem:

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The altercation in the New York Jets locker room that ended with quarterback Geno Smith suffering a broken jaw began as a dispute over $600, sources told ESPN.

Smith, who will miss at least six to 10 weeks with two fractures in his jaw, accepted a $600 plane ticket from IK Enemkpali to appear at the reserve linebacker's football camp in Pflugerville, Texas, on July 11, according to sources. Problems arose when Smith did not show to the camp, which took place days after someone close to Smith was killed in a motorcycle accident in Miami, sources said.

After Smith did not attend, Enemkpali demanded that the Jets quarterback refund him the $600 he allegedly used to purchase the plane ticket. Smith told Enemkpali he would reimburse him the money, but he had not as of Tuesday morning. Enkempali confronted Smith on Tuesday about the money, and the confrontation ended in a punch and a broken jaw.

Hey $600 is $600!

 

But it gets even better. Enemkpali was signed off waivers by Rex Ryan and the Buffalo Bills. Rex says he wants to establish a "bully" in Western New York.

Having already signed Ritchie Incognito (prior Miami Dolphin bully of teammate Jonathan Martin), he appears to be committed to the program.

 

How about being QPR fan?
Want Sanchez back from us? Anyway Geno isn't going to get you more than 20% win.

 

Wasn't too painful for you yesterday.

 

I have a cousin in Miami who reported that the Dolphins coach was relieved of his duties today. My response to him was that "you can't fire all the players..."

It was great to see the Jets win but it was less than dominating. Fitzpatrick is a maddening QB; brilliant streak, then terrible with the aim and/or judgment.

FYI: The Jets had more penalty yards that the Dolphins had running the ball.
