I really am a nice guy.  I should just sit here with my mouth shut and let the Jets do their usual silly things.  Yesterday I heard talk of Marty Schottenheimer (not the son) being considered as HC of the NYJ.  Marty is the Bobby Valentine of football.  He’ll get you close quickly, but never over the top.

Word today is that Bill Cowher told the Jets to MOSFU (trust me an MOSFU isn’t good).   That’s smart for Bill.

Meanwhile the Broncos did the Jets a favor by firing Mike Shanahan.  Back in September Shanahan was agenious when he went for two against the Chargers.  Now he’s a bum.   He’s one other thing, a winner.   The Broncos were never awful, and they always found players to replace other players.   If you play fantasy football you know this to be true.

The other thing Shanahan did was win with an old QB named John Elway.  

It seems like the Jets want someone who can deal with one more year of Brett, and then plug someone else into a system.   Mike is your guy.

So I pick the headline carefully – the Daily News blog posted this picture saying that the black uniforms have been tweaked.   I’m with those who believe this is just a random variant sold at Sports Authority.

Regardless, feel encouraged to discuss how hideous black jerseys are.

The Mets are considering taking a guy who hit .158 last year and I actually like the idea.

He’s Andruw Jones and he’s only 32, which is toddler-age for a typical Omar pickup…plus the rumor has the Dodgers paying much of the money.

Sure he was awful last year but in 2007 he hit 26 HRs with 94 RBI and in 2006 he was 41 with 129.

Could he have gotten that bad that fast?   Unless you think um his er workout strategy changed as many players routines seemed to change last year.

Part of the wild speculation is that maybe perhaps the Dodgers would take Castillo.

MLB.com is saying that the interest has cooled since the initial ESPN.com report but I say go for it.

Dear Bill Cowher,

When people hear your name they think “winner.”

I see today you turned down the Browns offer.

Don’t consider for even a second coming to the Meadowlands.

You can’t win.   The New Jersey Curse is too great.   Bill Parcells couldn’t defeat it and Brett Favre couldn’t defeat it.   Don’t come here for a one and done with Brett and then three years of 6 & 10.   Don’t tarnish your legacy by taking on the curse of the Same Old Jets.

Wait it out for one of the glamor franchises.  I could see you returning the Bears to glory some day.   You don’t want any part of the green.
