I knew of nothing like what I read about the Jets all the time when I was a kid fifty years ago. Were pro football players much tamer then, or was it all covered up back in those days?

Nothing at all new for the J-E-T-S...I remember Richard Todd going after Steve Serby in 1981!

A lotta stuff got covered up in the old days. Sportswriters played more "buddy-buddy" with athletes, and coverage was more adulatory.

it gets stranger and strangerer. now comes this tidbit from the sportswire----

"8:45 PM: The Associated Press reports the New York Jets brought in sleep specialists this week to help their players get more rest. Coach Rex Ryan says: "I just think it's wise to do that .... If we can gain a little advantage, then we're going to look for it.""

True. He's a big blowhard. And a very poor judge of talent. Instead of recognizing that they made a mistake with Sanchez, they offer him a $20 million extension? Is this the new way of pretending that you know what you're doing? Denial all the way. Jets will be lucky to go .500 this year.

I hope Raiders receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey is OK. He was carted off the field after taking a shot to the helmet on a crossing pattern. He showed no signs of movement. Sending positive vibes his way. :(

Brutal hit. These replacement refs are letting a ton of head shots go in the games I watched today. Hope he's okay also.

Well, the Kool Aid wore off pretty quick for my team, the Redskins. Special Teams much improved; the defense is horrible, specifically the pass defense. The offense is doing all right, but they have to protect Griffin. Injuries are killing this team as well. Looking at the schedule, if they can win three more games this year I will be impressed.

Just saw a replay in which Darrius raised a hand to acknowledge the crowd. I'm relieved.

Brutal week of picks for us, Matthew.

Picks? What picks? It was my evil twin who picked the games for me this week.... Gosh, brutal is a nice way to put it, hopefully I can sneak wins in tonight and tomorrow. Speaking of brutal, the Chargers were just that this afternoon.
