To add to the insanity this week, Mexican TV reporter Ines Sainz (the woman who claimed harassment by the Jets as she tried to interview Sanchez last year) comes out and says she picks the Jets to win the Super Bowl. Why would a woman who accused this team of being disrespectful to her do this? I guess this sort of incongruous and totally gratuitous kind of thing is now commonplace in the soap opera As Gang Green Turns, but such is what we have come to expect from the team and those associated with it.
So we go into this game on Sunday with lots of drama, but none of it matters in any way except to keep the reporters talking, the fans squawking, and the players rumbling. The only thing that truly matters is when Tom Brady and Mark Sanchez walk on that field in Foxborough this Sunday. They are the ones that will be doing battle, as Darth Bull and Rex Piewalker are on the sidelines. Until then, I guess we are just going to have to put up with these ongoing Jets and Patriots and their fun and games.

So glad you wrote this up (love the "Rex Piewalker" nickname). I'm doing my own Jets-Pats piece too but am waiting 'til the latest injury reports come in before I finalize my preview (remember that last time these two teams played, Jim Leonard got injured the Friday before the game).
May the better team win Sunday, my friend!

I missed it. What did Cromartie call Brady? A C%$ksucker?
There's a rumor going around New England that the fans at Gillete will unveil a new chant based on the Jets J-e-t-s chant. it goes f-e-e-t feet, feet, feet.

Well, Arch, that would play into my feeling that Ryan will either know the thrill of victory or the agony of the feet.
