- He may be the lesser of evils but he is still deeply evil. His shenanigans with SCOTUS alone should be enough to consign him to hell. -- nm - Fuzzy Feb 28, 10:58 4

Jets have given QB Zach Wilson permission to seek a trade. -- nm - budice Feb 28, 10:05 10
- The whole coaching staff should be looking for a job as well. We're going to lose Wilson and Hall if things don't drastically change. - Krusty Feb 28, 10:09 9
  - its the Johnson's. All the Jets woes should be laid at their feet and no one else's. -- nm - Jovian Feb 28, 10:19 3
    - Yup but the coaches and front office are equally bad. They hire the wrong people time and time again. - Krusty Feb 28, 10:24 2
      - and your IM is why I ultimately don't get too upset about their woes. - Jovian Feb 28, 10:37 1
        
        I wish they'd sell the team but it would likely be another awful person that buys them. -- nm - Krusty Feb 28, 10:45
  - Getting Rodgers was an honest effort to get some better QB. Clearly they may need Plan B if Rodgers injury woes continue, or age creeps up -- nm - budice Feb 28, 10:11 4
    - I don't think it was. I think it was the owner wanting to make headlines more than him wanting a quality QB. He did it with Favre years ago. - Krusty Feb 28, 10:22 2

- I've never understood if scenery chewing is good or bad. - Beryllium Feb 28, 09:52 2
  - Depends how it serves the character and the story. In this case I’d say bad - Blackthorne is supposed to be a level-headed guy with the emotional - Roger More Feb 28, 10:39 1
    - it felt like he came in a lot hotter than that here (very Richard Burton) -- nm - hollywood big shot Feb 28, 10:41
