Jets are doing jets related things also... THE KNICKS.
SecondHandJets Icon : (Yesterday, 03:21 PM) You're not in NY. All the backpages are focused on Sanchez
SecondHandJets Icon : (Yesterday, 03:21 PM) None of the NY media even mention Cruz or Nicks
Jetsfan115 Icon : (Yesterday, 03:40 PM) nicks isn't holding out. he's injured still and taking it easy. cruz is holding out. why it isn't a big ordeal IDK. it would be for us
Jetsman05 Icon : (Yesterday, 04:02 PM) maybe because theyre not that far off.
Jetsman05 Icon : (Yesterday, 04:02 PM) Cruz wants to return back, they'll figure it out.
Jetsfan115 Icon : (Yesterday, 04:41 PM) 3 mil a year off or 30% less then cruz wants. tahst alot of money to be off
Jetsfan115 Icon : (Yesterday, 04:41 PM) cruz doens't want to leave NY cause teh extra money he'll get in endorsements plus he knows taht they can RFA him this year and then Franchise next year so he might not be able to get a LTD for 3 years
Mr_Jet Icon : (Yesterday, 05:21 PM) Clemens11/Tebow15 (soon to be Smith7) said if we had just drafted Crabtree and Nicks and kept Clemens, we'd be good.
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Yesterday, 06:44 PM) No, he can't be Smith7
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Yesterday, 06:44 PM) his name is reserved for garbage QBs, we don't want Geno to be bad
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Yesterday, 06:44 PM) He can be McElroy14
extmenace Icon : (Yesterday, 06:51 PM) we're taking bridgewater next year with the number 1 pick and treating geno like a jimmy clausen.
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Yesterday, 06:53 PM) What makes Bridgewater better than Geno?
HurricaneJet32 Icon : (Yesterday, 07:12 PM) everything
Jetsman05 Icon : (Yesterday, 07:56 PM) ^
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Yesterday, 08:16 PM) college players always get hyped up before the draft process, just wondering what makes him so much better.
Jetsman05 Icon : (Yesterday, 08:19 PM) Stronger arm, plays in a pro system, better throwing motion, better athlete
Jetsman05 Icon : (Yesterday, 08:19 PM) there's probably nothing Geno does right now that's better than what Teddy does
SecondHandJets Icon : (Yesterday, 10:25 PM) Wouldn't it be funny with Bridgewater ends up having the type of season Barkley had?
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 07:48 AM) better athlete but never runs as well
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 07:48 AM) stronger arm but rarely throws deep
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 07:48 AM) I am trying to find this article, but Bridgewater had about the least amount of 40+ throws in college football
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 07:49 AM) I wouldn't surprise me if he wasn't viewed as highly next year. College players always get hyped up a year before the draft process. People change their opinions quickly.
Jetsman05 Icon : (Today, 07:56 AM) I'll put a good amount of money that Bridgewater is still highly regarded coming out next year.
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 08:00 AM) ok I found the chart
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 08:00 AM) Bridgewater had 0% of his passes go 40+ yards in college
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 08:02 AM) he could be, I'll wait though
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 08:02 AM) I doubt Smith will be as bad as Clausen anyways
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 08:03 AM) I remember watching Clausen in a NFL game and the guy couldn't even throw a spiral.
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 08:03 AM) Geno has been impressing teammates with how well he can spin the ball and sling it.
Jetsman05 Icon : (Today, 08:31 AM) I hope Geno turns out to be a f***ing monster
Jetsfan115 Icon : (Today, 10:52 AM) andrew luck was hyped up for like 3 years before he entered teh draft
Jetsman05 Icon : (Today, 11:34 AM) tehhhh
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 11:37 AM) it wasn't for 3 years and Andrew Luck is the best QB prospect to come out in years. Teddy Bridgewater most likely isn't Luck or RGIII
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 11:40 AM) I've only seen Bridgewater play once. That was against Florida, I actually watched that game.
Jetsman05 Icon : (Today, 12:12 PM) Teddy will be a good NFL QB I think
MikeGangGree... Icon : (Today, 12:52 PM) THE KNICKS
Jetsman05 Icon : (Today, 01:21 PM) THE. KNICKS.
SecondHandJets Icon : (Today, 02:43 PM) Geno was the favorite to win the Heisman this time last year
SecondHandJets Icon : (Today, 02:44 PM) He was also a Top 5 pick this time last year
SecondHandJets Icon : (Today, 02:44 PM) If he came out in 2012, he might have gotten drafted before RG3
SecondHandJets Icon : (Today, 02:56 PM) TEH KNICKS
Jetsfan0099 Icon : (Today, 03:25 PM) noway he would have been drafted before RGIII
HarlemHxC814 Icon : (Today, 04:00 PM) Tehhhh
Jetsfan115 Icon : (Today, 04:12 PM) chuck norris said tebow is a great QB. i'm so conflicted becuase tebow sucks but on the other hand if chuck norris said it, it must be true lol

Onyewu Set For Marseille Switch
The transfer saga of Oguchi Onyewu appears set to end finally, and Chelsea have missed out.

The Standard Liege defender has been linked with a host of clubs since summer: AC Milan, Chelsea, Fulham, Inter, Lazio, Lyon, Middlesbrough, Newcastle United, Porto and Real Madrid. Chelsea, Newcastle and Porto were the most recent suitors for the American center-back.

Today, however, it appears "Gooch" will move back to France and play for Olympique Marseille, currently tied for second in Ligue 1 with Lens.

Both Marseille and Lens, though, trail first place and defending champions Lyon by a healthy 14 points.

Oguchi Onyewu has previous French experience, having played three times for FC Metz and 24 games for La Louvière during a loan spell before moving to Belgium in 2004.

The U.S. international cost Marseille an estimated $4 million.

"A final agreement will be signed over the weekend with Marseille," read a statement on the Standard Web site.

Onyewu blossomed while in Belgium, and the 24-year-old heads back to France having been named to the Jupiler League best eleven at the conclusion of the past two Belgian seasons.

Damn I thought for sure he would have ended up in the EPL, I guess I was wrong, and does anyone know if he's playing against Mexico on Feb 7.

Thanks for the Memories

Bradley put in a request for him I believe along with 7 or 8 other European players. It's an open window date by FIFA so we should see him.

$4 million is a bargain for Onyewu as that's roughly £2 million and rumours in the English press were that a team would have to pay between £4-5 million ($8 - 10 million) for him.

I just read that myself on Goal.com. Shits changing so quick with this dude lol. First Fulham. Then Fulham falls through and hes staying at Leige. Then Fulham regroups and makes another offer. The AC MIlan shows interest. Then nothing happens for two weeks. Then suddenly, out of nowhere Chelsea, Inter, AC Milan, Real Madrid, Marseille, Lyon, Fulham and Newcastle are all showing alot interest. Then it seems like Marseille wins. Now hes in Newcastle taking a physical. Well only 2 more days until the transfer window is closed and we'll know for sure who wins Gooch. I must say though, its a great sign for United States football that Oguchi Onyewu is getting looked at by major clubs.




Now speaking of Newcastle. I saw an excellent (IMO) movie called Goal! The Dream Begins. Its about an illegal Mexican immigrant who lives in the USA and gets an opportunity of a lifetime to play for Newcastle United. Got a few nice cameos in there too. Raul, Zizou and David Beckham are in it. Smeds if you havent seen it, you should, I thought it was great and it did justice to the game.

Newcastle are equally as talented as Fulham and are in dire need of a solid central defender. It's good experience for him anyway you look at it and it's yet another American in the Premier League. He will bring, as with all the other US players, a blue collar approach to the games and work his ass off rather than show off like other foriegners and shy away from playing physically.

Newcastle is having a down year but they are pretty prestigious club in the Premiership. He's going to face great competition regardless.
