SecondHandJets :	(Yesterday, 02:08 PM) Me and my wife stayed at the Mirage but we had a rental so we just came and went, we only went clubbing on the strip. I didn't gamble a penny in those casinos
santana :	(Yesterday, 02:09 PM) I knew something felt off I had a lot more fun at some salsa cantina spot that had a deal on coronas as opposed to any of the higher end bars in the casinos
SecondHandJets :	(Yesterday, 02:09 PM) The strip sucks. Unless you work there, anyone who lives in vegas never actually goes there. It's like Times Square
santana :	(Yesterday, 02:10 PM) Yeah the clubs were nice but all the bull shit and bars surrounding the pathways of the casinos were all some bull shit
SecondHandJets :	(Yesterday, 02:10 PM) I found a shit load of ill strip joints about 20 min away and was just chilling there
azjetfan :	(Yesterday, 02:23 PM) When I lived in Tucson I used to go to Vegas every year for Interbike. Never really liked it. Not my thing. Rather be in the mountains or on the beach or golf course. the people force handing those flyers are crazy sometimes.
HarlemHxC814 :	(Yesterday, 03:43 PM) damn near fell asleep in the jury box lol
HarlemHxC814 :	(Yesterday, 03:44 PM) I hope the case drags on as long as it can...trying to minimize being at work as much as possible lol
azjetfan :	(Yesterday, 03:44 PM) I am the opposite. I say right from the get go " If its gotten to this point they must be guilty
azjetfan :	(Yesterday, 03:45 PM) I am gone in 15 minutes everytime
azjetfan :	(Yesterday, 03:46 PM) The judge gave me crap once but I said I was unwilling to tell a lie
HarlemHxC814 :	(Yesterday, 03:50 PM) lmfao
HarlemHxC814 :	(Yesterday, 03:51 PM) I come from a very political family so I dropped that card thinking that they would excuse me
azjetfan :	(Yesterday, 03:51 PM) I was called to jury duty in AZ after I moved to WI. When I said I moved to WI they said since I still had a AZ DL and owned a home there I had to come. So I said OK come get me nad bring me to the court house. (they are required in AZ to do so if requested). Needless to say I was excused.
HarlemHxC814 :	(Yesterday, 03:51 PM) my grandfather was a high ranking judge in NY and so is my uncle currently
HarlemHxC814 :	(Yesterday, 03:51 PM) haha thats awesome
HarlemHxC814 :	(Yesterday, 03:52 PM) imagine they came and got you
azjetfan :	(Yesterday, 03:52 PM) I would not mind doing it but 40% of my income is either commision or incentive based.
azjetfan :	(Yesterday, 03:53 PM) I already give time to the chamber and other nonprofits
azjetfan :	(Yesterday, 03:53 PM) I would have been pissed.
HarlemHxC814 :	(Yesterday, 03:53 PM) yeah I dont blame you
azjetfan :	(Yesterday, 03:53 PM) Although they would have to give me a hotel room and board for that
HarlemHxC814 :	(Yesterday, 03:53 PM) my boss is up my ass about not accepting the money they give you
HarlemHxC814 :	(Yesterday, 03:53 PM) at least on the days I have to work
HarlemHxC814 :	(Yesterday, 03:54 PM) said they'll find me and come arrest me lol
azjetfan :	(Yesterday, 03:54 PM) Could have been a mini vaca
azjetfan :	(Yesterday, 03:54 PM) Isnt it like $4 a day or something?
azjetfan :	(Yesterday, 03:55 PM) I think in AZ it is enough for lunch or something
HarlemHxC814 :	(Yesterday, 03:56 PM) $40 here in NYC
HarlemHxC814 :	(Yesterday, 03:57 PM) per day
azjetfan :	(Yesterday, 03:57 PM) What is that... Cab fare
HarlemHxC814 :	(Yesterday, 04:50 PM) damn well should be
Jetsfan0099 :	(Yesterday, 04:53 PM) Sounds like it may not be as bad with Goodson. I could see him ending up with a 4 game suspension for possession, the gun charges probably going to the other guy.
Jetsman05 :	(Yesterday, 05:44 PM) WHERE SHOULD I GET DINNER FROM
Jetsfan115 :	(Yesterday, 05:49 PM) i'd order a steak from idzik but he'd just give me a hamburger and try to pass it off as steak and when i cought him in the act he'd gie me a million dollars to make up for it
Jetsman05 :	(Yesterday, 05:55 PM) awesome analogy, makes a ton of sense
azjetfan :	(Yesterday, 08:31 PM) Are you off your meds again 115?
SecondHandJets :	(Yesterday, 09:00 PM) 115 is hilarious
SecondHandJets :	(Yesterday, 09:00 PM) I loled
HarlemHxC814 :	(Today, 08:53 AM) Tehhhhh
MikeGangGree... :	(Today, 09:28 AM) I got to work late tonight but I just wanted to say.......
MikeGangGree... :	(Today, 09:28 AM) THE KNICKS!!!!

Jim Popp, GM of Montreal Alouettes in CFL, is believed to be on Jets GM radar as well, I'm told. He had been in mix for Panthers job #nyj

#Jets hired a search firm for their GM job, but it sure seems the search firm is just contacting candidates after reading about them.

Better way to say this: Search firm for #Jets GM seems to be reacting to twitter before they contact candidates

So if they interview the consensus best candidates, they're doing a poor job.

And if they interview people who no one has heard of, they're doing a poor job.

Cool story.

Here is a piece on some of the guys they are interviewing.

http://www.nfl.com/n...s-week-14-notes

Quote

Brian Gaine, Miami Dolphins assistant GM: Miami's been up and down, but one rival GM told me Gaine "really knows what he's doing. And I think he's ready." Gaine has a diverse and varied background and is considered the kind of people person who can be a unifying force.

Quote

Tom Gamble, San Francisco 49ers director of player personnel: A name on the cusp, Gamble has pro and college scouting background, as well as coaching experience. He interviewed in St. Louis last year; that the Niners have sustained last season's success only helps his cause.

Quote

John Idzik, Seattle Seahawks vice president of football administration: Idzik is a sleeper to keep an eye on, because of his versatility. He's a business-side guy who runs the team's cap, but he also does some college scouting for Schneider and has a wealth of experience with franchise rebuilds, going back to Dungy's Bucs.

Quote

Omar Khan, Pittsburgh Steelers director of football and business administration: Long seen as Bill Cowher's GM, Khan might now be less inclined to wait on a coach who might never come back. A really good leader who knows the business, Khan might need to be paired with a strong personnel guy, but he can do the job.

Quote

Marc Ross, New York Giants director of college scouting: A finalist in Chicago last year, Ross is in the running for the Panthers job now. The book on Ross: He's a good communicator and evaluator with, as one Giants official put it, "an executive skill set." One question that came up in my research: Can he win the interview with the owner?

@RichCimini Previous reports that the #Jets interviewed Russ Ball (Packers) and Jim Popp (Montreal) aren't true.

Keep hearing former Broncos GM Ted Sundquist was particularly impressive last Thursday when interviewing for Jets GM job. Sleeper candidate.

Jets doing 2nd interviews Tues. would expect guys like Omar Khan, Russ Ball, Scott Cohen to be in the mix. Sounds like Jerry Angelo is not

It appears Jets will go with external candidate to be new GM (Khan & Idzik have had 2nd interviews). I'm hearing Scott Cohen is on periphery

I love how quiet and thorough the GM search has been:

Quote

@MMehtaNYDN: I'm told former Saints & Dolphins GM Randy Mueller interviewed for Jets' GM job last week. (Angelo & Sundquist also had prior GM exp. #nyj
