1. I am not sure if anyway complained that the stadium was half empty after halftime -- but -- I have been a season ticket buyer/holder since 2000 and have been going to since the 70's -- this was as uncomfortable as it gets. It was cold and wet and although it never came down hard -- it never stopped. 2. Its funny that when you are at the game (without a radio) you have much less of an idea of whats going on than if you are at home. From what the fans saw on the board, it looked like Cotchery was down by contact -- and the place went nuts after that. (They have to re-do the whole "not reviewable" thing -- why do we always seem to be in the middle of this garbage. 3. That TD -- although the jets scored right away -- set the tone. The Jets run had been marked by their ability to score right away and play with a lead. 4. Someone said that Mangini looked clueless. You mean the only way to coach is to yell and scream like Cowher and Billick. Nonesense. That only makes you look like you know whats going on.
The one thing that I really don't like about being at the stadium is that when there is a controversial call or a challenge, they will only show a replay on the jumbotron that is favorable to the jets. They do not show the full replay or the different angles that the refs are seeing or that we would see if we are watching at home. I'm sure it's done intentionally this way.
True. And also, they dont show good plays by the other team. Not as bad as the Yankees though -- who will NEVER show anything that is against or maybe against the Yankees.
From The minute I woke up on Sunday and looked out the Window I said to myself. This is what it means to "Rain on your Parade". A dreary Day that could have been special. I thought that Jones TD run was a wake up call but NO! The entire game Us Fans really did not know what the hell was going on. A fumble is covered, oh no it's not. Guys are on the Ground, there not on the ground. He is out of bounds, Oh wait no he's not. He is clearly in the endzone, no they spot it on the 1. It was just a "weird" game.
The problem I have with attending a late game on Sunday is that it takes up an entire day. Taking the bus to the stadium and getting soaking wet for 4 quarters while doing nothing during the MANY TV timeouts. Then leaving is a hassle and a half as the line for the bus back to the city runs forever, and god forbid you want to stay until the last snap. You get home around 10pm and have to be up early for work the next morning. No thanks.
