    Finally somebody stepped up. I can't stand these shits, just a matter of time before somebody falls off one of those and breaks their kneecap, cracks their skull or tears somebodies achilles by running into them from behind.

    "It looks like I'm in the middle of the cartoon 'The Jetsons' with everybody rolling around on them," said new Jets coach Todd Bowles, who banned the scooters after the preseason.

    You want players to stay limber and walk through the bruises. Put a 300 lb lineman up on one of those for an hour a day as he moves around and he really loses something in the process.

    I'm just waiting for a guy like Andrew Luck to crash with one of those and land on IR with a broken collarbone or something. Well, Luck is probably too smart to do that. Or not stupid enough. Leave that to certain other QB's.

    Seems like a perfect mistake for Geno to make.

    Geno the Jaw would be showing (off) his leadership by doing a headstand on that contraption: "yo Brandon!...check this out!" ...crash!

    Exactly.

    We don't have a coach that talks big Mon-Sat and coaches small when the games are on.
    I expect us to be ready for fake punts and FG's, flea flickers, etc. Because we have a coach that isnt adding fodder to opposing locker rooms through sound bites.

    If the world's top athletes can't master riding around on a little scooter, then there's something wrong. Unless Bowles heard this from the locker room: "Hold my beer and watch this!!!"

    So he won't let them do this, but I bet he lets them drive cars.
