Seasons greetings my fellow Jet fans! I?ve been trying for weeks to come up with something decent for post 1,200 (hence my lack of recent posts). After scraping a horrible first draft of ?A Jets Christmas Carol?, I came up with this little ditty. I tried to put in a little darkness and a little optimism, but in the end I think it is still pretty true to my style. I hope you enjoy it and I wish you and yours a happy and safe holiday season. DbJ ?The 12 Days of Jetsmas? On the first day of Jetsmas my football team gave to me A playoff dream to end in misery On the second day of Jetsmas my football team gave to me Two torn shoulders And a playoff dream to end in misery On the third day of Jetsmas my football team gave to me Three McCareins drops Two torn shoulders And a playoff dream to end in misery On the fourth day of Jetsmas my football team gave to me Four false starts Three McCareins drops Two torn shoulders And a playoff dream to end in misery On the fifth day of Jetsmas my football team gave to me Five running backs Four false starts Three McCareins drops Two torn shoulders And a playoff dream to end in misery On the sixth day of Jetsmas my football team gave to me Six rookies a playing Five running backs Four false starts Three McCareins drops Two torn shoulders And a playoff dream to end in misery On the seventh day of Jetsmas my football team gave to me Seven Hermism not flying Six rookies a playing Five running backs Four false starts Three McCareins drops Two torn shoulders And a playoff dream to end in misery On the eighth day of Jetsmas my football team gave to me Eight Coles catches made a leaping Seven Hermism not flying Six rookies a playing Five running backs Four false starts Three McCareins drops Two torn shoulders And a playoff dream to end in misery On the ninth day of Jetsmas my football team gave to me Nine plays with Rhodes a blitzing Eight catches Coles makes a leaping Seven Hermism not flying Six rookies a playing Five running backs Four false starts Three McCareins drops Two torn shoulders And a playoff dream to end in misery On the tenth day of Jetsmas my football team gave to me Ten Aussie punts a booming Nine plays with Rhodes a blitzing Eight catches Coles makes a leaping Seven Hermism not flying Six rookies a playing Five running backs Four false starts Three McCareins drops Two torn shoulders And a playoff dream to end in misery On the eleventh day of Jetsmas my football team gave to me Eleven defenders finally tackling Ten Aussie punts a booming Nine plays with Rhodes a blitzing Eight catches Coles makes a leaping Seven Hermism not flying Six rookies a playing Five running backs Four false starts Three McCareins drops Two torn shoulders And a playoff dream to end in misery On the twelfth day of Jetsmas my football team gave to me Twelve men on the field Eleven defenders finally tackling Ten Aussie punts a booming Nine plays with Rhodes a blitzing Eight catches Coles makes a leaping Seven Hermism not flying Six rookies a playing Five running backs Four false starts Three McCareins drops Two torn shoulders And a playoff dream to end in misery
I'm guessing you're a darksider. It would be cool if a few years down the road we could change one of those lines to.... Five Super Bowl rings!
How about I just made this one up... Oh Tannenbaum, Oh Tannenbaum What talent have you brought for me? Oh Tannenbaum, Oh Tannenbaum What is that under-neath my tree? Is it a Christmas I'll n'ere forget? A playoff win, it is, I'll bet! Oh Tannenbaum, Oh Tannenbaum Your GM mas-tery amazes me.
Jingle Bells, Miami smells Harrington laid an egg Taylor Says, "what the Hell?" We let Drew Brees get away.
Silent stadium, empty stadium All is calm, all is bright orange seats Round yon Harrington, Taylor, and Brown Nick Saban so tender and mild Lose to the Jets in peace Lose to the Jets in peace
I'm really a sunshiner on the inside, but years of shattered dreams have built a thick darksider exterior. Case in point...I am really excited about the next two weeks...daring to dream about a playoff appearance, but I am sure that they will find some new and horrific way to break my heart...yet again.
I'M DREAMING OF A GREEN CHRISTMAS 1st Verse: I'm dreaming of a green Christmas When we're down south of Or-lan-do Where the Dolphins miss them, And children listen To hear, how they really blow I'm dreaming of a green Christmas With every playoff hope we dream May all our DEF shots be clean And may all your Christmases be green 2nd Verse: I'm creaming for a green Christmas A blowout seen throughout the land Where the Phins fans shout out As they get blown out With Jets playoffs near at hand I'm dreaming of a green Christmas With every pass from Chadwick's arm May his throws all keep us from harm And may all the critics be darned
