Which brings us to the WFAN Fantasy Phenom, win your own show contest.  The station along with sponsors, Conn. School or Broadcasting, and Buffalo Wild Wings food joint have teamed up to offer this position.  They promote it so frequently and so heavily I feel like I myself had auditioned even though I had ZERO intention of it, but the media is the massage as they say and I suppose it is as I did the inconceivable for me, I figured “WTF I’m going to go try out for this.”  After all I have worked in professional sports for years, am a fantasy football god of sorts and have logged more hrs. listening to that station that I’d ever want to admit to myself.

You could be the next Steve Sommers or Tony Paige!

They hold auditions twice a week, on Saturdays and NY metro area malls, and Wednesdays and metro area Buffalo Wild Wing Restaurants.  The Malls window is from 10:30 am – 12:30 pm and 100 people get selected to be interviewed and of those 100 about 24 will rant (I think that’s how the mall works).  I of course didn’t pick that because I cant be up for 10:30 let alone be down there at 7am or whatever it would take to get a good spot in line.  I chose the latter the Wild Wings location, it’s much smaller and only one person will make it through into the contest so there are draw backs, but its 7:30 pm and I think all I need is one shot anyway, so there ya go.

I drove out to Long Island, found this Wild Wings place around 5pm and there was a small group of people already waiting to be interviewed, i heard they started interviewing around 2:30pm off and on.  So I figured “ok well at least I’m early enough.”  I also thought since i was only about the 15th person on the line that I’d get interviewed relatively quickly, umm, NOPE two hours later I was still waiting, but I was ok with waiting because I knew what I was in for.

Decided to go from the big Coney to someplace called Babylon. I don't think Babylon is a fair name now that i have been there. Anyway way the F out on Long Island

The line was a collection of all types, by and large I must say they were a good group.  We had as you would expect many young 20 something guys looking for a career jump-start, plenty of 30 somethings looking for a career change, and a decent amount of 40+ somethings I suppose looking for something new.  Of course there were a few “famous” callers on hand like Rob from Lake Success decked out in his custom Star of David Jewish league hockey jersey, running around like a minor celebrity.  Other conversations on the line were the usual, sports trivia psych out sessions, and general I’m better than you without saying it grapplings.  What does that mean you wonder, I’ll give you random examples…

"I know more than you what are you even doing here" convo's (see below)

Person A: “I wonder if this is fair or fixed or what, I wasn’t going to come but I figured it’s close let me see”

Person B: “Yeah me to I was close”

Person A: “Radio is crazy, have you worked in radio?”

Person B: “nope”

Person A: (with a sly dismissive laugh) “I did for 8 yrs on Brooklyn College radio, I had a popular show and a good following”

Person B: “oh yeah, cool”

We all know what A was trying to do there, right?

Me, no me, no! ME, Umm no ME!

AND many many of these…

Person A: “they ask alot of trivia here, i hear it’s hard stuff”

Person B: “yeah i heard that too like who was the coach of the Giants SuperBowl losing team, you know Fossil”

A: “Nah i heard harder like how many doubles did Wally Backman have for the Mets in 1987?”

B: “Gees, that’s tough, who would even know that”

A: “6″

B: “oh yeah that’s good, i heard they ask what size shoe Joe Namath’s mom wore, it’s 8 by the way.”

Of course there was one line favorite that everyone got to know as time marched on, oh I’m sure every line has one.  The character that is just off, with his way of dressing, speaking, leaning in, harassing the only female on the line and asking the same question to everyone on the line, which of course has literally a TEN-part answer.  At first everyone thinks to themselves “ok I’ll be nice to him because he’s obviously weird and a loner and I’m going to be a good person” which lasts about 3 minutes before you realize “wait loners are loners because no-one can stand them!” And you pray he latches on to someone else and then when he does you’re both shamed and relieved it’s not you anymore.

This picture is from the bigger Mall tryout, and I kid you not the guy in the front shielding his eyes, is the 10 part answer guy! He goes to em all I guess.

So everyone, is chatting with whomever they are closest in proximity to on line & trying to avoid eye contact with others.  Assuming naturally, you’re going to be interviewed by someone even loosely affiliated with WFAN radio or it’s parent radio company.  Seems obvious, no?  Well, never think your idea of obvious is reality, such as the guy asking out the woman on line with a huge wedding ring.  Obvious I suppose is relative.

As it turns out the interviewers were Buffalo Wild Wings marketing people.  But the prize is a show on WFAN, should restaurant marketers really be the screeners in this scenario?  Of course none of us knew they were Wild Wings employees, until it was revealed though inside information later in the evening.

The screeners to decide who gets a WFAN Sunday 4:30am -6am shift

Three people alternated screening the contestants, one rocker looking fella who seemed nice enough, another guy who didn’t last long, and a woman who would much rather text then talk to these “wanna be losers” in front of her (my impression anyway).  So my turn draws near and I’m going to speak to the rocker guy and I’m thinking “OK cool he seems affable he gave the 10 part trivia question guy like 8 minutes so I can get across why I’m here” but fate steps in in the form of the Buffalo Wild Wings store manager.  At the exact moment I was due to sit,  she moves in and proceeds to have a convo. for 6 minutes as I wait.  Then rocker guy motions to the female texting screener and says “take over I have to go do something now.” At that moment all I could think was, “Oh sh*t this just went from 1% chance too 0.000001″

I sat down said hi and gave her my forms after she texted some more, she looked up and said “hi where’s your forms” i said right here and she took them and said “ok what teams do you like” I answered, she then shuffled some papers asked me three Mets questions, of which I got about 65% of the answers right.  She said “ok so why are you here” I gave a very brief explanation.  She glazed over me and said ok thanks we’re gonna sort piles and let the good people know.  So off i went to wait with the other interviewed lot.

"Umm, ok yeah, one sec., you like teams or something? Y are you here? Just one more sec"

Everyone was hoping they were in, even after they extended the interview deadline an extra half hour for late arrivers thus lessening the early birds’ chances.  As we sat, some ate, some looked around and tried to figure who got through on look or craziness alone, others got hostile, some exuded a quiet confidence of “i made it i know it.” Some made notes about the rant they were going to do.

Then the moment came the rocker guy announced the 24 people that qualified to rant in front of WFAN-talent Anita Marks and some big beard guy whose name I do not know.  As the names were announced the first couple were met with applause but with each passing name the applause became less and less until finally there were none.  At which point rocker marketer guy said “hey clap and support these people” or something, so some fake clapping then followed.

Then came the anger, all the chaps that weren’t picked despite their obvious brilliance complained, “it was the girl,” “I got a bad question,” “they want a certain type” one dejected young fella who was very much in love with himself and spent the day smiling and subliminally trying to convince everyone they should wish they were him, turned to the only woman amongst the auditoners, who mind you he’d been speaking so friendly to just moments earlier and charmingly said “you got through because you have tits, if I had tits I’d have gotten though too.” And then upon finding out her topic went on to charm her with “that topic sucks no-one in this room cares, here’s great topic” and of course handed her his notes and acted like he was doing her a huge favor.  Thankfully, she politely declined.  I am left to wonder why this silver tongued devil, didn’t say to the lone large black man in the room that qualified “It’s that black skin if I had that black skin I’d be though too.”

According to some Amy Reid and women like her are "built" for radio!

Oh humanity in all its splendor, well in case you didn’t figure it out, your Jerk hero (me) did not advance to round 2 and didn’t rant.  But i really wasn’t bitter at all.  Do I blame my screener?  Nope not really, her not caring probably didn’t make difference.  But why did I do it then you wonder?  Well, I just heard the ad so many times I figured Hmm, “I have the background, I know the material, i have the degree and even at 4am on that radio it’d be a way to get the Big Jerk Network out there.”  Thus maybe having more than 30 twitter followers and 40 watches on the animations after a month.  Gotta get the word out somewhere.

Another master plan for the scrap heap, right next to the hover board & Ralph Kramden’s Chef of the Future.  Learning once more, don’t be a dreamer and if you pass the police test TAKE THE JOB!!!!!

I seriously, have no problems at all with any of it though, I wish the best for those that made it through & I pray they find someone interesting because that station really is HURTING BAD for talent outside of Francesa & the Morning team.

Nonetheless, I shall go back to the grass roots, one animation view BigJerkNetwork and twitter follower @BigJerkNetwork at a time!

I wish they had these cutouts at the audition I attended, it would have been a real jolt like "WTF are you doing look at that staff, no promotion is worth that" I hope no small children passed these in the malls or nightmares will ensue.

Bill Gates recently gave a speech at a High School about 11 things they did not and will not learn in school. He talks about how feel-good, politically correct teachings created a generation of kids with no concept of reality and how this concept set them up for failure in the real world.

Rule 1: Life is not fair – get used to it!

Rule 2: The world doesn’t care about your
self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won’t be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.

Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping: they called it opportunity.

Rule 6: If you mess up, it’s not your parents’ fault, so don’t whine about your mistakes, learn from them.

Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren’t as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent’s generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.

Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they’ll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn’t bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.

Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don’t get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.

Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.

Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you’ll end up working for one.

This may be one of those internet Hoaxes, I don’t know but it’s a good set of rules anyway, except for #11 often times nerds are just assholes.

More to come…

Tom Cruise in the "Self Control" rip off movie

Lord Knows who as the original masked orgy-er

Don’t believe me?

Take a look for yourself

The symbol of the poser?

You see New York is currently overrun with Johnny come-lately’s that come here trying to be part of this Hollywood created image of New York City.  At the same time the New York Yankees have been spending into oblivion as MLB has no salary restrictions or rules so that’s their prerogative.  The Yankees are also excellent marketers, they tilt the table to their advantage, then advertise themselves as the “ultimate winners.”  Now, here’s what we have these elements combining into a filthy display of posers and fakers selling you, they are part of a fictional class.  I’ll call it the “uber-NY’er”  we’ve all met them the people from the Mid West that walk around NYC being rude and giving attitude with a Mid Western twang because they’re not on the farm anymore they’re “big city boys and girls now, daddy.”

Don’t believe me?  Don’t think Hollywood has adopted the logo as a symbol of lame-i-tude?  Let’s take a little look at some big fans…

Victoria Beckham, is a big fan? Posh Spice, it's right there in the name, i could rest my case here.

Tila Tequila, she can describe the infield fly rule.

Paris Hilton is REAL, never a mindless trend follower.

Scarlett Johanssen just wants to blend in with the people.

Ashley Tisdale, I'd comment but I'm not sure who that is.

I think the reason for all of this false bravado and imagery may be the Yankees themselves, for you see as any REAL New Yorker knows the Yankees aren’t really from here, nope much like their current legions they’re transplants and that insecurity may be why they must spend more than anyone, build a bigger stadium than anyone and keep telling you about all their titles.  And we real NYers look and say, “good for you buddy.”  You see the Yankees were born in Baltimore and are the original Baltimore Orioles.

The ORIGINAL Yankees logo when they were the Baltimore Orioles.

We all know the media pushes the Red Sox as the Yankees main rival and maybe they are but who is it that the Yankees and their fans are really always taking shots at and trying to belittle?  The New York Mets is who, but why?  This town’s big enough for the two of them.  Why is because the Mets are truly New Yorkers, something the tainted Yankees know they can never be, no matter what they spend or how much they win, they’ll always just be that team that moved in.  You see The Mets’ roots are true, through and through.  They were born of native parents, the Bronx’s New York Giants and Brooklyn’s Dodgers, teams born and beloved by true New Yorkers back when that’s what New York was made of.  And like all true New Yorkers with a parent from the Bronx and one from Brooklyn the Mets settled into Queens.  Every-time the Yankees see the Mets hat they get angered because it’s mocking them and their tainted roots.  As we all know the Mets hat (thier real hat) is the Dodgers blue with the Giants NY symbol.

The formula for a Native New York baseball club.

It’s hard to explain jealousy and the motivations that then follow.  The Mets are happy with their cozy working man’s house in queens they don’t need a big tacky showy palace that’s in everyone’s face, that’s for the transplant show off’s.  New York was always a National League town and amongst REAL New Yorkers always will be, just no need for all the flamboyance and bravado, “let them do what they do in their palace, we’re having a good time in our house.”  That’s how the natives feel.

Let them have their Hollywood image…

Nick Jonas of Dallas, TX. Showing his "New York Soul" indeed.

Michael Moore of Flint, MI. The Yankees can have him gladly.

Canada's Justin Bieber. We salute you too buddy.

Hayden Christensen of Vancouver. The real Anakin Skywalker ghost from Jedi was a Dodgers fan.

John Mayer of Conn. Dictionary definition of Poser wanna-be douche.

Chance Crawford of Lubbock, TX. Gossip Girl and Yankee hats, Tre Trendy.

Here’s some more fun ones…

Hayden Planetarium. She's doing it with a littlevariation. Yeah you go for it girl. WTF? Next please

Puffy with a what's what of trendy 101, Yankee hat, Obama shirt & cardigan. You go Sean John.

Trendy Hollywood

Ben Affleck isn't he like the poster child for Boston? Maybe there is a context for this pic? Who knows but 1,000 words, ya' dig

Kelly Bensimon the craziest b@tch on all of reality TV. If you know who she is I need not even comment.

Jay-Z gets special tribute here because he is taking responsibility and claiming HE is the reason everyone is wearing Yankee hats.  OK buddy, sure you are.  He’s part OWNER of the NJ Nets but no-one wears Nets hats including HIM.  That’s like if I start wearing Ray-Ban’s and take credit when I see other people in ‘em.  Come back to us Jay.

The Al Gore of Yankee hats, Jay-Z wants all the credit. (see above)

How’d I find all these pictures?  5 seconds on Google.  Celebs love to be trendy and love you to see them doing it.  I looked long and hard for Mets themed celebs, the pickins’ were slim outside of 1st pitches at the game, because real NY’ers don’t need to advertise they just do what they do.

Jon Stewart, NYC, NY.

Kevin James- LI, NY.

Chris Rock - Bklyn, NY

Jerry Seinfeld LI, NY

Matt Dillon - New Rochelle, NY

Viggo Mortensen - NYC, NY. Couldn't find a picture of him in a Mets item, but i read he is a huge fan and wore a David Wright t-shirt to an interview and Viggo is awesome she he's the pic exception.

OK, well what have we learned?  We have learned thanks to the media and the Hollywood machine combined with MLB’s no rules spending creiteria we have a little perfect storm.  With all of that in mind i made a little animation.  Give it a watch and maybe you’ll get a smile or two.  If not, oh well maybe next time.

Excelsior

* Special Note:  This isn’t really a bash of the Steinbrenner family, I have met Hal more than once and he’s always a true gentleman and I find him to be a truly fine human being (never met our star of the video Hank though, ha).  It’s more of an indictment of the competitive balance of MLB.  It’s just no fun this way.

Bethanny Frankel Bravo's #1 Self-Promoter

Anyway, basically what they showed on TV was her bragging in a cutaway about how much she loves public speaking and how she’s in her element.  Then she proceeded to assume the podium tell everyone she’s nervous about “teaching” wanted to serve alcohol to relax everyone and the mood and then asked who came to sleep with her?

MY version of her "teaching" , Look BELOW

Talked about who she sleeps with and why.  And offered advice about diet that included people having more sex.  Then proceeded to label people as gay and further advised a man to freeze leftover from a large meal and potion them.  YES!  That’s what she is being paid to tell people.

Bethenny likes to talk about sex

Although i suppose on a show where Playboy MAGAZINE is called one of the most “famous books in the world” I should see this moment as enlightened.

So I whipped something up quick.

I have been away a while but I have returned because I am finally making some progress with the animations I wanted to accompany this stuff.  So without further ado let me get to my topic.  Look I’m not pining away for classic Bravo to return with Opera and Kabuki theater but making it Andy Cohen TV is a little much.  Granted I used to enjoy the Twin Peaks reruns every night and the fact that Bravo never had commercials.  But, OK time moves on and I move with it.

Bravo is now all about obnoxious people.  Whether they be in real estate, PR, Fashion, hairdressing, high school or a “simple” housewife.

I speak of course about the Housewives of New York, Atlanta, New Jersey (yuck), and of course Orange County the one that started it all.  I must admit these shows for me a guilty pleasure, but the OC one which just ended has lost it’s luster.  The show used to center around 5 people that were all connected in some way, Jeanna lived next door to Vicki, they both knew Kimberly, Laurie worked with Vicki and Slade knew Jeanna and by proxy she knew Jo.

There ya go.  And every year they’d fight have nonsense and then move on to the reunion where they’d have to defend what they did when it was shown to them and every year people would watch that show and think to themselves.  “Man who is this idiot and why are they letting him host this?  He can’t even ask a follow up question.  What a tool.”

From my Watch What Happens Live parody; Watch it BELOW

We have since come to learn that host Andy Cohen was a Bravo executive and decided to put himself on that show.  All one would need to do is consult a message board for 3 minutes to see that was not such a bright decision.  But what happens instead?  Well of course power corrupts so Andy decided he needed a weekly live show to follow his produced shows because he needs ever more expose.  So he can sit there like the dirt poor man’s Dean Martin with the drink but none of the humor or charm.  He has Housewives on to discuss the show that just aired and takes calls from well wishers.  But he is clueless, has no idea how to highlight a  guest and gets visibly annoyed when a guest upstages him.  All the while scoffing down drinks hitting on male guests, making sure we all know he’s Jewish and gay, and doing goofy bits that don’t have any point and the housewife de jour usually doesn’t even understand how to play.

Having said that I must sum up this past season on the OC housewives, as simply kind of awkward.  Its lost its charm, they don’t know each other nor do they have real lives outside of the show and what they can get from it.  Let’s take a look:

Vicki:  She’s the worst of the bunch, she’s the only original cast member left and feels that entitles her to some sort of odd cell block respect and bowing down.  She’s also a serious Narcissist.  Everything she does and says is right and whatever anyone says around her that’s not praising her no matter what the topic is “insulting” to her and she will let you know, cry and storm off.  It must be about her 100% of the time, it must be flattering and she feels no need to reciprocate.  Usually, she’s just looking to hammer someone and feel superior in the way she feels she of course is.  She frightens me, narcissists are SCARY.  I have a relative that’s one so when i see her I just want to RUN AWAY and HIDE!

Vicki Gunvalson

Lynne:  Last year was Lynne’s first and she was a lil slow on the uptick but seemed harmless enough.  Well, this year we were shown eviction #3 and her two daughters one worse than the other.  Although I suppose if I had to deal with Alexa every day I’d probably wanna mentally check out too.  She also hocking chachki cuffs left and right.  Whatever.

Buy a Curtain Cuff, Alexa needs a car!

Tamra:  Came on the show clearly to start a new life.  She’s was feeling her way around and now this year set up her stringent husband.  By the time she was done with him you’d have thought he was Joel Rifkin.  She’s now a “free bitch” and waited about 3 whole weeks after becoming separated from her husband of 1o years Simon Barney to hook up with their mutual friend Eddie Judge.  She now claims to be in love, is having her Simon tatoo removed and has never been happier.  Not bad spend a decade married to someone have 3 kids and get over it inside of a month and already be in love again.  Only when reality TV becomes your reality I suppose.  Scary little girl.

Tamra Barney and her new man Eddie Judge

Gretchen:  The younger woman whose cancer stricken fiance died last year was back this year with Slade Smiley formerly Jo’s significant other since season one.  His spinoff show with Jo didn’t go anywhere and I guess they ran their Bravo course so he found his way back onto the show via Gretchen.  He was less annoying than he used to be, and I dunno I just don’t hate him like so many others do.  He seems to have been humbled some since early on.  But Gretchen is singing and buying music publishing now, so who the hell knows.  Gretchen stood up to Queen Vicki during the reunion in a  logical and concise way so that was good at least.

Thanks for the bike, the 1.5 mil & the woman bro!

Alexis & Jim:  Two poser Christians, he has a conviction for selling fake sports autographs and she’s a former Maxim hometown hottie.  They found each other, found “god” then stalked the OC – bought a car from Simon, a house from Jeanna (original cast member left this year) and went to Gretchen’s Gym.  All roads for them in their attempt to find their true god Andy Cohen, well mission accomplished.  They really bring nothing to the table other than boredom but Alexis does hate Vicki so she gets so likability there.

Alexis, Jim and one of his "great shirts"

That’s my take on that show, now its the time of the years for NY and the Countless, awesome fashion plate Simon and the other yentas’.

Here’s an animation for you all to check out, it’s my FIRST full sketch, give it a watch and see what you think, “watch what happens live” with the self entitled host and his band of Bravo biatches.  Stick with it as it has, Vicki, Akio Toyoda, Bethany Frankel, callers and even singing and dancing.  KEEP CHECKING MORE WILL FOLLOW ON ANY NUMBER OF TOPICS!!!!!!!!!

In the meantime today is December 7, the “day that shall live in infamy.”

In this Paris Hilton, Get Rich or die tryin’ America, remember today is the anniversary of when our country was attacked and entered World War II.  Remember, there was a time when America and yes even American’s actually had pride in their nation and themselves, CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?  Remember, what happened that day, and also remember how great we used to be.

Here’s the point of this post, the Browns are 0-4 and the joke of the NFL, the NY Jets are 3-1 and a Cinderella story that gets alot of publicity and salutations. Why though? Well because of the Genius of course! First the Browns had the #5 pick in the NFL draft this past year, did they pick Mark Sanchez? Knowshon Moreno? No & no, well who did they pick? Nobody.  The genius with his “inside info.” on the Jets deals the pick to the Jets for the #17, #52 & , Kenyon Coleman, Brett Ratliff, and Abram Elam. A practice squad QB & two reserve’s then they deal #17 to Tampa for # 21 and they take Center Alex Mack and with the very next pick #22 the Vikings take Percy Harvin. So what did the “fleeced” Jets do with #5? Drafted Mark Sanchez, pumped life into the franchise and got MAJOR NFL media buzz! And jumped out to a 3-1 start.

Eric Mangini, step one of making the BROWNS better

His old players on the jets LOVE their new coach Rex Ryan, and are a free wheeling high flying aggressive team, winning games. Mangini, reigns down on his players for taking water bottles and parking in the wrong spots and revolving the Quarterbacks, and keeping it a secret from them, for “competitive advantage.” What a jackass.

As if that wasn’t bad enough what happens today? They trade former all pro WR Braylon Edwards, granted he wore out his Cleveland welcome, but a BIG part of why he is imploding and fighting with LeBron James’ posse etc. is because he hates the genius and wants OUT!  Yes, he is a HUGE baby that drops ALOT of passes, 100% granted.  Fine, if he had to go he had to go, so where does the potential #1 WR get traded there’s 31 choices, take a guess? You guessed it THE NY JETS!!! Hahah you can’t make this up, for #2 or 3 WR Chasi Stucky and LB Jason Trusnick, and two draft picks believed to be third- and fifth-rounders.  What if he can ressurect his career do you reaslly want it to be within the conference, to your old team that fired you, whom you’ve already given a franchise QB?

Jets get Braylon Edwards another step to make the BROWNS better

This guy is unbelievable, if getting fired from the Jets was his divorce, he has since given the “ex” a new stud to enjoy as well as a fancy car for him to drive around in. Teams have an identity on offense and win with the big 3 a QB, #1 WR & star RB. The 0-4 Browns have potentially given the NY Jets 2 out of the 3 in the last 6 months. Why you may ask? Because once again the “genius” thinks he’s Bill Bellichick, who would acquire draft picks for AGING, Eric, did you hear that listen I’ll write it again for AGING, coming up to a new contract expensive players! You idiot, not franchise QB’s and young WR’s (yes Braylon had to go, but to the Jets again?) for a batch of reserve players and low-ish draft picks.

Is that Kevin Federline? No, it's another fat idiot, this one is supposed to fix the Browns. Uh-o, how's that going? Well, the Jets are 3-1

At the very least where is your pride? With every Jet win & Cleveland loss the “genius” looks worse. I have said before it’s good for the league when Cleveland is good, great fans, good history, good playoff climate etc. But it’s 10 yrs and waiting, the shame of it is the old Browns, The Ravens are good every year.

Just fire this moron, he seems to still think he’s the Jets coach anyway.

Romeo Crennel, during "good times," they look anywhere near 10 game winners now?
