    Do you also have the Manish Mehta app?

    Ohhh goodie - bull by the horns? Did Rex also say he's a real go getter?

    I hope Geno really is kicking ass because it's the best thing for the Jets but I'd take all this with a big grain of salt.

    Nope. I have apps that give me updated information on the Jets and other sports and teams. He does show his tweets on there though.

    Thanks for asking

    All the B/R app does is take all Jets articles from various sources plus tweets from beat writers and pools them together into a stream. It's basically like reading this thread and looking at the sidebar on the main page of this forum for articles. (it also throws in some articles from B/R, predictably) Nothing special.

    that toolbag Mike Florio made a living doing just that. Amazing that NBC hires him to talk football when he doesn't know a thing about the game he's just good at copy and pasting news articles!

    Florio initially became known for throwing out hundreds of juicy sports rumors, 95% of which were complete bullshit. He was the original Incarcerated Bob. He was just a blogger trying to weasel his way into the industry, and over time he actually got enough money to pay for information, and people started taking his site seriously. Now that weasel has his own national TV programming.

    I guess there's something to be said for persistence, even if it is unscrupulous in nature.

    Those guys wipe out all the time. If they don't have the mental aspect of the game down they could be superhuman and it wouldn't matter. If they are track stars in pads they'll fail most of the time.

    Hill has maybe one season left to show he deserves an NFL roster slot. Depending on the competition in camp he may not even have that. If he gets hobbled in camp he'd better hope he goes on IR because the street is the other destination if that happens.

    Apparently Chris Ivory rolled his ankle yesterday, nothing serious but he was held out of practice today.

    McDougal and Pryor both had picks today. Looked good according to reports.

    Both Geno and Vick terrible outing.

    So far ive heard Vick has been shitty and Geno hasnt been to sharp either... can anyone confirm this? If true i hope its because our secondary is just doing really good. Its hard to tell what the case mayy be when the team is so young in training camp.

    How can anyone confirm something when you don't say where you heard it? They could be conforming the same source you heard it from.

    That's the complete opposite from what I've read. Vick has been shitty, but Geno has been great, from what I'm reading.

    In fact, yesterday they interviewed MM who said that "Geno is taking the bull by the horns and running with it". He also said that at this same point last year, Geno was making many mistakes and had a lot of confusion. Apparently, it's the complete opposite this time around.

    Lol, still running with that amazing analysis of "taking the bull by the horns".

    Try to find something that actually makes some sense already.

    Excited for the progress Geno seems to be making. Hoping he takes that extra step.

    Also haven't heard much about Amaro. Wondering how he's doing

    That's why I keep saying it hahaha

    Yeah, today I read he head a terrible outing. Couple picks. One of them was off the hands of Decker from what I understand, so it may not be as bad as it sounds. Hard to tell with these reports.

    Im starting to get the hint that nobody on TGG is safe. The most simple and harmless post is always due for some smart ass, saracastic, or disrespectful remark. This is the place for me!

    Bingo.

    The fact is, you need to just take it by the horns and run with it. That's the only way to continue on this board.
