okay first we MUST win our game I fully understand that----MOST of us know it will be a tough game this week. I also think the Ravens can play the Colts tough and hopefully win on Saturday. So now we can dream a little bit and hope and pray that our JETS advance to a HOME CHAMPIONSHIP GAME. If all breaks right--the stadium will be rocking next week like we have never heard it before!!! I cannot even imagine how insane it will be to be at such a game! all this said------what would would make the 70,000 in attendance even louder and more into this game than we ever could dream of ? How about if we actually do host the big game next week,,,, that Woody Johnson and company have the signs above the stadium taken down and replaced with LARGE GREEN signs that read " Welcome to Jets Stadium " ??? I think every single person that drives or gets to the stadium that day would lose their mind--I know I would---what do you guys think?
i really think that would be great but i'm positive there are some sort of legal restrictions to this and the giants would NEVER allow it
Legal issues or whatever be damned, Woody (or whoever's decision it is) would be a fucking moron not to do this.
I mean if we were to lose Sunday the GIANTS sign would be ripped down on Monday or soon thereafter---I don't care what the anouncers would call it during the broadcast---the atmosphere inside and outside the stadium would be ELECTRIC!!!
The Giants are done and dusted at that stadium. Surely even Giants fans (chime in LTS) woudn't be-grudge us this moment
That would be the sickest thing ever and Woody and the FO would be cannonized if they did this! They would have to make an announcment before the game like "WELCOME TO JETS STADIUM". The crowd would go fuckin' BALLISTIC!
Oops wrong board. lol. OK, I could swith to Jets. Key here is the two young guys holding on to the ball. Sanchez and Greene. It's hard to go game after game staying clear of that.
if this were a highschool homecoming game, me and the boys would'a already had this done! i think fireman ed has a long ladder...
I think woody should do something like what the Devil Rays did when they shortened their name to just the Rays: they made the announcers pay a certain amount of money every time they called the team the Devil Rays instead of the Rays.
If I am lucky enough to win in the Jets AFC Championship lottery and get to go to the game, it will be "Jets Stadium" for me and 80,000 others!
If there's a home AFC Championship Game, I'll be trying my damndest to get a flight and tickets. It's only 4 hours from Edmonton to NYC - what better use for credit card flight miles!
I wouldn't give a shit if you guys wanted to call it the Merkin Bowl, but it's not my call unfortunately.
This would be the sort of thing that would give everybody hope that there is still some spontaneity and passion in a professional sports world that is increasingly driven only by money and rigid adherence to petty rules. I doubt it would happen. I'd LOVE it if it did.
it would actually be funnier if someone hung a huge 'jet stadium' banner from the NEW stadium! announcers would certainly talk about that and it would 'stick' for the next 30 years.
