    Last nite I received an extremely distrubing phone call from my younger son. He informed us he has a life threatening disease that will require aggressive medical treatment to attempt to snuff out the disease. Now besides his family support he will need resources & I said wow if I was 17A as an example I would have given Woody 8Gs for 2 seats that I would now need to assist my son in obtain proper medical treatment.

    This is be told to U just a FYI that when U take those PSLs try to think ahead as U never know what is the just around the corner that is far, far more important then attending a NYJ game

    Very good point Champ. It definitely puts everything into perspective.

    I am going through a similar situation right now with a family member. Stay positive, keep your spirits up and fight it head on. All the best to you and your family. I'm sure everything is going to work out best case scenario for you.

    Damn Champ, that sucks. In times like this, you need to stay positive and strong. I wish you and your son the best. Let us know how everything works out after he gets the required medical treatment.

    Do not know yet but more concerning is he may not be able to work while taking the treatments

    This is just a football discussion board where everyone tends to take all things Jets far too seriously. Your son's situation puts things in perspective. I am sorry to hear about your son. I wish him and your family all the best and I sincerely hope that he overcomes his illness. Best of luck.

    People that are paying PSLs aren't using their last 8 grand to do so

    If "everyone" as U say could plop down 8K or 16K why are the NYJs offering 15 year mortgages for them?

    Champ, all my best wishes towards remediation of your son's condition. You are right, when it comes to family, Woody can take his PSL's an stuff 'em.

    I sincerely doubt that there are any "hi" end fans on this board. If there were the club seats would all be filled right?
