    The Jets Get Rid of Darrelle Revis in Order to Continue Their 40-Year Rebuilding Process

    With the Knicks and Nets winning their first playoff games and the Yankees and Mets both over .500, it would seem that New York is on the verge of a happiness explosion. But I'm bummed out. The best football player in New York, maybe the best defensive player in the league and perhaps the best secon ... More >>

    Just when you think it can't get any weirder in Gang Green land... The Jets recently cut linebacker Bart Scott (age 32), defensive end Calvin Pace (also age 32), DB Eric Smith (age 29) and OT Jason Smith (26).

    Jets and Giants: A Depressing Post-Mortem

    The Giants were the smaller disaster, so let's handle them first. They were next-to-the-last in the entire league on defense, meaning 31 out of 32 teams in yards/allowed. That's going to take so much shoring up before next season that it's hard to know where to begin. And yet, that may not be Big ... More >>
