The Quite Sensical Ravings of a Pissed Off Jets Fan

By James Ferguson, OTSL Special Contributor

After 12 days of camp the New York Jets seem to be more uncontrollable than ever.  The team resembles a soap opera cast more than a professional football team.  
With a company of characters that are more interested in winning Emmy's than football games.   

Leading the charge, Rex Ryan who can't get out of the cameras way and that appears to be contagious.  Isn't training camp about football??  Has anyone told the Jets the "Hard Knocks" cameras are in Miami this season??  It's like the focus of Jets camp is to hide the reality that most of these guys would be better off starting their acting careers than play football.  I just wonder how many two bit parts where they need a hot headed tough guy are available anyway??  

If the dust ever gets a chance to settle I think the Jets will realize their Offense is atrocious and their Defense is gonna be gassed by Week 8.  That is if Ryan doesn't run them dry with disciplinary wind sprints first.  The hope that Tim Tebow and his amazing ability to bring a locker room together was noble, but in football terminology, it was Wide Right!!.  No one man can control the angst that lives in that huddle and that includes the ring leader Rex Ryan.  How can he make a team from this?  

A team is defined as a group of people with complimentary skills that are required to complete a task together... These men are not a team.  They are a collection of individuals without a common goal.  Hopefully Ryan can fix that, otherwise he may get a chance to begin his own acting career when the season ends.
