00:00You know, and Jet fans are funny because I have to keep reminding them.
00:03The two most famous people in the history of the New York Jets are Joe Namath and Fireman Ed.
00:10Fireman Ed is a guy who hits himself in the head with a hammer every game.
00:13And I understand why, if you're a Jet fan, that you hit yourself in the head every single game
00:19because of some of the things you see out there on the field.
00:22But I thought I would never, ever hear a player ever make this comparison.
00:27Prison and playing for the Jets.
00:30So Plexico Burris was talking about playing for the New York Jets.
00:36Burris compared playing with the New York Jets to prison.
00:39And I quote, they're both kind of similar.
00:43Because when you walk into prison on my first day, I was like, damn, man, you're a real loser, blurted
00:51out.
00:52And I had the same damn thing and the same damn feeling every day that I walked, when I walked
00:59through the door, when I was there at the Jet facility.
01:03Now, I've not heard that one before.
01:05Going to prison and playing for the New York Jets is like going to Rikers Island.
01:12How you doing?
01:13Hey, Plexico, not really the messenger you're looking for to send that message out.
01:19Carrying a gun in a bar, of course, and shooting yourself in the leg.
01:22That's for another show.
01:24But, hey, it's kind of status quo for the kind of players that the New York Jets end up getting
01:29here with that program.
01:31Hey, this goes back down to the owner.
01:33When the owner runs his baseball team based off of Madden ratings, and his kid comes to him and says,
01:42we can't make a move for a guy like a Jerry Judy because, you know, Dad, he's not really ranked
01:47too high there on the Madden game.
01:50You end up X-ing out that deal.
01:53The Jets haven't made the playoffs in 15 years.
01:57No quarterback has made it in the New York area with the Jets since Joe Namath, since 1969.
02:06You had a couple spurts with Boomer, with Vinny, Chad Pennington, ended up winning some games there, and Mark Sanchez.
02:15Other than that, it's been a colossal train wreck.
02:18The guy that works with baby oil and Band-Aids, Woody Johnson, is easily the worst owner in all of
02:25pro football.
02:26This guy makes poor hires, poor business decisions, and there's no question that that is the worst-run football program,
02:35maybe in American sports.
02:38How do you look at your Jet fan base and sit there and have optimism?
02:43It's the only place in the National Football League that doesn't have the word optimism when you're ready for a
02:52regular season.
02:53The Jets' ownership is the reason they're in the position that they're in.
02:58Look, you can go down to South Florida, and you can look at Stephen Ross in the way that he
03:02runs the Miami Dolphins.
03:03You can go to Cleveland and look what Jimmy Haslam and the way he runs the Cleveland Browns.
03:09There's a reason that these organizations pick at the top of the draft every year.
03:14It's because it's because of horrible leadership.
03:19Woody Johnson, again, I mean, name me a decent coach since Parcells that that organization has had.
03:28You want to hear even more historical facts on the Jets?
03:31There's only been one coach in the history of the franchise that has a winning record, and that is Bill
03:38Parcells.
03:39Not even Weeb Eubank, who won that Super Bowl in 1969, had a winning record.
03:45The Jets have always been poorly run, and the Jets will continue to be poorly run until they get new
03:51leadership.
03:52Hey, they say it trickles down, and it trickles down all over the place when you're there with the Jets.
03:59You know, they have brought good players into that organization.
04:02They just haven't brought good football people into that organization.
04:07And I would do this.
04:09There has been one guy that has coveted a job and wanted to work with the New York Jets a
04:14couple years back.
04:15You know who that was?
04:17Howie Roseman.
04:19If I were Woody Johnson, I would go to Howie Roseman and offer him a percentage of the team to
04:28come and be the general manager slash president of the Jets.
04:32You need somebody in there, like a John Schneider, a Howie Roseman, to show you what football really is, dude.
04:41You're not going anywhere.
04:43Every single year, we hear the same stuff with Jet fans.
04:48Every year, we see the same incompetence.
04:51Eric Glenn is over his skis.
04:54He's not qualified to be an NFL head football coach.
04:59Look at the coaches that they have brought in.
05:02No autonomy and no experience.
05:05It just doesn't make sense.
05:06But it does because of the owner.
05:10They will not win as long as Woody Johnson is the owner of that football team.
05:16There's no question why they ended up taking all the power away in Johnson & Johnson.
05:21He doesn't have his hands on any of that or he'd run that company into the ground.
05:25The New York Jets, where are they going in 26?
05:29To the top five of the NFL draft again.
05:33Hey, Jet fans, get ready for your draft parties because the 26th season will be over for the part.
