[QUOTE=how old are you.[/QUOTE]

I am old enough to remember being in my friend Lee Stone's backyard in November 1965 when his older brother tells us to come in and watch this quarterback the Jets got from Alabama. They were playing the Boston Patriots and - I looked it up just now- the Jets beat the Patriots 30-20. 43 years ago yesterday. Babe Parilli was the Boston QB and Nance and Garrett were the running backs. Interesting that the Jets were up in that game 24-3 and Boston came back to get within 27-20 before the Jets Jim Turner kicked a field goal to end it.

So I have seen it all and I sort of believe that Namath made a deal with the Devil to win SB III and we got the curse now.

I am like most old Jet fans- expect the worse but live and die with the team. I had seasons tickets for 18 years and only missed a few home games. J= E= T =S Jets Jets Jets
