    Hello Frank, I see your a Jets fan from Long Island, were neighbors! I'm a huge Jets fan from Franklin Square. I apologize again for the rude response but I have to say I imagined you were a Pats fan from Nebraska or something, not that it makes my resoponse more acceptable its just I would think being a Jets fan and going through the whole off-season of being the laughing stock that with you having the ability to write about the Jets you would write about football knowing all of the possibilities for good things from this years team. My response from your article was just "the straw that broke the camels back" kinda thing. I thought with camp finally opening that I had seen the last of all of it and was looking forward to greener pastures. Regardless, I'm glad I came to your page and also congratulations on your accomplishments, while I did question some of your facts I never said anything about the way you wrote it. I say that cause a fan was correcting my use of your and you're and I wasn't sure if it came out as if I was trying to correct your work, believe me that wasn't the case. I hope you can accept my apology if I offended you and I look forward to more articles on all teams NY, Have a great weekend!
