...And It Begins

The past few weeks have been close to unbearable for Jets fans.  I mean how many times can you get excited about Mark Sanchez jogging on a treadmill?  


No worries friends, this week we are one step closer to seeing our brand spanking new and improved "Version 2.Rex Jets" take the field.  The beginning of a season to remember is finally upon us.

Tomorrow is the first day of OTA's (organized team activities) -  basically a really long way of saying "practice starts tomorrow".  For the first time this season the 2009 Jets + a ton of off-season acquisitions + a bunch of wide-eyed rookies will come together as a team to start working towards one common goal - a trip to Dallas.



OTA schedule :
May 17-18, May 20, May 24-25, May 27, June 2-3, June 8, June 10

Minicamp:  June 14-16

It's an exciting time as the team has seen many changes and additions that have left many fans full of questions.  The team is finally going to begin the process of becoming one, and we will hopefully begin to see some hints of what this team is all about.

The time is here to see if Cromartie, Holmes, Taylor, Tomlinson and Pool can pull of wearing Jets Green.

I'm looking forward to hearing more Jets news in the upcoming days.  With so much speculation on whether these off season moves were the wrong or right ones, I'm ready to see some action.   

So here's to a preseason full of health, happy contracts, no blackouts, no hold-outs, and no rookies losing their lunch   :)
