    ???

    Are we talking about the football team and maybe something that happened in the NFL draft?

    Or are we talking about aviation or maybe the gang from West Side Story?

    . . . blah. I was going to try to rework the first few lines of "Maria" into "Kyle Wilson", but my muse must be on break.

    If indeed the draft talk, I'll say I'm quite happy the Browns didn't waste their first pick on a QB. Not that we don't need one. Just that another first round pick isn't going to be the miracle cure. I'm glad they agree. Lots of picks left, lets see them bulk up that O-Line.

    Kyle Wilson,
    The Jets picked a back named Kyle Wilson.
    And suddenly it seemed,
    The defense should really scream
    Kyle Wilson

    If this is about (American) football, could it please be merged with the other thread so I only have to remember to ignore one (American) football thread?

    Bingo!

    They can rush 8 players every single down now lol.

    Yeah the Jets picked up a shut down cornerback to go along with their other 2 shut down cornerbacks. That means that they can play the receivers one on one. And send the rest of the team to either pressure/sack the qb or stop the run. In any case the jets D this year should be one of the best in the history of football.

    I bet when Kyle Wilson googles himself and eventually comes across this post he will be like: WTH ?

    Now I understand! With three shot-down cornerbacks they can underscore the mid-backfield coverage and jam the receivers while modulating their sacks on the q.t., causing the backs to get the runs and simultaneously guard the high post and the moat.

    Brilliant!

    Could result in loss of down and roughing the passer . . .

    The Jets have brought Red Herring out of retirement to do the color commentary for the coming season.

    Red is best remembered for his comment in Super Bowl XIVD after William 'The Octopus' Branfield hauled in the winning touchdown on the low post with no time left. Noting that Branfield was a free agent for the coming season, Red was speculating on the size of his contract and said, "I'd sure like to be in his pants now." He corrected himself to say he meant 'shoes', but the damage was done.

    Still, it'll be great to hear ol' Red's signature line, "HE'S GOT THE BALL! HE'S RUNNING WITH IT!"

    Huh?

    I think the first bit was about noticing his signature, the other was about the capitalization comment.

    I noticed OP signature line and what I have perceived to be a evasive nature of some of OP's posts?
