This has to be disheartening. Bank 33 mil and still be almost broke.




They're done. When they lost Revis you could tell it totally burst Ryan's bubble, and it showed against the 49ers.


When did Revis start playing QB? :laughing-

It isn't 200 years ago. I think there are many "real" racist terms out there for Native Americans. Also, are you seriously saying (or suggesting) that a team called the blackskins, with an African American person as a mascot, would not be considered racist? C'mon man!

N.B. This has got to be a flame.

If the Black Community call it racist, then so be it. But I do not have the right to decide what is racist for Black people, thats up to them what they deem derogatory to themselves. Just like you dont have the right to decide what is racist to Indians. The fact that your entire argument is based on "Indians are to stupid to think for themselves" means you are more racist to an Indian than someone saying redskin. What do you not understand about that? Just because you support the erasing of any and all Indian Heritage from the American record books says more about you than it does me.

Stop claiming your blatant hatred of Indians then claim that im the one who is flaming anyone. You are the one saying that Indians are so worthless that they are not allowed to think for themselves. That YOU are the one who decides what THEY are supposed to be offended by.

whats an american record book?????? You mean history book?

there's something special about this thread

NY Jets get to face the 4-0 Texans on Monday night and now they may be without Santonio Holmes for the season.

Jets might go two weeks in a row w/out scoring.

Im still trying to figure out who decided it was racist, since it wasnt the Indians. The real racist term at that time was "Injun".

200 years ago, people called you by what the color your skin looked with the word skin after it. As much as people joke about whiteskins, thats what whites were called back then. African American/Blacks were called blackskins. Indians (both native american and from India and that part of Asia) were called redskins, and hispanics as well as chinese/japanese/korean ect were called yellowskins.

One thing I have never understood. There were these people that killed Indians at will. A group of people that said beating a 5 year old Indian child to death with the stock of the shotgun was to fun to waste a bullet on them. Yet no one wants to outlaw the sports term... COWBOYS...

There were also slaves 200 years ago, but we've seemed to have moved on from that. Comparing Cowboys to Redskins is unfair, though i won't get into it because i already regret bringing up this subject. Bottom line is nobody "decides" what is racist, either it is or it isn't. Some African Americans don't think the N word is offensive, doesn't make it okay. I could guarantee you that if the teams original name was the Washington Blacks with a black man as the logo it would've been changed by now.

I'm so over this topic. I just wanted to hypothetically entertain the thought of other possible team names.

TEBOW TIME!

Seriously though, that offense is the most unthreatening thing I've ever seen. At least he poses a problem.

Sanchez is just awful. Might as well put Tebow in.

Bite your tongue! In all seriousness, a lot of this isn't Sanchez's fault but he does need to step it up. He's never been truly threatened for his job so he's been a bit complacent

Not only have they not challenged him, they rewarded him with a huge contract for sucking ass. Not only will Rex be fired at the end of this season, but Tannebum will be as well.


This situation reminds me of when the Panthers extended Jake Delhomme to a huge contract right after that 6 int playoff game against Arizona. Hurney and Tannebum should both be unemployed.
