Update Jets announce claim Herbig release GVR

[BlindsideD'Brick]

his play was bad.
he routinely missed assignments to where even laymen can see the breakdown.

but for Saleh to be gracious about putting another man's opportunity to make a living and upsetting his family's lifestyle is about being a professional "boss".

the fact that he was dumped all the "calling a spade a spade" that was needed.

lastly, taking a pot shot at the player on his way out is no way of making players you want feel better about an offer from us to play here.

Well I would expect Saleh to say the polite thing to a player on the way out. That’s his job.

But saying it’s “classless” to point out the obvious is new to me. I didn’t get in GVR’s face about it. I said it on a fan board of a small group of Jets fans. Fans routinely criticize players who suck. But I guess there’s a little more sensitivity about that here. Noted.

So Greg Van Roten, good luck to ya buddy! I hope it all works out for ya somewhere else.

No. You said this:

Herbig and yes, Feeney, are better options than GVR. He was the weak link on this o-line. He got beat like a drum. Saleh can’t be serious.

It was in response to the tweet where Saleh said they would welcome GVR back "after he pursued other opportunities". We all acknowledged GVR was not up the job. The Jets releasing Him basically announces that. No one is saying its classless for you too point out the obvious but questioning why Saleh didn't is why I said its about the Jets as an Organization showing Class. It had nothing to do with Fans saying players suck. I'm surprised that's all you got from it. I thought I laid it out quite clearly.
As for the sensitivity issue its you who seem butthurt for something you obviously misunderstood.

I didn’t misunderstand anything.

Saleh said they’d consider having him back. That’s what I was responding to when I said “he can’t be serious”. Of course he’s gonna compliment the guy when he’s let go. What’s he gonna say? “The guy was a jerk and he sucked”. A head coach is gonna say that? C’mon! It’s coach speak.

Nobody’s butt hurt. Just a little hypersensitive about criticism it seems.

Guys, the Jets are making great moves to improve the team. No need for us to argue over this. I think it is pretty well understood that the front office should handle things with professionalism, courtesy, and class, and also that on a board like this, we can be a bit more direct in our critiques.

Let's enjoy what connects us, and how we are starting to see this team enter a very exciting period for the Jets.

There’s this commercial on the tube where 2 drivers are at an intersection and both are being so safe neither wants to go . The little old lady behind one of them is frustrated because she wants to move .
That’s how I see this conversation. Nobody wants to mess up what @gmf1369 has created here but still wants to get their point across.

Maybe we should just move .

Listen, this exchange is tame compared to the stuff on Jet Nation. They eviscerate people with differing opinions over there. The goal posts barley exist in terms of community standards with them. So for the record, I’m not taking anything personally here.

All good.

I do recall from the Scout days, your skin is pretty thick. You can dish it out, but you can also take it. No need for walking on eggshells.

I'm glad we upgraded. If he comes back and is a starter I won't have any reason to watch this team because this OL will have had a catastrophic injury or 5. I personally don't care what happens to the rest of his career not because I don't like him, but because I don't give a shit. Hope that doesn't hurt his feelings. Good luck to him!

 

[MiJetFan]

I'm not arguing with anyone. Personally I don't care what happens to guys after they've left the Team(except Jamal Adams reaping what he sowed). Water under the bridge for me. I've said my peace and that's that.

The worst Jets board is JetFix.com. Politics, soccer, bad music, all mixed in. Oh a bit of Jets football.

Yeah, you notice a clique of long time posters at some forums who have free reign to rip people, make incendiary comments and then flip the script on people who react to it, etc. It’s really lame.

It’s the very worst of social media. Right up there with Twitter.

 

[MiJetFan]

Yeah I agree. Some guys you can't tell them anything. They think they're right even
when it's right out in the open they're wrong. Sad really.

it's not classless for you to say it, because you are a fan on a fan board. but if Saleh did it, it would be classless, because Saleh was his boss. i read subsequent posts after the first i commented on to you.

all good; i misunderstood you!

 

[BlindsideD'Brick]

it's not classless for you to say it, because you are a fan on a fan board. but if Saleh did it, it would be classless, because Saleh was his boss. see the difference?

I never suggested Saleh or anyone on the Jets humiliate GVR. Did I suggest that Saleh should dump on the guy? No. I don’t know where all of this came from. I stated my opinion that he sucked, and it got all spun up into “the Jets would never say such a thing! That’s classless!”

Yes I also criticized Saleh’s suggestion that GVR could be brought back. I think that ship has sailed. GVR is who he is. Why bring back bad players? How does that help the Jets? The Herbig signing provides better depth than what GVR gave us. I think an o-line guy like SE would concur.

Two different things here that seem to have been conflated.

i think so too, that's why i edited my post. check it out again!! I said:

" i read subsequent posts after the first i commented on to you.
