One of my friends was raised a Jets fan, and in his twenties, his dad sat him and his brother down and very, very sincerely apologized for it.

Brightside: If Fireman Ed isn't coming back, it sounds like Raw Hot Dog Terry is available.

I was more interested in the chanting. At first I didn't connect it to the stupid Fireman Ed J-E-T-S chant and I just assumed this was some serious Lord of the Flies shit going down in response to the Jets losing a game. "MEAT! MEEEEEAAAAAT! Blood for the blood god!"

Fast forward to fall of 2013 when I started dating my girlfriend. She's from California and couldn't know/care less about football. She finds out I am a fanatical Jets fan and hears me bitch about Mark Sanchez one day and says "Oh I know that name, who is that?" Once I inform her she says "Ohhhh that's the football…

when confronted with either dying or living as a Jets fan, they chose slowly poisoning themselves to death. That's actually a perfect metaphor for rooting for this team year after year

He's got a lot of hate to give.

Drew! Slow down! You're going to hurt yourself today.

I enjoy how even here, in official league correspondence, he emphasizes that this change is due to public pressure/outcry, rather than any true sense of moral and/or ethical obligation. This is the conduct policy change equivalent to "sorry if you were offended."

I'm actually not. And you're kind of missing the point. The point is that NO OTHER franchise counts pre-Super Bowl championships in casual conversation. Cleveland Browns fans do not throw "4 NFL championships! Scoreboard!" in the mix, even though most of those were far more recent than most of your magical 13. (Also,…

Funny, I've never heard anyone say "Hey let's go to Minnesota". You think because you have a giant mall with 10 fucking Lids a Ruby Tuesday and an Ikea the size of the Metrodome that Minnesota is some kind of Utopia? People from Minnesota think they are clever and original because they put cheese inside the hamburger,…

The problem for people who live in Minneapolis-Saint Paul is that there's a ton to do and there's more Fortune 500 companies in the area than there is in the entire states of IA, ND, SD, and WI combined. So, they get a bunch of hick Packers fans migrating there because Minnesota is actually a decent state and not some…

And yet, this still doesn't seem like as much of a scam as buying part of the Packers...

I'm incredibly torn. On the one hand, my boyfriend is a huge Packers fan, and he's currently hospitalized with some Horrible Mystery Ailment, and it's breaking my heart and I just want to make him better.

Congratulations on coming off like a butthurt little bitch.

"Despite having arguably the best GM, coaching staff, and homegrown talent in the league, Packers fans will insist they should all be fired every time we don't win the Super Bowl."

I was in Mexico with my wife 2 weeks after they beat the Steelers in that Super Bowl when we spotted a husband and wife Packer tandem by the pool. How did we know they were Packers fans you ask? Because they were both wearing the official team Super Bowl champions t-shirt while at the pool on a sunny, 90 degree day.…

Mike McCarthy's greatest advantage is that he looks like a guy who should be coaching the Packers. I bet he sweats bratwurst grease.

I want to defend my Packers but I spilled food all over my keyboard while reading this.

[Insert trite comparison to Ray Rice here]
