INTERVIEW WITH ESPN MAGAZING 12:40pm TOMORROW!

Anyone out there with Sirius Radio, tune in to channel 121 at 12:40pm to hear my interview with Eric who runs the ESPN Magazine show from 12-2pm!

We've been asked to come on and talk about the Curse Breaking Ceremony I'll be conducting (successfully this time) on Thursday night in Times Square outside the ESPN Zone on 42nd and Broadway.

Should be cool. I'm excited. I hear the host is a fellow Jet fan/sufferer. Hopefully if we can continue to help each other out, connecting through this Jets Curse process as a kind of Jets Outreach Program, we can shed our collective blues and radiate some positive vibes into the world and team.

I know Jet nation, myself included, are naturally optimistic. Eternally hopeful. Many are rabid and sure of a Superbowl victory THIS YEAR. (no joke) But we ALL carry that dread inside us. That when things go well - from a 3-0 start with rookie QB/Coach, to any offensive drive with the game on the line - we're EXPECTING the other shoe to drop.

THAT FEELING that we carry deep within, that we smother with excuses, stats, and face-paint, is the negative splinter in our proverbial Jet-paw. (you know what I mean)

I don't know the exact remedy, but collective positivity and feeling more NEUTRAL about such worries when they arise, putting them in check instead of letting them seep from us, may be the key.

From the tens of thousands in the stands to the millions at home across the nation, not letting those feelings permeate the quantum field could do something to help this team while they battle their own uncertainty in the heat of battle.

Crazy you say? Madness? Maybe. But doing something is better than nothing. What's crazy is sitting back year after year and enduring this endless frustration.

TAKE ACTION. Get in the game, Jet Nation. What have we got to lose?

If we try and fail, that's one thing. Know what happens if we don't try? Nuthin'.

Join us Thursday December 3rd in Times Square outside ESPN Zone on 42nd and Broadway. Wear your Jet gear. Get ready to do the J! E! T! S! cheer 3 times in a row. (the full cheer three times, as per curse-breaking instructions), then come have a drink with us and watch the game. (Bar TBD)

GO JET FANS. HELP YOUR TEAM TO VICTORY OVER BUFFALO AND PUNCH THEIR WAY INTO THE 2009 PLAYOFFS.
