For some people this is a huge inconvenience because it's one of the few times a year they get to see extended family. So please settle down with the "balls to bail on their wives and families" comments when you're only 21.[/QUOTE]

Well put, If I was 21 without kids and such, Deep Fried Turkey in the lot. BALLS is making EVERY home game and tailgating 5+ hours in advance since the 90's, setting up a real tailgate, not just hanging by my trunk. My point as someone who has 8 PSL's and 6 Upper deck seats, is that we will not come close to filling our tix for this one and after dropping $50k this year (including PSK costs) to have this game sucks with possibly over $1000 of tix unused in our group. A additional kicker is that this is supposed to be a great thing for us fans, which is BS. I see that the delay in this official announcement supports that the Jets do not want to do anything that may turn away 2010 PSL buyers away, since the ones who can afford the PSL's may look at getting 7 games for the price of 10 for 2010 and may just wait until next year. A swing of 100 potential PSL buyers turned off because of the Tday game would cost a min. of $400,000 in PSL revenue. Think I am on to something on the delay of the announcement????????????
