Nightmare season continues. It's an embarrassing time to be a Jets fan.

Hey, I'm with you there.

If offered the chance to trade one 30 second Fireman Ed chant for 3 minutes of non-stop PA bombardment during TV timeouts I'd do it in a heartbeat, trust me.

But we don't live in that world, so Ed's elimination will have to do. It's 5 more minutes per game I can get back for myself, will save me a fortune in Excedrin over the next 30 years.

What a mess!!!

I think when Woody Johnson became owner, this whole franchise was turned into a fing joke.....

Mark did not bring in Teblow...

He also did not sign Holmes to a ridiculous contract...

He also did not replace the players the Jets after 2010 with less-than-adequate replacements....

I thought sanchez's lowest moment would be buttgate. But this takes the cake. Sanchez is so bad, fans threatened the mascot out of his job because he wore sanchez's jersey.

Someone tell fireman ed that sanchez only started one year in college and to go look at drew brees and eli mannings third year stats.

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha.

Cool video, but why is the guy conducting the interview wearing short blue boxer shorts...wtf...

And that bothers you.

If the Jets were paying off Ed, why would they drown him out with noise, etc.?

And how is he letting down the team if he sucked so much?

I never thought anyone would care if I stopped attending games so I'm not sure why you think that statement would bother me.

The Jets are not paying off Ed, but Ed is getting paid by his mini-celebrity.

Ed is letting down the team and the fans by quitting on them mid-season. My kids have been educated enough to know better, but somewhere out there are thousands of 6 and 7 year old Jets fan children who won't understand why the team mascot walked out on the team. When they go to Islander games, Sparky The Dragon is always there, never pouts on camera, storms up the stairs, and blogs about how he's finished with the crappy product on the ice.

This could fast become the longest-running thread of this season.

Sparky The Dragon sucks. It's all about him.

I wish they would bring back NYLES.

Ed, if you should read this, when I first met you, it was as a 10 year old kid attending his first Jets game. You generously took time to take a picture with me and round up a Jets chant for me. Thank you for your dedication and for becoming a symbol of the best of a Jets fan.

It's unfortunate that the unruly, miserable types finally eliminated a force that represented decency and enthusiasm.

Thanks, that is awesome.

Oh man I gotta take that POTW back from the black dude.

Ed, thank you very much for your time and fandom. You'll be greatly missed by this Jets fan. I hope at some point you'll have a change of heart.

Rooting for this team just gets worse and worse.

Fair enough; my initial impression was you were shoveling dirt on his grave.

I'd welcome him back anytime.

Read my prior posts. I'm not a fireman ed hater. I just don't care right now. I only care about the poor product on the field.

How pathetic do you feel Woody Johnson?

Or are you more concerned with rebuilding Mitt Romney's image for 2016?

PLEASE SELL THE TEAM!!!!

I disagree wholeheartedly with his platform, but respect him and like him as a poster.

There's a lesson there for you. Try to find it along with the 12 wins you promised us all summer.

Wait, are YOU actually ridiculing rudeness?

How do you know you're even going to be alive in 30 years?

Read through the whole thread first and couldn't help but notice you doing your Policeman thing in just about every post. It's nauseating.

And I thought it was worth pointing out the irony of Sean's post responding to the same post you did. Maybe it is YOU who should delete his account.
