I think Braylon does what he wants, let's hope he wants.

Oh, maybe I can help with that

Typically the tweet looks like this

Quote:
Rich Cimini @ISpewBull****
I'm hearing much of the same RT @GirlishMehta69: Anonymous sources say #jets beat writer @ISpewBull**** loves the cock. #lgbt #jets
A few points

the bolded name at the top shows the actual name of the tweeter
anything following an "@" is the account name of the user.
when you see "RT" it means it's a retweet (something someone else tweeted).
when you see text before RT, that's a response to the text that follows RT (think of it like a quote)
the "#" is what's called a hashtag. It's used to make your tweet show up whenever some searches for that specific hashtag. Also used by some as an extra little side comment (for example: omg, I hate this fake as Rich Cimini. #GetSkill #Realtalk)

That's pretty much the basics of it.

As we all know, if the Pats did it, it would be another shrewd move - signing a guy with obvious animosity for their division rival, taking a look on the cheap, blah blah blah

Sorry, maybe I misunderstood. So your concern with Edwards being signed, other than his knee surgeries, is that (other posters) everyone wants to anoint him as our new #1. Yeah I see how that should have figured in to the decision to sign him.

Belichick would never sign a player or work with a person who's called him an idiot. Or any other successful HC for that matter would never do such thing.

Hell, I wouldn't re-hire a guy if he's called me an idiot in front of other colleagues.

It's one thing if we were resigning a prime Curtis Martin. But Braylon has not been productive the past 2 seasons. The negative far outweighs the little positive he can bring.

lol, that's pretty hilarious. Now if we can only find out if Woody thought Braylon was talking about Rex this would come full circle.

It's just another act in the circus.

Foolish move on the part of the Jets.

I'm not expecting 2007 Braylon Edwards, but he's not a cripple-- dude's going to be a big boost to the Jets offense down the stretch.
All eight receptions?

BTW, Randy Moss found someone named Tom Brady. Wish we had a Tom Brady.

How pissed is the Jets Shop that they retailed the Edwards jerseys for $19.99 the past two years?

They'll have $100 Nike ones up in no time.

Cant imagine there is anyone left dopey enough to bite.

Betcha if they threw McElroy's Jersey in there, they'd be snapped up like hotcakes for the final home game. Half the stadium would be wearing them. But of course, this is about winning.
