I have a $1.5M house and it's got all the NFL channels, so if I skip a game here or there I get to see them all too.

Now you're being too obvious.

Actually, the only thing I was wrong about was the length of the lease. Jets are contractually obligated to play and practice in NJ for 99 years. They aren't moving anywhere, no matter what.

@RichCimini: #Jets deny Jets Insider report that team is considering violating lease and moving to Los Angeles. Per spokesman, Jets will remain in New Jersey.

@RichCimini : #Jets deny that SAR I knows what he's talking about. Per spokesman, Jets will remain annoyed at SAR I.

By building a new stadium and by instituting PSL's, the Jets went from the fourth least profitable franchise in the NFL to the fourth most profitable one.

Translation: an 80% sold out MetLife Stadium makes more money than a 100% sold out Giants Stadium. It's the benefit of owning 50% of the stadium as opposed to renting it.

No there is no lease. The stadium is coowned by the Giants and Jets. If the Jets wanted to leave all they would have to do is sell their 50% share to the Giants. Of course that would not be an easy thing to do.

Wrong. The land the stadium sits on is owned by the state of NJ. The Jets (and Giants) signed a 99 year lease and are obligated to stay there.

I was offered free tickets this week and I turned them down. I will not do anything that supports Woody Johnson in any way shape or form. He is a disaster.

The lease is on the land. The state does not own the stadium. That is true. If the Giants buy out the Jets ownership in the stadium obviously they would take over the lease on the land.

You are right.

On StubHub, down to $49, still no takers.

My family and I go up to one game a year, at least. We buy tickets from stubhub and get a hotel room and usually have to take a Monday off work. We were going to go to the SD game in December, but we cancelled. I already put out money for Sunday Ticket and I cant justify spending any more in support of this franchise.

listing their remaining tickets on stubhub, or refusing to believe the truth being said here and pretty much everywhere else Jets talk goes.

$1.5 mill ??? Why not buy a place where it`s worth living. NJ sucks. Total waste of money.
