I already covered the "Trash talking" vs. "Good rivalry fun" argument. You guys want to interpret it as "trash talk" so after you win the game, you can say "Seee?? You kicked the bear!!" but that isn't what the players are saying. They are igniting a rivalry which you guys apparently see the Bills as black flies and shoo away. I don't blame you...but to say this is trash talk comes off as overly defensive. Participate and it's fun (then again, maybe we just aren't good enough for that yet...give us a couple years).To be fair, it's more like Navy saying they don't like Notre Dame.
Rex has the fans trash-talking, which is what he does, and part of the reason the new ownership hired him. He garners fan interest in the team, and gets fans (and media) believing in the team - whether or not they've actually got any realistic reason to do so.
Not that the Bills aren't good, but Rex had people believing the Jets were "contenders" the last couple of years. That's just part of his job and what he does. For an ownership that needs tickets sold, he's the right pick.
Although ask Jetfan what happens when the winning stops. (And Rex, no offense, inherited a better team in New Jersey than he did in Buffalo)
So let's enjoy the game!!!
Once again, you interpret any fan busting your chops as "trash talking" so you can take the perceived moral high ground and say "see, I told ya not to say that" when, in fact, most fans like me want to win but recognize the Patriots have a superior team. If you win, how does that change what has happened the past 13 years? If we win, great, it's our September Superbowl and you guys will peak in December. There's no trash talking going on (other than a dumb billboard which I think is pretty dumb myself).
