<p>Although I am not one of you, I greatly enjoyed Bob Herbert’s column on the Jets in today’s NY Times. He is one of my favorite columnists. He usually writes of serious matters, but today is an exception.</p>

<p>Fun column. As a Cowboys fan, I can relate to the feelings this season of so much potential being so wasted.</p>
<p>I was just reading Michael Wilbon’s column about how boring NYDay has become due to subpar, meaningless college football bowl games on that day and others. Could not agree more. While I loved seeing Utah beat 'Bama, it means nothing, so I can understand why some would chose not to bother watching. USC vs. Penn State was a joke. Go Horns!</p>
<p>Youdon’tsay - I didn’t see the column, but I completely agree. I am a huge college football fan and I loved New Year’s Day with football all day and night, but the fun is missing. I hate waiting a week until the championship game. Instead of building excitement, the current format is a real drain.</p>
<p>I was shocked to learn that the Jets fired coach Mangini. When I left New Jersey they were calling him Man-Genius, and now they fire him? Most football owners are idiots. The Panthers owner here in Charlotte by all accounts is a wonderful person… in need of a new heart. (literally, I am not calling him “heartless”)</p>
