Glad the Geno drama seems to be over. The speeding tickets are a minor thing, hope for the next few weeks all he drives is a Smart car. Maybe the brigade can pitch in and send Geno a crow bar so he can pry his head out of his butt and lay low for the rest of the offseason.

Jets just need to get him a private driver lol Spend a little money to keep him out of his own way.

While I love that idea the fact it’s even worth considering is pretty pathetic!🤦‍♂️

We are all rooting for you.

David, at this point of the World Cup, the team of Three Lions is playing with house money.

I guess you and all of England’s fans should have the us against the world attitude because that’s basically what today’s game has turn into.

The CFIFA, the C stands for corrupt, appears to have made Messi and the Argentinians their favorite child.

Watching how Messi is treated by the officials sorts of brings back horrible memories of how Tom Brady was treated when he played.

Hopefully, the officials from this game won’t be South American because some of the calls in previous WC games of this present tournament surely haven’t passed the sniff test.

David, if there is one thing that the WC has accomplished is that a few members of the Torch and Pitchfork Brigade have become viewers of the WC especially of England’s games.

Even my good friend, Ron Alexander has shown minimal interest. Now that’s an accomplishment all by itself.

Supposedly he bought a Three Lion golf shirt to wear on the links when he plays.

As far as Geno goes, supposedly social media has found another traffic stop that he was involved in previously in Florida.

So his off season scorecard shows two traffic stops for assorted reasons of which a few are duplicated plus an “ supposed “ altercation with a member of the female gender.

Historically, quarterbacks are the face of a franchise. Geno is really not showing any smarts in his second dance with the Jets. He hasn’t exactly shown he has changed much since his first stint here. I’m sure this isn’t what Mougey and Glenn bargained for.

When he got hit by IK Enemkpali, I hate to say it, but he deserved it. He was being a total disrespectful jerk.

Based on his actions since the Jets resigned him, it appears Ik didn’t hit him hard enough because it appears he certainly hasn’t learned his lesson.

Thanks Bobber. Unfortunately it's an MLS referee tonight and obviously with Messi being such a huge pull for the MLS in terms of their marketing and income, there are some raised eyebrows about whether the man in the middle is qualified to handle a game like this. We'll certainly find out tonight but we knew it would be a questionable pick considering everything. I thought the referee last night was excellent, so hopefully we get the same standard tonight.

Hopefully Geno can just keep his head down now and work towards the season. Maybe he even needs some football as a daily distraction

With extreme pressure the referee seemed to make all the right major calls. Spain will be formidable in the final.

Good luck to the Three Lions today David !!!!!! Maybe we can get t-shirts that say " Screw the Malvinas !!!! It's the F'n Falklands !!!!!!" lololololololol.

What I don't understand is how Geno keeps going out driving without his driver's license ??? Such a tomato-head. And I wonder how much $$$$$ changed hands over that incident at his home so the investigation got quashed???? Inquiring minds and all that.

Good luck today, remember, this is the year of the Knicks, anything can happen , and this is the year of great comebacks. This will sound silly, but all this Florida drama will hurt Geno’s ability to sign with the Jets in 2027. I think there is an increased possibility that the Jets invest in a quality back up QB that could start the first four games of 2027 until the Chosen One ( sorry Robby) takes over the Jets QB position for the next decade.

Quentin Skinner signed with Buffalo, yuck , one of my favorite UDFA’s. Quentin reportedly had an undisclosed injury, was waived, cleared waivers. And the Jets placed him on IR, done for the year, okay , stashing a young WR on IR has its advantages. Then the Jets cut him off of IR, possibly because of player request, but we will never know, wish him the best in Buffalo, but this sucks

The good news could be that Quentin’s clone UDFA Malick McClain, has made a favorable impression as a WR, and could have a slight chance of making the roster as an “X” WR, sixth overall. Clueless but intrigued about the Gee Scott experiment.

Yeah you have to believe that the release was a request from Skinner, I do wonder if maybe there is some disagreement about the extent of the injury. Maybe Skinner believes that he can get back quicker and as such wanted to cut ties with the Jets, who knows. I liked Skinner, had high hopes for him, but there seems to be a guy like that join as a UDFA most years, let's hope McClain makes a statement in the pre-season.

Best of luck with your blokes today David! As a Mets/Jets fan I always root for the underdogs😂 Hopefully we have endured the last of Gino’s off field misadventures🤦‍♂️ Time to get back to talking football instead of expecting to see Gino on the next episode of “Judge Judy”😂

Break a leg, David and the 3 Lions!!! Actually, it might be better to break one of Messi's legs in the first minute of the match. Anway, all the best!

Sorry to see Skinner waived, and then sign with Buffalo. I'm rooting for McClain to be even better than Skinner and make the team.

Good news on the Geno front, and hopefully that and the driving mishaps are in the rearview mirror!

I didn't see the game and haven't heard the score, but am a little shocked that Spain beat France. I heard on the radio yesterday that they were the two teams that most people thought would be in the final, and that so far France has looked better than any other team. I heard that France was dangerous offensively, but Spain was a great defensive team and had shutout something like 5 of their 6 opponents in the World Cup. Just googled it and I see that Spain pitched another shutout yesterday vs France. That's pretty incredible! Sounds like they may be a team of destiny and set a record that may go unmatched for a long time (at least I'm assuming that it must be some kind of record to have shut out so many of their opponents in the world cup).
