Joe McDonald shares my sentiments. I saw all the Jet fans at Shea today on TV wearing taped on #4’s. Here’s part of Joe’s take:

So, even with a good start, the Jets were bound for the land of hockey and the Nets in the competitive New York media market. And with no new major skill players coming on board for the season, it was going to be a silent season for the club, even if they improved on the four win record.

That all changed early this morning when the Jets acquired quarterback Brett Farve. Although he’s 38, the future Hall of Famer gives Gang Green instant credibility and makes Sunday a two game must see for the New York sports fan.

From ESPN:

“Then,” Favre said, “they tried to buy me off to stay retired.”

He added, “So they can say they welcome me back but, come on, the way they’ve treated me tells you the truth. They don’t want me back, so let’s move on. I don’t know where it’s headed. We’ll see.”

The tortured genious that is Metstradamus notes how much Farve mirrors Manny Ramirez.

Only the great seeyer of visions and ironies like The Great One can do this:
A Brett Farve head on a Manny Ramirez body solves all Mets ills.
