- - Will 9-11 help the Jets this Sunday? (https://chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=123407)

Weird topic... and some really awkward replies.

I think it will only help them if the final score is 11-9 Jets.

I'm sorry if you midwestern guys dont understand, but 9/11 is not even close to a giggleing matter up here. The game sunday will be played on the grass at arrowhead and everything else will be out the door. No, 9/11 will not "pump" the jets up or have them play with any extra emotion. But shame on all of you for making it into a mockery. Shame on you.

I'm NOT trying to link the two date 9/11/01 and 9/11/05.
I just hope the media centers in the USA (NY) being one of them tries it.

Yeah it's was bad and effected everyone in America. I'm not giggling about it.

Your network guys tried it after 9/11/01, to push their teams as local games here whenever possible. Our games would get bumped for viewing. According to our local network affilates, 'orders from NY'.

I'm not mocking it. Just reminding how the 'TV network' tried to make everyone like their teams just because they were from NY.

I think that network stunt had the opposite effect to the rest of us in 'fly over' America.

BTW.Cmart28 Lets hope the Chiefs just Kick the Jets a$$ on 9/11.

Football is football for 3 hours on Sunday we can forget about the Hurricane and 9/11.

Even if it does motivate them... we will still kick some serious ass this sunday and pull of a win.

I can't believe it has been 4 years already :(

I'm glad/hope football remains that.

It very well could. I'm pretty sure that was the basis of this thread.... people's opinions on how 9/11 and the memories will affect the jets. No one is making a mockery of 9/11. Take a deep breath.

Yup, I reckon you got a point thar, pard'ner. We midwesterners shouldn't be talk'n 'bout that nashunal tragedy because New Yorkers were the only ones affected. Them there terr'rists is only after the New Yorkers. They don't blow up midwesterners 'cuz we're too simple.

I can respect that New Yorkers are still sensitive about this.

I think it's safe to say that not a single member of this board thinks the events of 9/11/01 are funny.

You can be offended by a lot of things if you try hard enough.

THIS TIME ON 9/11 ITS THE JETS CRASHING INTO ARROWHEAD.
