Will 9-11 help the Jets this Sunday?
Its a pretty emotional day for New Yorkers... Think it will be extra motivation for them? This is the first Sunday to fall on 9-11...
This will be the first 9-11 that I won't feel sorry for them... well just Jet fans. Im still saddened by the whole 9-11 deal... but that isnt gonna mean shit come kickoff. |

I guess it might depend on how much the stadium does pregame in regards to 9/11.
I remember the Giants game after 9/11/01, where the pregame ceremony seemed to really subdue the fans. I don't see it having that effect this year though. Personally, I think the players play just as hard regardless of the sentimental issues.

Or will it affect how the refs call the game?
Hey, just a thought. Something to ponder.

I wondered when/ how the Media was going to 9/11 this.
Next thing they'll want everyone to roll over for Jets/Giants since we all love NYC. (NOT)

I think its just plain wrong for you guys to even begin to link 9/11 to football. I have lost neighbors and family members and to this day, everytime I see 9/11 footage i ball. Football is a game, 9/11 affected millions of New Yorkers and Americans because it was the greatest tradgedy in this great nations history. 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 understand, and talking about 9/11 is not a problem to me at all. But when you have guys saying "I heard 9/11 is questionable because of a bad hamstring", I just think thats ediotic, uncalled for and insenseitive. |

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.

I don't think it will affect the game at all.
9/11 is ALREADY part of the US nostalgia. Until it happens again, people are too embroiled in their personal lives to REALLY care. |

Too be honest, I dont think it matters. Like really, football is football, and the best team is going to win anyway.
