[@mrmanitoba]

It's like Bones didn't want to talk about that last question

[@OwlBeBack-tz1bd]

I’ve been watching a lot of “expert” analysts talk about the playoffs and it seems like the Jets should just concede and start golfing now. They don’t have the guns to get past Colorado and if they do they surely will lose to either Dallas or Vegas, and if they get lucky enough to get past them the Oilers are everybody’s pick to come out of the west. And if they pull off that miracle the Hurricanes are everyone’s favourites to win the cup! It’s actually insulting being such an underdog that everyone just thinks they should be happy with what they’ve already accomplished! Hope they are ready to eat their words , GO JETS GO!!!!!
