04/17 — What do Kerry Rhodes, Nick Mangold, Jay Feely, Darrelle Revis, Woody Johnson, Eric Allen and I have in common?
(Cue the Final Jeopardy music.)
All of us either are or soon will be tweeting like crazy.
Rhodes, Mangold and Feely have Twitter accounts, Revis and the Jets owner are in the process of setting up theirs, and EA and I began tweeting about this morning's minicamp practice at http://twitter.com/nyjets.
I can't say what Kerry, Nick, Darrelle or Mr. J are or will be tweeting about, but I'm getting into the rhythm of sending out headlines on things that are happening with the Jets right now, and pretty much all the things that we tweet about will then find their way in story or Radar form onto newyorkjets.com.
Shameless cross-promotion? Of course. But we now have the ability to inform Jets fans of breaking news and neat stuff immediately.
I just wanted to chirp a little about it.

Looking forward to Cortland and love the chance to attend mini-camp. The Jets were very fair trying to take care of ALL their fan base. I actually might be able to attend more practices this year i hope. GO JETS!!!!"

He was the AFC's leading rusher, 14TD's, no one on the team came close. His carries tailed off at the end of the season. Someone get it done. Also, heard Mr. T contacted the Cards about Boldon. If you can sign Favre for a 1 year blunder at 12 mil, sign Boldin for 6 at 9mil! Go Jets"
