01/25 — This will no doubt be a tough 10-day stretch for many Jets fans leading up to Super Bowl XLII. Perhaps to take the edge off, or at any time thereafter, you can put together some of your best Jets/Titans anecdotes and send them to a couple of fellow Green & White bleeders, who plan to put them all together in a publication.

The two Jets fans are lifelong friends Alex Parziale and George Coppola. There's a lot similar about them: They're both 35, both are originally from Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, both wear the team colors "seven days a week, 365 days a year," both frequent training camp and team message boards.

Now, Alex told me this week in an email, "We're working on an independent project regarding the Jets, the fans and basically everything that has been involved with the team. Our project is in its early stages but has seemed to be picking up steam."

Here is the boys' pitch for you Jets followers with stories to tell:

CALLING ALL NY JETS FANS!!!

On the brink of a Jets fans worst nightmare, a Giant vs. New England Patriot Super Bowl, we are embarking in a labor of love and want to hear your NY J-E-T-S stories. We are looking for the passionate, the loyal, veterans who saw Namath make the guarantee or the rookies who have been following the team since the "YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME" speech. The draft junkies, the tailgate chefs and everyone in between, you know who you are.

All of us have a story to tell and we want yours. Please submit your good, your bad & the unusual memories you have had with this team. Tell us about your passion as a NY Jets fan.

We want to make sure that the true fans stories never go away and this is our way of persevering them but it also serves as therapy for all us.

Please email all stories to our email at jetdreams@yahoo.com.

Stories chosen may be used for a future compilation to be published.

I don't know Alex and George, and the New York Jets organization is in no way involved in this project, but they sound sincere and their plans are promising. If you're so inclined, you could give them a heads-up and a tale at their email address above. Good luck, guys.

A Few More Honors

The New Jersey Sports Writers Association has a long tradition of honoring metro area athletes each year. On Sunday, at the NJSWA's 72nd annual banquet, the group will honor two Jets — Leon Washington as Most Valuable Jet and Darrelle Revis as Jets Rookie of the Year. (The awards were named by the writers, not by the team.)

The event will be held, as always, at the Pines Manor in Edison, N.J.

Cactus Radio

We're in our two-minute drill to get a "radio show" up and running from the Super Bowl for all you Website visitors and Radarheads.

We're thinking in terms of a 10- or 15-minute interview between Eric Allen, in Hempstead, N.Y., and me, in the much warmer environs of Phoenix. The subjects will be obviously whatever is happening that day involving the Patriots and Giants, plus Jets sightings and other buzz from around the SB venue. The audio interview will augment the text reports I'll be filing every day.

We're debating whether to go live with each day's show or go right to the archive, but the plan is to have a show available to you on the Multimedia Home page on newyorkjets.com every day from Tuesday through Friday. I'll have more for you on our Super Radio Webcast when I flip on the Radar after my Monday arrival in the Valley of the Sun.
