A new GM. A new coach. Even a new TV station. So why should the flag carriers escape the revolution washing over Jets nation?
They didn't.
If you were at the Miami game, you probably noticed – you must have noticed - a changing of the color guard that has created quite a stir at the Meadowlands. A new squad of female flag carriers relieved their male counterparts last week - and things haven't been the same since.
It's all in good fun. The new crew of female flag carriers, as well as some well-timed pyrotechnics, will make going to a Jets game even better this season.
And don't worry about their male counterparts. It's nothing personal. They are still working hard at the stadium, and it's clear they have a thing or two to teach their successors.
