My favorite Jets memory is when I got to see the Broncos for the first time in person at the Meadowlands back in 2008. That was the year Favre was a Jet and the Broncos were pretty big underdogs. It was a gloomy, windy and rainy day and Jay Cutler tore them apart for over 350 yards and 2 TDs. It's funny how Cutler always manages to have one or two games like that every season where he plays brilliant football. I was lucky to see that Jay show up for my first Bronco game.  :lol

My favorite Jets memory is January 16th, 2011, when the Jets knocked the Patriots out of the playoffs. I don’t think I moved a muscle for that whole game out of sheer stress, but when Mark Sanchez took that final knee, I felt something I had never felt before as a Jets fan: pure elation. Sure that would be spoiled 7 days later as I felt my greatest heartbreak as a Jets fan, but that game in Foxborough will stay with me forever.

The Kansas City Chiefs
League Championships 1 (1969)

Up next are the Chiefs...a team that I've been hoping would be able to break up the recent New England/Pittsburgh dominance of the AFC. They have looked amazing at times, and terrible at times. Now Coach Reid is turning his young QB loose and seeing what he can do.

My Mount Rushmore would be Lamar Hunt, Len Dawson, Tony Gonzalez and Derrick Thomas


Love the uniforms and think that the helmet might be the best in the league.

I agree on the Mt. Rushmore, but swap out Willie Lanier for Lamar Hunt (players only for me).

Most memorable game probably has to be Super Bowl 4 -- the last game before the merger and cemented the AFL's status as a truly competitive league worthy of merging with the NFL.  It's also a game that lives on in NFL Films footage by virtue of Hank Stram being miked up.  Beyond that, most of the memorable Chiefs games are (semi-)recent playoff failures:  the 1/4/98 divisional round loss to the Broncos that led to the Broncos first Super Bowl win, the 1/6/07 wild card game loss to the Colts, and the wild card game loss to Houston this past season.

Yeah, I forgot to put my memorable games, but that Wild Card game against the Colts definitely tops the list for games I watched live. It's two regular season wins over New England stand out as well, the game that preceded "We're on to Cincinnati" and opening night last year. Of course New England went on to the Super Bowl in both instances, something Kansas City hasn't done in decades.

Mt. Rushmore will be hard.

Lenny D.; Derrick Thomas; Priest Holmes; Tony Gonzalez... but Jan Stenerud, Willie Lanier, Buck Buchanan, Willie Roaf and Larry Johnson all deserve mention.

I'm saving Joe Montana for SF, and Marcus Allen for Oakland (though he won't make the Mt. Rushmore, I can tell you that right now).

Roaf only played for the Chiefs for a few years at the end of his career.  I would say he deserves mention with the Saints, but not the Chiefs.  Stenerud is a good one, although he's most memorable to me for kicks he missed than kicks he made.

Dude had a six year career, exceeding 1,000 yards only twice (and one of those times by only 31 yards) and never scoring more than 12 touchdowns in a season.  His best season was very good, but he's hardly a candidate for a "Mt. Rushmore" for a team with as much history as the Chiefs.

Are we really surprised anymore when players are injured they take PED's to get back on the field?

I'll be curious to find out what it was. I'm somewhat torn on PEDs. I'd just as soon see steroids banned from the game, but at this point who really understands what qualify nowadays. The stories of people taking normal supplements only to find there's some small component of a banned substance in there has made me a bit gun-shy about the way it's enforced. Thankfully, the NFL isn't the Olympics yet, but I don't want to see it heading down that path.

Also, blaming the TB Method seems like a reach. I don't pay much attention to it so you might be dead on, but it seems like if it were something Gurerro were handing out there'd be more people failing tests.

And I can't help but notice that the failed test happened shortly after the Kentucky Derby.

I would be surprised if players were allowed to take supplements from non-team trainers, just for this reason. If they are and Guererro has a hand in Edelman's suspension then a change would very definitely be in order.

Yeah...I didn't see an actual reason given.  Saying that he "wish[es] to celebrate what will be one of the most memorable days of [his] life, elsewhere" and "at a later date" simply begs the question.  The worst part of it is that he felt the need "to publicly decline [the] invitation to attend the induction ceremony."  It's one thing not to attend, but making a vague, public statement about it is nothing but attention-mongering.  Epic douchebag.

I'm already thinking ahead to the 49ers Mt. Rushmore.  I mean, I think there are probably four easy choices.  But there are so many potential legitimate runners-up that it's a shame don't make the cut, one of whom is Dwight Clark.  Anyway, I don't mean to get ahead of myself...

"... After visiting Canton earlier this year, I came to the realization that I wish to celebrate what will be one of the most memorable days of my life, elsewhere."

I think people are expected to "take one for the team." I think plenty of players would much rather throw a big-ass party of their own with friends, teammates, and family to celebrate the crowning achievement of their professional career.

If Troy Aikman had said he didn't really like the scene in Canton all that much would anybody have really had a problem with it?
