First of all, I would like to thank Lu Rosa for the graphic above. You can follow him on twitter: http://twitter.com/NYJPapi.
Speaking of Twitter, it is the main source for the current Jets top story:
Associated Press: QB Mark Sanchez says knee surgery went well.
Newark Star-Ledger: Sanchez tweets that surgery went well.
New York Post: Sanchez delivered the message on his twitter account.
And the cited source for the other top story is ProFootballTalk.com:
Newark Star-Ledger: The Jets will try out K Nick Folk.
New York Post: Folk will try out for both New York teams.
There's nothing wrong with citing these sources per se, but none of the articles made the slightest attempt to confirm with the team, on either story.

I just wanted to add that I think it’s great that we can get updates on players via twitter. But I think the papers reporting on this should at least confirm it. I mean, they have connections and they get paid to do this. There’s nothing on any of these articles like “the team could not be reached”, or “the team would neither confirm nor deny”.
If newspapers are simply going with twitter accounts and blogs, what good are they?
and the home of the... JETS!!!

More Woodhead... Please!!!
Would love to see more of Danny coming out of the backfield, slant plays, delayed draws, etc.. IMHO this guy can be another Chrebet, maybe better w/RB experience.
Go Danny !!!!
Adalius Thomas
He would help us put off the pass rusher search for another year, but he’s old and there seems to be a decent amount of talent there this year in the draft, so I dunno… I guess if we can get him straight up (i.e. no trades involved) it would be pretty awesome, but I wouldn’t be sad if we missed out on him.
i realized that i always check your flight connections for links, but i’ve never said thanks. so thanks for providing one place to go to find all the jet-related news and articles! it’s much appreciated!
It’s interesting to hear peoples opinions on Danny Woodhead, some think that he can be a great attribute, while others think that with Leon coming back he really doesn’t have a place. If we draft a wide receiver to play the slot, I just can’t see where he fits.
Great job as always David.

i havent really seen much of or from him. he seems to have a minor role. id like to see him utilized more in order to better gauge his abilities, but like you said, with leon back and if we end of picking up a slot man, he doesnt seem to fill any holes. i definitely liked the things i read about him when we picked him up though.
Its just a “root for the underdog” thing, IMO. I gotta say I was one of those that wanted him to make the team last year. He reminds me of Chrebet, thats what i think the thing about him is for me. Not they they play alike, but the whole undersized and cmoming from obscurity thing. But i think its time for our “Rudy” to go. He barely saw the field last year. This year there’s just no room for him.
