Did anyone happen to watch any Monday Night Football last night? The New York Giants traveled to play the New York Jets in what was supposed to be an epic battle. Not really, it’s preseason and no one really cares. Just seeing Jets and Giants fans jawing in the stands last night was a riot. [...]

According to Gary Meyers of the New York Daily News, the New York Jets and holdout cornerback Darrelle Revis aren’t even close to coming to an agreement on a new contract.

The New York Jets are now nine days into training camp. That’s nine days without CB Darrelle Revis, who as you may have heard is holding out for more money. So, how long can he hold out? Could he possibly miss the entire season? Will he play for the Jets in 2010? “My gut feeling [...]
