The New York Jets…A Frustrating Team With Loyal Fans
In 1960, the New York Titans became part of the American Football League. They soon changed their name to the New York Jets, and eventually became part of the NFL when the two leagues merged in 1970.
Prior to the merger, the AFC was looked at as a second rate league and was not considered pro football by most. When they started to pull good players, the NFL got nervous and negotiated a common draft with the AFC. In return for agreeing, the AFC talked the NFL into a yearly championship game that became known as the Super Bowl.
The most important championship game in NFL/AFC history came when the Jets, quarterbacked by Joe Namath, beat the Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl III. Finally, the New York Jets were becoming known as a professional team.
When Joe Namath signed with the Jets, it came as something of a shock to the NFL. He had been a likely candidate for the NFL and the fact that he chose the AFC started talks and negotiations first for the championship game and the common draft, eventually turning into a full blown merger of the two leagues.
When they were the Titans, their home games were played at the Polo Grounds in Manhattan. When they made the move to Shea Stadium, home of the Mets, the field was close to LaGuardia Airport and the sound of the planes was a constant, driving the Titans to change their name to the Jets. In 1984, the New York Jets moved across the river and into the Meadowlands where the Giants already called home. This gave them a much better field to play on and solved the problems between them and the Mets.
In 2010, the New York Jets will be moving once again but this time into their very own stadium. The New Jets Stadium is touted to be the biggest upgrade in the NFL and certainly has all the amenities. From the trains that come right to the gates, to the festivities and activities for fans of all ages, this stadium is surely going to be an amazing experience.
They have four state of the art high definition scoreboards, LED displays inside and outside of the stadium, seating for 82,500 fans with more than 9,000 club seats and four lounges. They also have more concession stands, more restrooms, and larger concourses.
The New York Jets have had a rocky history but have managed to stay in the game. There’s never a dull moment when it comes to this team and the next season is guaranteed to be just as great as the last, if not better.
