Jets’ lonely Lombardi trophy finally has some — cautious — optimism
NY Post
We managed to get in touch in an exclusive interview with the Lombardi Trophy that sits inside the Atlantic Health Jets Training Center. He asked to be identified as Lombardi:
The Post: How was your offseason?
Lombardi: Same as most of the last 50-plus offseasons since January 12, 1969, to be honest with you.
What do you mean?
Well, as you know, I guaranteed that Broadway Joe would repeat and win Super Bowl IV, and do I really have to talk again about the Mud Bowl and the 2009-2010 AFC Championship games?
You forgot Parcells coming up short in the 1998 AFC Championship game against Elway.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
