""The New York Jets" is hardly the phrase you begin a story with if you want to inspire a reader to embrace the day with any sense of purpose, let alone joy, so you might be fooled into considering this an apology for cowboy-sneezing on your Friday. But if you've read as far as "Friday," then seeing "The New York Jets" was insufficient deterrent. At that point, you knew the job was dangerous when you took it."
"So, to the New York Jets: Thursday was a big day for them. They learned first that the boss is angry enough at his employees' opinions of their workplace that he is challenging their right to say anything about it at all. Later in the day, they lost comfortably to a team wearing the sort of all-gray uniform that belongs in a 1935 preseason game between Mudville and Boghouse Flats. The good news is that they, and therefore we, can take the weekend off."
An ESPN report revealed multiple NFL owners filed a grievance against the NFL Players Association over the union's annual rankings of working conditions at league headquarters. The grievance targets the association's report cards and reflects owner anger about public evaluations of team workplaces. Anonymous owners dismiss critics, saying only those who receive poor grades object. Woody Johnson is named among the owners involved. The New York Jets then lost comfortably to a team wearing an all-gray uniform evoking a 1935 preseason game. The sequence of events left the Jets and observers relieved to take the weekend off.
