Alosi Suspended Indefinitely For Making Players Form "Wall"

Alosi Suspended Indefinitely For Making Players Form "Wall"

It looks like Jets coach Sal Alosi was no lone gunman. Though Alosi denied it yesterday, Sal Alosi has now admitted that he instructed inactive players to form a "wall" on the sidelines and force the Miami "gunners" around them. Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum announced the new findings and Alosi's new punishment, and says the team hasn't ruled out firing Alosi altogether. He said, "I'm very disappointed in what's happened. All options are on the table." more ›

Tripping Jets Coach Suspended Without Pay

Tripping Jets Coach Suspended Without Pay

Sal Alosi, the Jets conditioning coach who intentionally tripped Miami cornerback Nolan Carroll during Sunday's game, has now been fined $25,000 and suspended without pay for the rest of the season. He will be allowed to return the day after the season ends, but until then he is prohibited from job-related interaction with players and coaches. Alosi told reporters, "I accept responsibility for my actions and respect the team's decision." Unsurprisingly, the Jets might not want him back next season. more ›

Jets Face Dolphins In Sunday Night Showdown

Jets Face Dolphins In Sunday Night Showdown

For the first three halves this season, the Jets appeared to be a middling football team. Then they dominated the Patriots for the final 30 minutes of their game in East Rutherford, and suddenly they have their swagger back and a 1-1 record. Don't expect that to be the last shift in mood for a team that could be schizophrenic all season long. But if Mark Sanchez plays without shackles and the defense performs -- both of those things happened last week -- the team, which visits Miami on Sunday night, could be on its way to backing up its Super Bowl-or-bust talk. more ›

Week Around the -Ists

Week Around the -Ists

The Red Sox has permeated nearly every facet of Bostonist's lives. When they're not live-blogging the games, waxing poetic about the games, thanking Curt Schilling for his splendid work, or telling Dane Cook to watch his hair, they're watching certain presidential candidates hop on the Red Sox bandwagon (sorry, Gothamist). The Sox are so branded on the local brain that people are using the Series to spice up their sex lives. Speaking of spice, Bostonist is really sick of that taco promo. And, while they're proud of John Williams, Bostonist is still trying to figure out Williams' "Very Special Arrangement" of the "Star Spangled Banner." more ›

London's Calling For The Giants

London's Calling For The Giants

The Giants are fortunate that Sunday’s game will be played in London. Fortunate because the venue should help them avoid taking the week off against a team that has nothing going for it. The Dolphins are winless and last week lost their best offensive player, Ronnie Brown, for the season. Brown’s injury came two weeks after the Dolphins lost their starting quarterback for the year and to make matters worse, one of their top defensive players, Zach Thomas, was hurt in a car crash and will miss this week’s game. more ›

Late Rally Moves Jets One Step Closer to Playoffs

Late Rally Moves Jets One Step Closer to Playoffs

Mike Nugent's field goal with 10 seconds remaining helped the Jets squeak by Miami, 13-10, during a rainy Christmas night in South Florida. The messy game looked like many others this season; it was defensive and sluggish. Who cares about style? With a win against Oakland on Sunday, the Jets will make the playoffs. Not too shabby for a team most thought would be dreadful. more ›

Jets Tank? First Round?

Jets Tank? First Round?

There were seven fumbles, three turnovers, six dropped passes, eight penalties and a blocked field-goal attempt in which rookie kicker Mike Nugent slipped on an imaginary banana peel. more ›

Jets Hope to Stay Hot

Jets Hope to Stay Hot

After acing last Monday night's "test" with the Miami Dolphins, one can only assume that the Jets will aim to look better than they did a few weeks ago, against these same Bills. But that was long ago, when liberals weren't an endangered species. more ›

Jets Elect For Landslide Victory

Jets Elect For Landslide Victory

It was a great sign for Jets fans, but (unlike the Redskins) it probably had absolutely no bearing whatsoever on the pending election - other than making several thousand New Yorkers stay up a bit late. more ›

Jets Try for Monday Night Special

Jets Try for Monday Night Special

Although Vinny Testaverde will not be present, Gothamist can't help but think of the last time these two teams met in East Rutherford on a Monday night. more ›

Do Rag Done Him In

Do Rag Done Him In

Beloved fashion accessory becomes city evidence, as DNA taken from a suspect matches hair found in a do-rag left at a 2002 murder scene. Sixteen year-old DeJuan Brown apparently shot a correction officer and an innocent bystander outside a liquor store in Bedford-Stuyvesant, and left the gun and his do-rag at the scene. more ›
