It used to be on TV in the UK in the late 80's and I got into it then... my dad was a Bears fan... and I just picked the Jets cos I liked some NY rappers.
Ive really followed it the last 3/4 years though... but it can be hard to keep up to date in the UK, cos Football gets ZERO coverage here other than maybe a mention for the superbowl... I didnt even hear the Jets got Coles back until I saw it in this thread...!!!! thats a massive boost for the organisation though... although I still think he isnt the receiver they really need.... his speed makes him a genuine deep threat and he is a big time player, but I still think a better fit with Pennignton's strengths would be a "big" receiver.
But despite all his talent, Moss hasnt fulfilled, and Coles is definitely an upgrade. Moss was basically promoted to do Coles' job on the Jets offense and failed to... so its a very good trade for them.
