I would have to say, in this specific instance, props should be given to Victor and the gang for taking the high road.

Thanks,

Tom

I agree Bison!....Hopefully the promises that keeta put on their website are going to be actions, and not just words because they do bring some great material into the hobby

I don't know all the details, just what the articles tell us, but I look at it more as an indication of how pathetic the Jets organization currently is. Were the Jets sometimes/often bad and flawed under Leon Hess as owner? Absolutely they were but Hess did take care of his own (i.e. Dennis Byrd). How this situation could come to this without the NY Jets knowing and stepping up to help a star member of their only championship team, a team the organization has rode on their laurels for 4+ decades, is embarrassing. Thank goodness for the Freedom House and their caring staff/employees who were determined to give back to someone who gave to them. While AMI thankfully did the right thing what were the options? Risk not ending and getting horrible press? The good part is Mr. Grantham got back something he cherished and earned, and from what it appears; no thanks to the team he sweat and bled for.
