Brett Favre joins other Hall of Famers who played for the Jets, like Art Monk and Ronnie Lott.

Oh? You don’t remember their Jet tenures?

And in 20 years Favre’s Jet tenure will be as memorable as Willie Joe Namath’s Rams go-round. This is how it has always been with the Jets and so it shall ever be. Teases and moments of hope whose only apparent use is to raise Jet fans’ hopes for later dashing.

But … how glorious the view is from the summit of Mount Hope. Sure we know the scratching of pebbles only portends the avalanche of doom that will engulf this Jets team, but for a day or a week or a month the promised land seems as close as a Brett Favre throw.
