Jets Tanking Season?

The Jets went into the year knowing it wasn't going to be easy to make the playoffs. They had a tough schedule and a rough first half of the season.. but 1-5? We are now getting close to the halfway mark, so in the next game or two depending on the results we need to decide something.. Tank the season?

The Jets are currently 1-5 in the AFC East, which puts them in fourth place. They average 15.8 PPG, which is 32nd in the league. 331.5 yards a game (26th) and 92.5 rush yards a game(21st). They are at an all time low, and with Eric Decker out for the season it is definitely a possibility for them to tank the season and hope to get a better draft pick for the upcoming year when he's healthy and back on the field.

And what about Ryan Fitzpatrick? Five touchdowns and eleven interceptions? We signed him back because of his success last year, but i'd rather trade him for a bucket of balls and a gift card to Tacobell because it's atrocious how he's playing terrible and is arguably the worst starting quarterback in the league.

Even the top notch defense that the Jets are known for is struggling this year. The Jets are allowing an average of 27.3 PPG which is one of the worst in the NFL.

It seems as if everything is going downhill for the New York Jets. Instead of going for a good season and possibly going for 6 wins, why not tank the season in hope to get a better player? These are all things that the Jets need to think about and it has to be done as soon as possible before it's too late.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
