From Wiki: The practice of awarding helmet stickers is often credited to Ernie Biggs, trainer at Ohio State under legendary coach Woody Hayes. But as recently shown on ESPN, the practice of awarding stickers has been credited to Jim Young, former assistant coach at Miami in 1965, two years before they were used by the Buckeyes.

From Wiki, regarding Fireman Ed:  He was not the creator of the famous chant, "J-E-T-S, Jets!, Jets!, Jets!" [8] which originally was led by two retired NYPD Jet fans - alternating from one end zone to the other end zone, in the upper deck only. [9][10] An actual New York City firefighter, Fireman Ed was injured on the job in 2007.[11] During the butt fumble game, a rout of the Jets by the New England Patriots on Thanksgiving night 2012, Anzalone left the game before halftime, saying that he will no longer lead cheers at Jet games as Fireman Ed.[12]

F the Jets.  And that tradition is lame.  And Fireman Ed "retired"....what does that even mean? 

And Buckeye stickers are cool and go way back.

And F the Jets.

I hate the stupid Buckeye (a worthless nut) stickers. So many are awarded they are meaningless.

That said, F the Jets

I hate both of these, but I went with the Jets on merit.  Every college seems to have little stupid stickers on their helmets.  I never understood that anyway.

Its not about the team, and which one you hate the most.  Its about the tradition.  You have to separate the actual thing and be objective as a voter.

Don't try to rationalize your reasoning for voting for the Jets to us. You and the other guy can turn in your fan cards on the way out the door.  Grin
