I am from Albany, went to college in Buffalo, but currently live in Florida. I am mving back to Albany this summer. Where do you live?
NYC (Upper West Side)
I guess that's why I can't muster up much genuine passion for the Bills-Dolphins rivalry. It's always the Jets I hate to see winning.
My favorite Jets memory: losing the AFC title game in Miami in the mud. AJ Duhe was my favorite player (remember him?).
I can still recall one of the local TV station's guys, Spencer Christian, doing a live remote from the Miami airport after the game as the Jets were boarding their flight back. Pouting, whining. He actually said "The better team didn't win today."
It was sweet.

I spent quite a bit of time up there... I was stationed in Saratoga Springs for a year back in '97-'98, and really liked it up there (except for the weather)

I know its a NYC deal here, but I am from NJ, does that count? I hate not being able to watch the fins on Sunday unless its a Sun night game or Mon night game. #34 will carry us to January baby!!!!
I live on Long Island and the best thing I ever did was get Direct TV about 3 years ago....don't have to hang out in a bar with loud jet fans.....its tough enough with all the newspapers and radio proclaiming every year that Gang Green will be Super....but it is what we must deal with....I go to training camp for the past 4 years(the wife is great about it) and try to get to at least one game a year.....nice to know there are other fin fans close

I think it was 4 years ago that I worked there for the summer. Best summer job ever! I got paid 10 an hour to serve beer, and could bet on all the races, and walk around the place for half the day. I hit an exacta on a horse named skull buster. He was a 75-1 longshot. It covered all my leisure money for the whole next semester in college.

The other big perk of the job was we would buy a keg about 3 times week from the beer tent, and charge 5 bucks a cup in the employee parking lot after the races. We would stumble home, and then hit downtown a few hours later. Oh college was grand.
