My new favorite hobby is watching Rich Eisen, Mike Greenberg, and every other Jet fan in the media just sulk in the reality that their franchise put Darnold out on the street, and the results he is having away from them.  

Speaking of Eisen :

Rich Eisen is one of the best radio/TV personalities there is. This show is one of my favorites and enjoy listening to him as often as possible.

His rant was hilarious and he is 100% right.  Sam had to go but not because he wasn't a good QB.

It was both a Financial decision and a desire for Joe Douglas to pick his own QB and restart the Rookie clock.

It worked out for Sam (thus far) and I guess for the Jets...

He and Greenberg loved Sam as a person.  I know everyone focuses on QB Darnold, but we just love the fact that he is such a fine young man.  During the Draft they were talking about his spotless and genuine character.  I know it’s of little importance here, most love the brash, strutting bravado, but I agree with his mama, she’s prouder of the man, then the football player.

“Southern California quarterback Sam Darnold backed up all of the hype about him being an exceptional leader and teammate Thursday.

Darnold rushed back to Los Angeles from his pre-draft visit Wednesday at Browns headquarters in Berea so he could throw to running back Ronald Jones during his makeup pro day at USC. Jones and wide receiver Deontay Burnett worked out because hamstring injuries prevented them from fully participating in the Trojans’ pro day last month.

Former Washington and Utah quarterback Troy Williams threw to Burnett.

USC offensive coordinator Tee Martin told the Beacon Journal/Ohio.com that Darnold surprisingly appeared on campus after Jones summoned him on short notice. Widely considered the favorite to be drafted first overall by the Browns on April 26, Darnold had already turned in an impressive throwing session March 21 during USC’s original pro day with Cleveland’s team brass in attendance, but that didn’t stop him from helping Jones.

“When you talk about what kind of guy he is, who does that when you have everything to lose and nothing to gain by doing that?” Martin, who also coaches USC’s receivers, said Thursday during a phone interview. “He had a teammate call him out of the blue. It wasn’t something that was planned.

“He gets a call yesterday, and he drops everything else. [Darnold said], ‘Yes, I’ll be there for you, man,’ and gets on an airplane, lands in L.A. this morning, comes over at like 6:30 in the morning and throws for Ronald Jones. I mean, it’s crazy. And everyone’s like, ‘What, Sam?’ No one expected him to be here, and he’s here because he said, ‘Hey, man, my teammate called. He needed me.’ So he came. That’s unbelievable.”

Jones told L.A. reporters Darnold switched his flight back from Cleveland to ensure he would be at USC on time.

“He’s always been the man,” Jones said.

Martin said he wasn’t sure why the arrangements for Darnold to participate weren’t set until the last minute, “but it’s a credit to Sam, how unselfish he is and the type of teammate he is.”
