The Grass is Always Greener...
Introducing Just Jets: A new weekly football newsletter from Rich MacLeod.
Hey there – I’m Rich MacLeod. If you’re not familiar, I’m the co-founder of Just Mets, a daily baseball newsletter, and a lifelong Jets fan.
I’ve written about the Mets and baseball a lot throughout my adult life, but my other biggest sports passion has always been the New York Jets. In fact, one of my first sports writing gigs ever was on SB Nation’s Gang Green Nation, where I wrote about the team for a few years, hosted a live online radio show and occasionally live tweeted from their social media accounts.
It’s been a long time since I’ve written about the Jets, though. At this point, it’s probably been about 10 years. Man, that sure makes me feel old.
But that brings us to today. Allow me to introduce you to Just Jets – a weekly newsletter giving you all the info you need to know about the Jets, without any of the noise or beat writer snark.
You may be asking “Rich, why are you launching a Jets newsletter days after Aaron Rodgers tore his Achilles?” Because I’m a Jets fan and I’m a glutton for punishment. In all honesty, though, despite the crushing reality that has set in with the Rodgers injury – which I will be writing about soon – I’ve still felt more energized about my Jets fandom over this past year than I have in a very long time.
So that’s led me here, to use this new outlet to bring you all the most relevant and interesting Jets information a couple times each week, offer my honest but fair opinions, and stay away from those negative and jaded pitfalls that so many Jets fans are tired of reading from other outlets.
I’m excited for you all to join me on this journey, and as always: Let’s go Jets.
