The most entertaining 243rd pick in NFL Draft history
Shutdown Corner —
Among the things I like about this video:
1) The Jets fans in the building, booing the random contest-winner for
absolutely no reason. "Look, it's a living, breathing person! Screw that
guy! BOOOOOO!"

absolutely frozen, before Jamie Dukes starts laughing because he knows Schefter
has nothing to say.
3) The NFL Network crew had outstanding chemistry all weekend long. Even late

Hey, Jets Fans, Boo That Man!
The Sporting Blog —
Thanks to Spencer's due diligence at the Draft over the weekend, we saw first hand that the Jets, incredibly, didn't "boo" the team's first round pick. Perhaps this was because they approved the selection of Vernon Gholston, or maybe it was because they were saving it up to "boo" this average Joe, who was busy trying to enjoy what was likely one of the highlights of his existence: Thank goodness they got that outta their systems. The greater New York area really can't afford to have a bunch of unruly Jets fans wandering around with unused boos brewing in the bellies. (H/T: Shutdown Corner )
