Peter Tessier: Frolik, Stafford, Tlsuty & Burmi walk into a Bar Some thoughts on the games being played in regards to The Jets, Frolik, Alan Walsh and Michael Frolik.

I kept waiting for a punchline

Did you delay before you hit submit?

Frolik and Burmi are very similar in style of play. Aside from the greater experience that Frolik possesses, I think he also brings a better attitude.

No why?

For some Jets fans there are inside jokes in there that I hope are funny. If you knew what an Ezzy was you'd laugh I think. It would be like Steve Simmons only having a late night radio show and doing his own awards thing that he tweets out because the radio station doesn't want to carry it.

Tlusty said he'd be very happy to resign with Carolina as a UFA if they ever came calling... hmmm....

Loved it!

Good read.

Awesome read Peter!

Pistol Pete - how many glasses of red whilst writing that one ? ... hilarious

Yep - the job of the GM is rarely "finished" ... so much attention on our stretch to a (hopeful) playoff spot and filling the gaps created by injuries, etc ... and of this morning I'd hate to lose any of these guys to free agency without a return

However - my trust has been earned by Chevy ... I remain patient & hopeful - focusing game by game over the last 18

BTW - I learned a new term from friends of yours ... I kept asking why we don't cycle more players from the farm up to the 'peg for a "look-see" ... bring em up - have a "look-see"

"Scaffolding" ... an educational term used to describe placing students to higher levels of learning before the previous level is mastered ... keep the challenge high and achievers will rise to the challenge

Seems it only works well with players under entry-level contracts ... I like this idea - "scaffolding"
