ESPN has just reported that Fireman Ed, the Jets’ most popular fan, may miss the rest of the season due to a knee injury. This begs the question, "How the fuck is this story newsworthy on a national sports news program?!"

Before commercial, viewers were told there was some sad news coming out of New York for Jets fans… So I’m thinking someone has died. Then they put a picture up of Fireman Ed, and I was pissed, because I thought he died and it just so happened that I was going to make fun of him on MiamiSportsBlog.com today (I probably would have made fun of him either way, though).

Best rest assured, everybody, Fireman Ed is okay! Come next season, his knee will be rehabbed and he’ll be back in the ballgames helping lead the Jets to victory!
