Just found out that Hofstra will host a presidential debate next fall. That's nice. But it could be a major headache for the Jets.
For those unware of the on-campus geography here at Hofstra, just a short path and some shrubbery stand between Weeb Ewbank Hall and what Hofstra calls it's PFC. The arena, where the actual debate would be held, is about 200 yards away. That could mean logistical nightmares for the Jets when the secret service starts roping off a radius and the network fleets show up to share the parking lot. D-Rob may not be able to drive his monster truck to work that week!
During the summer, I was speaking to some folks from both Hofstra and the Jets about what was then a proposal to host the debate. Apparently the campus -- or at least the northern part of the campus, where we are -- will be in almost total lockdown for the week before the event.
Maybe that would be a good week to try out the new place in Florham Park. Then again, maybe Mangini can join in the debate. He was a Political Science major at Wesleyan.

Then again, maybe Mangini will turn a negative into a positive. He'll surely study the security measures taken by the nation's best, and use them for his Jetsies.
That way, you'll never guess which appendage of any player is injured.
