Because Darrelle Revis’ hypothetical holdout hasn’t been dramatic enough, yesterday Jets fans (even the ones that have been calling for him to be traded because they are so sick of his contract drama) were given the scare of their life when the cornerback tweeted that he had been traded.
I missed the opportunity to screengrab the quickly deleted tweet because I was drinking enjoying the holiday with my family, but I’m told it was rather charming. According to JetsTwit, it read, “F*ck You @johngeiger_ &@schwartzfeinsod for getting me traded.”
Revis quickly explained that he was hacked (Obvi).
Revis’ representative John Geiger also clarified that Revis had been hacked, and later added that the duo also “had big news coming.”
Late last night Revis then tweeted:
Oh, Revis. You little jokester, you.
Twitter blew up with question marks and conspiracy theories over Revis’ tweet, but it seems like much ado about nothing to me. I mean, come on people.. If Revis had a new deal don’t you think Manish Mehta would be all over it? Am I right or am I right?
That didn’t stop me from creating a poll. Weigh in with your thoughts.

Loading ...Erik Manassy of JetsTwit talked about Revis’ Twitter on his podcast this morning. Give it a listen; it’s pretty funny. 
Hey Kristene just watched the Flight 5 show and just wanted to say it was good. Just wanted to say that I hope you know that Woody Johnson does now own or does he have any ties to Johnson and Johnson. Here is an excerpt from the NY Times.
Robert Wood Johnson, his great-grandfather and first namesake, had co-founded the company in 1886. Robert Wood Johnson II, by all accounts a driven and visionary businessman who was nicknamed General Johnson, built it into the world’s largest health-care company.
Woody Johnson’s father, Robert Wood Johnson III, who was called Bobby, worked for the company from 1941 to 1965, rising to president of domestic operations. At one point, he wrote to the General: “From the time I was three years old I have had but one goal – our Company. I have brought my own boys up in the same atmosphere.”
But thunder struck in 1965, when Woody Johnson was 18: His father was fired by his grandfather.
“The General stopped at nothing to take control of the company, and, like many famous men, he thought his own son was worthless,” an in-law named Nicholas Rutgers is quoted as saying in the book “Johnson v. Johnson” by Barbara Goldsmith (Knopf 1987). “He used to tell my mother: ‘Bobby is nothing. Bobby will amount to nothing.’ ”
Woody’s mother, Betty Wold Johnson, was quoted in the book as saying: “After it happened, people we’d known all our lives would turn away. I guess I don’t blame them – it was a company town, they were interested in keeping their jobs and their houses and their two-car garages. But it was hard.”
Woody, who was completing prep school at the time, then went west to attend the University of Arizona in Tucson. His family left New Jersey for Florida.
Johnson’s father died of cancer at the age of 50 in 1970. And since his grandfather, General Johnson, had died in 1968, Woody Johnson had no entree to Johnson & Johnson. After college, he returned to Florida to prove his business worth.

I don’t have a twitter account so this was the only way to pass the info on to you. Keep up the great work.
