Hey Mark, it’s Eli from next door.
What’s up?
You know how the mailman is always mixing up our deliveries? Well, I got this package and I opened it, but I didn’t realize it was for you. Sorry about that.
No problem, it happens. What’s in the package?
A really shitty performance in a must-win game to close out your stadium.
Weird. I didn’t order one of those. In fact, the UPS guy just dropped off a surprisingly dominant performance in a must-win game to close out a stadium.
Huh. You sure that wasn’t for me?
The label said “Jets” on it.
You’re sure it said “Jets”?
Positive.
Aw geez…now that I look at this package closer, yeah, it does have my name on it. I just, you know, was hoping maybe it didn’t. It seems like the kinda thing you’d get.
Well, I didn’t, so…
Like maybe the labels got mixed up at the…factory…or something…
So that’s why you waited a week to bring it by?
It’s the holidays. You know, everybody’s out of town, and parties…and stuff…I’ve just been so busy, you know?
Listen, I gotta go pack for the playoffs, so…
Playoffs, huh? Those are fun. I won a Super Bowl, you know.
That was like three years ago, right?
I still won it!
And that was awesome! But I gotta split, okay? See you at the new place, okay?

You’re still gonna help me move, right?
Coach, the Patriots didn’t put up any points at all in the second half, and they were limited to three field goals in the first half. Was that due to the Jets’ defense, or is Tom Brady still rusty?
