Well, actually, from what I understand, the city and region it is in has a
long established aerospace industry and community. "Do you know why they
are called the Jets?" I just told you. "why would he take a name just
becuase he likes it?" Well, it's not like it's unheard of. I mean, the
Bruins have black and gold colors because their original owner had
department stores around Boston that used the scheme. In all honesty, they
were like an advertisement for his store chain in a way.
@graffiti4LIF3 this is no arguing with what you replied, but in my opinion,
keeping the jets name is a no-brainer. they havent exxisted for about 15
years and still the winnipeg jets logo i more common around winnipeg than
the moose are, and they were the replacement for the jets, but only in the
AHL, not NHL. GO JETS!
@sabird1 Actually, the owner of the original Winnipeg Jets from the early
1970's was a good friend of Sonny Werblin, the New York jets owner. The man
(Ben Hatskin) was an admirer of the name and asked Sonny if he could use
it, and Sonny of course said yes. So just in case no body knew why it was
named that.
I have to say five things: 1. Who the Fuck are the winnipeg Jets? 2.There
is already a football team from New York Called the Jets. 3. Both teams
must suck. 4. Flippy cat is awesome 5. But Canada sucks ( America/Boston is
the best. Patriots will beat the New York Jets and the Bruins beat the
Cunucks!!!)
@MaverickWhig Do you know why they are called the jets? Is it for the
plane? Also why would he take a name just becuase he likes it? Wouldnt he
want to to come up with a name that had something to do with his city?
@sabird1(continued) Why did he have black and gold to begin with? Because
he liked them. What does it have to do with Boston? Nothing. He owned the
team, it was his to name.
@alienroot Im not mad about a hockey team. Ive just never heard of them
before. You are obviously mad because you are yelling at me and are
swearing at me. You mad bro?
@sabird1 1. Winnipeg Jets is an NHL Hockey Team 2. Who the fuck cares. 3. I
dont think so. 4. Agreed 5. We hapled you celebrate the 4th of July so
don't give us shit.
