WR Chrebet To Retire Friday

Len Pasquarelli, ESPN.com - [Full Article]

Veteran wide receiver Wayne Chrebet, who turned great hands, persistence, toughness and guile into a standout 11-year career with the New York Jets, will officially announce his retirement on Friday afternoon. Chrebet had acknowledged earlier this spring that the 2005 season was his last and it was simply a matter of choosing a time to make his leaving official.

Ah, Chrebet Crunch..... how I miss thee.....Yeah, sad day for Jets fans.... he was a blue-collar, working class guy who busted his ### every play.

Lot more highly paid players could take a page from his book....

The "flashlight" will shine on in Jet memories for a lot longer than that "shooting star" that burned out a long time ago.

Great job - Wayne - here's to a real life Rudy!

- wasn't Rudy one of those "based on a true story" deals which means he was actually cut from the team?

Wonder if Vinny will take the hint and retire also...

They should retire together - that would be cool to see.EDIT: I forgot though if Vinny already made it official.

I'll miss him - he was a real gamer, always coming up with clutch plays, and never mucking things up for anyone else. A class act. Smell you later.... smell you later forever.
