Left hand, meet right hand

And now, your daily dose of New York Jets comedy:

  • The Jets' newly-hired superlawyer David Boies declared yesterday that "it is unlikely that [stadium construction is] going to start in June," in time for the July IOC vote on New York's Olympic bid; Jets execs promptly issued a denial of their own attorney's remarks, saying, "We are still hopeful to start construction by July and open the [stadium] in 2009."
  • Yet another Jets attorney now claims that team president Jay Cross' reported offer to buy Giants stadium was just meant as "a joke." Apparently Cross is the kind of guy who, when he tells a joke, makes sure to include actual dollar figures for verisimilitude.
