Craig and Evan were talking about famous New York athletes to come in and bring their team a championship, which had them thinking back to Mark Messier and the Rangers back in 1994.
Then, the light bulb went on above Craig’s head.
“Do you believe in numerology?” Craig said. “Think about this: the New York Rangers, they won the Cup in 1994. The previous year they won the Cup was 1940.
“The New York Jets won the Super Bowl in what year? What season is this? 54 years. They won the title in ’69.”
Evan tried to point out that if the Jets were to win the Super Bowl, it would come in 2024, not 2023, so the math wouldn’t perfectly match up, but Craig was already tumbling down the rabbit hole.
“Shut up!” Craig said. “This is the 54th year since they won the Super Bowl. The numerology matches up. Oh my God, we cracked the code! The New York Jets, it’s a lock. It’s illuminati.
“It is done. The ‘Nati have spoken.”
