New York Jets

"Siris wrote that there were two possibilities why Robertson suddenly turned cold. One was that he, like many athletes, just got too old for his game, no different than the "star pitcher who losses a little zip from his fastball or the formerly great skater who can no longer land the triple-lutz." The second was that Robertson was still a great investor, but that his style was tem- porarily not working. "While he did have a rough period, great investors do not suddenly lose their touch," he wrote. Siris called him the MichaelJordan of hedge fund managers, stating that he believed almost no one had a more disciplined style or a better record. He analogized Robertson's fall from grace to when the New York Jets were losing every game in the fall of 1999. Fans were not calling Coach Bill Parcells to be fired; the fans knew he was a great coach, they realized he was just in the middle of a losing streak.^"
