Those New York Jets. They think of everything.<\/p>\n

\"Screen<\/a>Like hiring a sleep specialist in anticipation of their game Sunday in London. Jet lag wasn\u2019t the only basic matter receiving attention, though.<\/p>\n

The Jets, informed that toilet paper in London was terribly thin, shipped 350 rolls of America\u2019s finest ply-age across the pond<\/strong>, along with other necessities (like cereal).<\/p>\n

Ben Shpigel of the New York Times\u00a0told the BBC<\/a>\u00a0that shipping the TP, to be used in the team\u2019s hotel and at Wembley Stadium, was the brainchild of an intern.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere was an intern who had been over to London numerous times,\u201d he told the BBC. \u201cHe noticed when he was there that \u2014 and I quote \u2014 \u2018the toilet paper was very thin because their plumbing isn\u2019t as good.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

It might seem rather a rude thing to do, but Shpigel chalked it up to\u00a0the NFL\u2019s control-freak tendencies. At least one Jet was appreciative. (And feel free to make your own Cover 2 joke here.)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
