“Shut Up, Fat Boy”
Posted on January 1st, 2012 in Uncategorized | No Comments »
That’s what New York Giants Brandon Jacobs running back said last week to loud-mouthed Jets head coach Rex Ryan, who is indeed overweight and under-mature. And that is also what the Miami Dolphins just did to Ryan by beating the Jets, 19-17, and eliminating any chance they had of making the playoffs.
The Jets, whom Ryan has transformed into the most unlikeable franchise in the sport, are now officially a franchise in disarray, and it is a wonderful thing to see. The coach who annually brags that his team will win the Super Bowl will have to eat his own words. The quarterback who repeatedly underachieves continues to do so (he threw three interceptions today). The offensive coordinator will get the axe. (Maybe Ryan will too!) One of the team captains removed himself from the game with a couple minutes to play—apparently because the quarterback wouldn’t throw him the ball—and refused to watch his team’s futile attempt at a comeback.
For the Jets, this offseason is going to be hell.
How sweet it is…
Now…Go G-men!
