Tony Dungy Calls Out Rex Ryan For Cursing

Tony Dungy told “The Dan Patrick Show” that commissioner Roger Goodell should talk to coach Ryan about his use of the F word on HBO’s Hard Knocks.  I know Rex Ryan probably wanted to say “I suggest that Tony Dungy quit being such a f*cking f*ggot, it’s football,” but people just don’t go there.  Dungy is too well respected.  It would be like picking a fight with mother Teresa.  Rex would totally eat in Gandhi’s emaciated face, but he went with this response.

“The thing is, I’ve been a big admirer of Tony Dungy, and I’m sure a lot of people are.  I felt that he unfairly judged me, and that was disappointing to me.”

I got more and more pumped up with every F-bomb that Ryan dropped, and so did his team.  Swearing is a part of Football.  It’s like fighting and hockey, lap dances and strip-clubs, or happy endings and Asian massage parlors.  They just don’t exist without one another.

Antonio Cromartie Has 8 Kids By at Least 6 Women? [video]

Antonio Cromartie spent 30-40 seconds trying to recall all of his children and their ages on this week’s episode of Hard Knocks ‘10: Training Camp with the New York Jets.

6 children into the list I began to notice that about 4 of them are 3 years old, but don’t have the same birthdays. Now, I’m no Doctor, but I’m pretty sure a chick can’t give birth twice in one year, let alone 4 times. So I asked the Google to tell me more about this peculiar situation.

According to the interweb, Antonio Cromartie has 8 children with at least 6 different mothers in at least 5 different states. (Web articles only reference 7 children, but I just heard it from Antonio’s mouth that he has 8, so I’m going with that.) Antonio’s past troubles on the field in San Diego were, by his own admission, a result of all his baby mama drama off the field.

Now Antonio is married with a newborn child, and from the footage on Hard Knocks, seems focused on taking care of at least that kid. According to the 5 paternity suits filed on him within the past 3 years, it seems as though he wasn’t too focused in the past.

Hopefully Cromartie never catches up to RB Travis Henry and his 11 children by 9 different women.

Maybe the NFL should be handing out condoms at training camp instead of investment portfolio brochures.

Woody Johnson Doesn’t Expect Darrelle Revis to Play This Season, Yes the Jets’ Owner’s Name is Woody Johnson

When asked if Jets’ star defensive back, Darrelle Revis, would likely sign a new contract by the beginning of the season, Jets’ owner Woody Johnson had about as much optimism as a crippled midget Jew living in Afghanistan with AIDS.

“The answer is no,” the Jets’ owner said tersely, adding, “My impression is no progress … no movement whatsoever.”

Revis is set to make $1 million this season as the star defensive player for the Super Bowl minded Jets. In comparison, Nnamdi Asomugha of the lowly Raiders, is set to make over $15 million and probably miss the playoffs again altogether.

Usually I hate seeing players hold out for contract negotiations, but in this case I have to be on Revis’ side since everyone knows the Jets have a propensity for failing to honor their promises to look after players “next time around”.

“Look at the Leon situation,” Revis told ESPNNewYork.com in June. “They were working on his contract, and he broke his leg and missed the season, and now he has no stability, no comfort zone, no anything.” referring to Leon Washington.

Honestly, the Jets could take the money that goes to feeding Rex Ryan, and probably pay Revis with enough money left over to sign Peyton Manning away from the Colts.

For The Record: The Jets’ owner’s name is really Woody Johnson. That’s not my way of calling him a prick.

I’m with Santonio

Yesterday, Satonio Holmes stood up for the little guy.

Santonio did what we all have wanted to do since the iPod was introduced into our traveling lives. He refused to turn off his iPod during departure. Something I do on every flight. Unlike Santonio, I just pretend my iPod is off by talking to the stewardess like I obviously wouldn’t have it on. This usually works fine. Santonio obviously prefers to make a scene, and that’s why the media is now all over the incident in Pittsburgh yesterday where Santonio had the flight crew call in the police to explain to him why he had to turn off his iPod.

In all reality, there is no reason we should have to turn off our iPods on flights anyway, short of hearing directions in case of an emergency. It would seriously take a thousand iPods to have a chance at affecting the radio antenna of a passenger plane anyway.

Next time Santonio, just pretend your iPod is off, and go about listening to Justin Beiber without the drama.

Even the Police in San Diego Suck in the Playoffs

Last Sunday, the Jets beat the Chargers, while San Diego police rounded up Jets fans in the stadium and tossed them in the clink for no apparent reason. Watch how the Chargers fans even stand up for the guy.

TheDirty.com is also reporting this in a supposed email from another fan who was arrested:

Looks like San Diego hates losing so much even the cops are sick of it.

Rex Ryan Press Conference

Rex Ryan may look like the smartest coach in football, a week after upsetting the Chargers, but he certainly is not the prettiest.

Ryan, head coach of the NY Jets, said, a week ago, that the Jets should be Super Bowl favorites, and then went out and beat the hottest team in the NFL, the San Diego Chargers, 17-14.

This week, Ryan seems a little more down to earth, saying things like “We’re just gonna be ourselves.”, when asked about how his team is handling the big stage this week. “We’re looking forward to competing against a great football team.” in Wednesday’s press conference from Indy.

No trash talk from the Jets means even the Jets know they can’t win this football game.
