Rex Ryan Versus The New York Daily News

 Rex Ryan totally looks like Walter.

First there was this article from the New York Daily News describing Rex Ryan's willingness to be fired as head coach of the New York Jets if his criteria were not met.  The usually bubbly, Mr. Feel Good, farts rays of sunshine Rex Ryan did not react well to the article (see example here).  Naturally, this turned into a tween girl fight with the New York Daily News offering their rebuttal:

"...Ryan has held some bizarre news conferences, but Friday’s performance might take the cake. Ryan spent almost the entire 20 minutes attempting to discredit a Daily News story that said he had told people he would be better off getting fired if Johnson didn’t  sign some checks to fix the offense that Ryan and GM Mike Tannenbaum helped destroy.  Of course, the Daily News stands behind the story regardless of Ryan’s denials to Johnson, to his players — the tears were flowing again in a team meeting Friday — and to the media. Did anybody expect him to publicly reveal his career game plan?"

Burn.  The Daily News continues:

"Ryan has a full complement of Jets sweatshirts, sweatpants and caps, so why would he want to leave? Where else would he rather be than at Florham Park coaching a team with a huge quarterback problem?"


Nothing like a journalist's tepid passive aggression to get you all riled up.

Note: Don't ever Google "ventriloquist dummy" in your dark office, or anywhere...ever.  I've turned on all the lights and I'm still creeped out.
