I still think the numbers prove that Randy was the greatest receiver to ever wear the Patriots uniform.

With his short time here in NE he was definitely one of the best no doubt about that!

He's all talk

He clearly lets his players walk all over him.

This has to be the Jets' worst possible nightmare. Picked as the odd-on pre-season AFC favorite, finally playing in a place that isn't called "Giants Stadium", and they have to be reminded yet again that they're still the "other" team in NY as their two most hated rivals square off.

Its like you wrote that article Mike...


1) Rex Ryan: If Super Bowl week will be uncomfortable for Manning, it’s a full-fledged fiasco for Sexy Rexy. The Jets’ coach must wistfully watch a media circus involving not his favorite public personality (himself) but, instead, the two franchises he has openly targeted and – as of right now – failed to surpass. The Patriots, with whom the Jets have vied for AFC East supremacy (and the team they eliminated from last year’s playoffs, which triggered a whole lot of gloating), have reestablished themselves as the Team of the Century. The Giants, the object of Ryan’s competitive taunts since he took over as coach before the ’09 season, not only humbled him in a late-December victory that essentially killed the Jets’ playoff hopes, but they also improved to 5-0 in NFC championship games (Ryan is 0-2) and are the clear-cut Kings of the City. In Ryan’s 2011 book, “Play Like You Mean It,” he wrote, “I have news for you. We are the better team. We’re the big brother. People might say they are the big, bad Giants, but we are not the same old Jets. … To me, it seems clear that right now we are the better team and we are going to remain the better team for the next 10 years. Whether you like it or not, those are the facts, and that’s what’s going to happen. I know it’s going to happen because our style of football is different. We are going to take over the town whether the Giants like it or not, so those fans on the fence that like both teams are going to be Jets fans in the end. The truth is, if I am going to watch one game, I am going to see the Jets, without a doubt. We are better.” Uh, what was that you were saying, Little Bro? You’d think Ryan might have backed off after hearing taunts like “it’s time to shut up, fat boy” from Giants running back Brandon Jacobs, but the man can’t help himself. (To be clear, as a journalist, I am not complaining about this in any way.) Before the AFC championship game, Ryan, a former Baltimore defensive coordinator, went on New York’s WFAN and proclaimed, “First off, the Ravens are going to win this game.” Alas, they didn’t – and now there’s no question that Ryan is the Biggest Loser of Super Bowl XLVI, regardless of what happens in the game.

If Rex Ryan has to eat his words, will he end up a fat bastage all over again ?

Definitely. It's too bad he is weak mentally or the Pats would probably already have 4 rings.

Too bad Moss had to mouth off and get himself shown the door...
Rex Ryan is an embarassment to the Jets organization.

Well, maybe in 4 years he can have another chance to own the town, which is when the Jets play the Giants again in the regular season. The funny part is, this "rivalry" is strictly one way---it's the Jets and their fans who take it seriously. The Giants' rivals are the Eagles and Cowboys---not the Jets.

I think some players let their agents get into their heads too much. If Randy had any balls he would have played his arse off and let the play on the field do the talking.

Too many big egos in the NFL, NBA and MLB you don't see it as much in the NHL.... I wonder why????
