i think it crossed a line. but that line was crossed by the media. when you live by the sword you die by it too... so c'est la vie really. edit: to be more clear, i don't have a problem with it in the sense of my first post... but i do think its crossing a line.
Revis will be on the oxygen tank real quick if he tries staying with Welker the whole day. They better put him on Gronk instead.
The guy is busting balls, no, it's not over the line. I'd say calling someone an asshole is closer to crossing any lines than this.
At least Welker didn't liken Revis's coverage to nipple torture, or refer to Mangold as a hairy 'blounde'.
This was a matter in Rex' personal life, between him and his wife. Did you see the press conference when the story broke? He never looked so defeated to me. He's talking about his wife for Christ sake.
you're generally fair and level headed. having said that, he's busting balls on a private matter. don't you think that stuff is best left out of hte media? i know as jets fans we have very little room to stand on in terms of the media soapbox, but that's a matter between rex and his wife. like, i think if Rex were to make some joke, or reference to Brady's child from some other chick, it would be lambasted and vilified. why the pass here? bc its in jest?
Yeah, a personal matter between Rex, his wife, that black guy that was licking his wife's feet, and a billion people on Youtube. Get a fucking grip.
one thing's for sure. welker will be asked about this tomorrow and so will rex. awesome. another round of media stuff.
I have a fuckin grip- You think Rex posted that? Please, he's not stupid enough he knows he's a public figure and has been one for many years. Just because it was online doesn't make it fair game for anyone to bust balls about. That's retarded logic.
BC it's Ryan who doesn't seem to care, except in this case he probably does. If you want to be in the public spotlight, it's not always the way you want it. And let's face it, most of us laughed. I also wonder if Welker's routine is hitting too close to home but if you want to talk trash it doesn't always go the way the want.
No, retarded logic is a grown man getting defensive because a professional football coach's wife had her poonanny shown in the internet and people are poking fun at it. Rex is a big boy, he's not the weak, shattered remnant of a man that you are trying to portray that the press conference. By the way, the FACT that no one from the Ryan camp has even made a token denial of guilt about the Youtube stuff, or the threesome advertisements on the personals sites. If this were all some big frame up, don't you think that maybe, just maybe, there would have been a denial of guilt at some point? You're making up a little fantasy in your head when someone stole into Rex Ryan's home movie box at the top of the bedroom closet in the middle of the night and made off to blackmail the guy. Guess what? All signs point to this stuff originating with Rex and his wife.
I was just playing devils advocate at first. Regardless of the circumstances, imagine if it were your wife, being talked about. Rex has never taken shots at opposing teams personal lives. BB cheating on his wife is public knowledge, would it be okay for the Jets to joke about that? Bill stole another mans wife, we just joke about that.
Definitely. Just because Rex shot himself in the foot with this PR stuff doesn't mean he has to tiptoe around during his pressers.
The fantasy I have in my head is that Rex did not post these videos. The only thing I ever read as a real option was his wife posted these without his knowing. I don't want to go back to this now though. It was a simple question on whether anyone thought it was personal. I'll try and go get a fucking grip now, apparently I'm losing mine over some feet comments. Imagine how crazy I must get after a loss. I might even ask 2 questions, could you imagine?
