While I normally find all the constant whining about the officials and calls (especially on the game threads) either amusing or annoying... The Steelers were clearly allowed extra shots at Vick with no repercussions or penalties. I really don't blame Rex for finally having enough of it and blowing a gasket.
I have been saying this for 2 years now and yesterday proved it again. Loudmouth Rex needs to come back. Ever since the organization forced him to tone down his act, the win column has been getting toned down as well. The same thing is happening in San Francisco too. They want Harbaugh to be a company guy and tone his act down, and all of a sudden the team doesn't look so good.
What kind of logic is this?? Even if I get past the fact that Rex is still a loudmouth, windbag and Harbaugh is still a psycho control freak thus their acts aren't toned down at all - you really think theres a correlation between that and winning? You might as well say ever since Rex Ryan lost a few pounds this team has lost more games. Fat ass Rex needs to come back. It's the same stupid logic.
Heh, when I first read it, I assumed it was Dennis Leary. Then I googled it. I've been meaning to watch 25th Hour.
Been so long since I watched but I remembered the fuck you mirror scene. If I recall correctly it was not a great movie but pretty decent. Going to have to watch it again to refresh my memory. Edit: Just checked, if anyone has the Encore movie channels it is on Monday.
What?!? An NFL coach cursed at his opponent?!? That has never happened in the NFL! Oh, my! What a sad day for the NFL. Certainly the first speck of rust on it's previously virgin brand that will rot the shield that there is no way to stop.
He actually pretty clearly cursed at the head ref, I rewound it a few times to make sure where he was when he was walking into the field and the only person in that direction was the dickhead ref that put us in 2nd and 42 (or something like that) in garbage time after Vick got a no-call cheap shot from the Steelers.
He cursed at a ref?!? And he thinks he is a leader? That type of lack of respect for authority is why he is a joke and not head coach material. What other coach yells at the officials? No other coaches, that's who!
I did read in several places that Rex did indeed drop his F-bomb on the Refs. He backtracked during the PC to avoid a fine. He was pissed at Vick getting roughed up while Ben was being protected. Can't blame him for that.
Please, thank you, and positive encouragement are the Bill Belichick way. That is coaching and true leadership. Vulgarities are for buffoons. Rex is Head coaching material?...Suck my dick.
