    I did think it was funny that the only name other than Irvin that you never saw Cimini give was Coples. And this with Rex Ryan obviously infatuated with the guy after the workout.

    If the Jets cursed out the Seahawks I don't see how the teams then agreed to work together on a trade later in the draft? More BS from the media who has nothing. Maybe a jovial thanks for taking our guy asshole type shit you would do with your buddy

    What a needlessly inflammatory headline. The only way these shitty "reporters" will learn is if we stop reading, clicking, and responding.

    It's like this. Seattle takes Irvin, Tanny calls...

    TANNY: Hey! Nice pick ya bastidz!

    Turns into: JETS CURSE OUT SEAHAWKS CUZ DEY ARE CLASSLESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I put this through an online bullshit translator and it came back with, "Look, Seahawks fans, even the defensive guru in New York wanted Irvin - it was a good pick, honestly....."

    There were rumors on day 2 of this. But yea..honestly a non-story. Pathetic our media is succumbing to TMZ-esque reporting.

    Just another way for the media to portray the jets as a loud mouth blow-hard team

    Some seem unaware that the author of the article has no hand in writing the headline.

    Rex loved Coples. I saw the signs from the beginning.

    The media is fucking stupid.

    Two people from the Jets org called bs on that rumor. If it did happen it was probably the Jets wanted him in rd 2 or3

    Who the hell wants to draft a troubled 25 year old rookie in the first round ?

    I'll pass.

    A fabricated story. Its very obvious that Rex wanted Coples. I wish Irvin the best in Seattle, but I seriously doubt Rex was thinking about anybody other than Coples when he realized that the Big Q was dropping to him.

    I have basically given up reading any Jets coverage on ESPN NY because of
    Dick Ciminidiot. He is the most anti-Jet "jounalist" I have ever read.

    He is unable to write any article related to the Jets without a snide or snarky comment He can go shit in his hat....

    You know what, we'll find out about Coples when he plays a year or two in the NFL. Until then, nobody knows. Just like nobody knows if Andrew Luck is as good as advertised or Richardson is the next AP or RG3 will revitalize the Skins or Irvin was a reach or whether anybody drafted in the first round is any good.
