this is crummy... he's still the most talented player on the offense, but time to grow the **** up

[faba]

Yeah selfish player we have to put up with for now

[dbatesman]

Next year rather than sending him to germany we should send him on a parachute jumping class in afganistan and make damn sure hes wearing his gold chain around his neck before we kick his a$$ out of the plane

Yeah, so this happened.

[NYGiantFan10]

if jets can get a 2 for him they should take it and run

I also saw in the reports today that Holmes was coaching up the younger players. Why isn't there a thread about that?

in general im sick of people demanding that football players act a certain way. These guys aren't marrying your daughter. This isn't Mangini's team. These are grown men playing a sport for cash. It's their work. "If Santonio doesn't run until he pukes, and like it, well they can send him to the glue factory" sure thing tough guy.

Holmes is certainly not an ideal player attitude wise but he does things that none of the other WR can do, and he does em when the game is on the line. That's how it works in the NFL you put up with DIVAS at WR because you need em.

[bitonti]

this is the same as when we killed Santana Moss for running out of bounds. "If Moss don't run head on into a 300 pound defender and knock himself out of the game they should trade him! What a Pussy!"

these men are pros and the know their own limitations. If Holmes was overworked, maybe he was overworked. Keep in mind Kerley, Turner and other WR were out for injuries. Holmes is a porche he's not Matt Slauson playing through a torn labrum.

Holmes is a vet he knows when the coaches are sending him a message. This was Sparano sending a message and Holmes not appreciating.

Oh now I get it

[Jets62]

Holmes is a spoiled punk, he aint worth it anymore. If the Jets wanna change the direction of the team, he's gotta go. His act is old and he aint no Jerry Rice or Lynn Swan. Dump this a$$hole next year once and for all.

[GREENBEAN]

That didn't take long. I actually fantasized that Holmes would learn from the ridicule over his actions from last year. Hey at least she told me before we left for the date that she wasn't going to put out rather than letting me believe it all night then slamming the car door in my face.

It's better to know. I would love to see the Jets just bench him all year. Have him suit up and just never play him. Watch him get old on the Jets sideline for years. All for spite. Yes... that would make me happy.

This.

Holmes came off the field because he couldn't run with the rest of the team. He'll soon be in shape and what he does in June won't matter. Complete non-story.

This, it sounds like Holmes thought he was being sent a message from a new hard a$$ coach, and he doesn't appreciate that, he is a ego driven diva, and when utilized properly a very dangerous weapon for this team, but like any other diva aint nobody gonna send me a message do they know who the **** I am, hopefully him and Sparano or Sanjay can put this behind them and move on, because if they don't this will be a very destructive situation cause neither party will back down or be pushed around.

[GATA]

Can Tebow take all the evil out of Holmes already? I thought that's why we drafted him

[T0mShane]

The Kerry Rhodes of WRs.

Just imagine how out of control he'd be if he ever, like, made a pro bowl.

Here are some quotes from Rex on Holmes:

On how Holmes came off the field…
The thing about him is that he is a competitive guy. I guess you would have to ask him because I never saw it. I thought he was in great spirits. He told me I looked great so I felt good about that. (laughter)

On Holmes telling the coaches to take away some of his reps…
I know he was scheduled for ‘X’ amount of reps and I know he wanted to take some of those off. Any time a player tells you that, like Brandon Moore, I remember last year he finally just said, “I can’t go today.” Well Brandon, all you have to do is tell us. He knows. You lean on your guys. They know their bodies. Anytime a player has tightness or whatever, then we are not here to push you over, ‘Oh, you can do that.’ These are professional athletes. They know their bodies. Santonio knows his body better than anybody, obviously. So if he thinks he would be stretching it to give another five, 10 snaps, then you have to be smart about that and that’s really with any of those veteran players.

On Holmes sitting out…
I don’t know when he even approached the coaches on it. I just knew that he had made those comments. When I talked to him and Sanjay that he was pulling himself out of that team period, I thought it was smart. If a guy thinks he is tight or whatever it may be, we don’t want a guy pulling. He knows his body better than anybody.

[JetsFanInDenver]

But he is going to JETS west camp. So I am happy!

BTW...I know this is a noble cause but what does a WR do on a USO sponsored event. A comedian/comedienne can entertain the soldiers. A singer can perform, But what does a NFL WR do. Plus Holmes must have caused a lot of anguish to the Steelers and JETS fans amongst our soldiers.

[SenorGato]

He really is such a POS. Seriously...Its June Holmes! Be ready for WAR at all times!

Out of shape for an OTA in June....the man just doesn't get it...not like Sanchez does. He weighs Sanchez and this offense down.
