flgreen Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Antonio Cromartie nearly fought Mike Pettine in 2011, according to new Jets book Antonio Cromartie nearly came to blows with Mike Pettine two years ago, according to a new book that focuses on the 2011 Jets. (William Perlman/The Star-Ledger) er on November 13, 2013 at 10:41 AM "Collision Low Crossers," the book on the 2011 Jets written by Nicholas Dawidoff that will be on sale next week, gave the author full access to Rex Ryan's squad two years ago and got serious access -- an excerpt published in Newsday revealed he received " a security code, a desk in the scouting department, a locker, and the freedom to roam." One anecdote has leaked thus far and features Antonio Cromartie. During a 2011 practice, then-defensive coordinatorr Mike Pettine got on Cromartie's case and the cornerback replied, "Shut up" and cursed at him, according to The Daily News' Kevin Armstrong. "Pettine told him quietly, 'Don't lose your cool. We're all in this together,'" Dawidoff wrote, as Armstrong recounted. "As soon as Pettine left and the defense split into positional units, Cro said loudly that Pettine was 'a high-school coach' and declared he wasn't 'gonna take it' from him." When Dennis Thurman, who's now the Jets' defensive coordinator, told Cromartie to deal with Pettine privately, the CB responded, "If I talk to him, I'll punch him in the face." The two apparently smoothed over their conflict later. Coincidentally, Cromartie and the Jets will face the Bills this Sunday -- Pettine is Buffalo's defensive coordinator.

So, this doesn't constitute "nearly fought". It's not like the 2 of them went at each other, and had to be pulled apart before coming to blows. My interpretation of this is Pettine coached Cro, and Cro disrespected him in return, and then acted like an insubordinate dummy by talking about punching him. I say I'm going to "face punch" my clients all the time, it's an expression of being aggravated with them, I would never do it and nothing about it constitute "nearly fighting" them. In other words, this leaked excerpt is a wet fart, preceding what is most like a big diarrhea of a book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Tanny took it to heart when Rex hand-picked Sporano and proclaimed "this is the most talented roster we've had". I kind of feel bad for Tanny now, it's not like he had the wherewithal to see through that statement on his own, you know, as a general manager.
