Dolphins bite back at Rex

June 5, 2009

It's only June, and we're already gathering bulletin-board material for the upcoming season, thanks to Rex Ryan. As you know, Ryan isn't shy about expressing his opinions. His latest headline-making quote came Wednesday in a radio interview, when he said, "I didn't come to New York to kiss Bill Belichick's rings."

Well, that quote, along with a lot of other Ryan quotes, have made it down to South Florida. Earlier today, speaking at a team function, Dolphins LB Channing Crowder had this to say about Ryan's "swagger-licious" attitude (a Bart Scott description).

"Oh, he's going crazy," Crowder told Ethan Skolnick of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. "He's going absolutely nuts. I know it's his first chance to be a head coach, and I know he's excited about life. But, like I said, I've never played a football game in June in my whole life. So congratulations to him. He's the OTA, the OTA Super Bowl winner."

Good stuff. Juicy stuff. The AFC East won't be boring this season, not with D. Rex in New York, Tom Brady back in New England, T.O. in Buffalo and Chad & Co. in Miami, defending their division title.

Without getting into Ryan and his bravado, what the **** has Channing Crowder ever accomplished, aside from looking like an uneducated nitwit when he was shocked to find out that they spoke English in London?

That was a joke. Channing is actually a very smart dude.

Maybe it's just me, but dudes with the name Channing just sound silly if they talk trash. Channing Crowder, Channing Frye, Chad Channing, Channing Tatum...it just doesn't work.

When I hear the name Channing, this is what I think of:

I think she's a wee bit scarier than this Crowder character, too.

And let's not forget that Channing Crowder didn't know people in England spoke English.

He said such in an interview when the Fins were going to play in London.

dang, beat me to it. He later claimed it was a joke. I think the quote was, upon hearing they were going to England, "will we need translators ?"

He's a douche, but not entirely wrong. If Rex doesn't win here, and quick, he will be remembered as a loud-mouthed buffoon--a dime-store Jerry Glanville.

That is not necesscary true. Rex has been like that his entire career of coaching. He got it from his dad, and I think that's how he will be if he was coaching the Lions.

Wont he still get ripped for making all these promises and not delivering?

He'll get ripped either way, so it doesn't matter.

Also, talk is cheap, but everyone talks.

Remember when Tom Brady scoffed at the Giants' claim that they would keep the almighty Pats offense under 17 points in the SB?

He'll get ripped a lot quicker though. It's like Mangini and that stupid Mangenuis moniker, people couldn't wait to rip him after building him up way too high..

Mangini certainly wasn't the type to make any promises and they are not exactly erecting statues in his honor now for having set low expectations.

Bulletin board material is for pussies. Rex wants teams to be scared of the D. Teams will be thinking about it. Whether it works or not, just be yourself. Rex is a loudmouth blowhard, he'll win or lose as a loudmouth blowhard. Fine with me.

You got it, bro. Achillies told Hector how bad he was going to kick his a$$ before he kicked his a$$. Nothing wrong with that. ;)

Perhaps, but like Rex said, he doesn't believe in underselling. He's not "daring to dream" of mediocrity.

I think Little Rex is just taking cues from the fanbase. Jets fans have been at this routine for at least the last 10 years or so. It's the same thing every year.

March - August: This is the Jets fan's favorite time of year. He gets to declare his team's greatness and explain why they're the best team in the division.

September-February: These are the months when the games are played and coincidentally the time of year when the Jets fan is most miserable.

Then March comes along, the team fires their coach and replaces yet another QB and the Jets fan gets another six months to crow how great they're going to be.
