About those digits...
Len, friends of Len, and foes of Len (assuming any exist and subscribe to this web site?)... Okay, okay, so it's not as moving as "Friends, Romans, and countrymen, lend me your ears"! (Everyone knows this is by Shakespeare, right?)
How many of you were told by your parents or other adults "there's a time and place for everything"? C'mon, folks, raise your electronic hands! Every now and then, I wonder where Rex Ryan was while adults were passing along this wisdom during his youth!
Now don't get me wrong, I LOVE Rex Ryan as our Jets' head coach. He's been a breath of fresh air (actually, he's proven he has a PULSE and above-zero respiration rate compared to other Jets head coaches...), and he has the personality and bravado our Jets need to forge ahead towards the championship team we all crave. But tweaking and flipping off Dolphins fans in a packed civic center probably isn't the right time or place. As wonderful as it is for Rex to be like one of us, the fan base, he does need to be more cognizant of his status as a public figure and as the face & mouth of our NY Jets.
I'd like to see Coach Rex continue his style as uninhibited as possible, but maybe Woody Johnson and Mike Tannenbaum could splurge a few bucks to hire an image consultant, so Rex's rough edges (i.e., his "inner Buddy") could be smoothed out for certain public appearances? You know... hire somebody to provide Rex some "home charm schooling"?
Oh, and Rex, if you're reading Len's web site, allow me to offer you advice... You could've had the national media in the palms of your hands for life if you blew kisses and doffed your hat to those trash talking idiots in Miami... then all of your fingers would've been kept together and kept you $50K richer!
