Rex Ryan is such a fucking fraud. The AP has a story out about that sasquatch giving a game ball to the Jets’ number one fan, Ed Anzalone, also known as “Fireman Ed” at the team’s practice on Friday.
You know Ed, he’s the guy who sits on his buddy’s shoulders and starts all of those stupid J-E-T-S chants, he wears the fire helmet, yada yada. Listen he’s an actual New York firefighter so I respect him for that, but that’s where the respect ends. If anything his buddy should get the game ball, that guy’s the real unsung hero here. He’s probably been holding that clown on his shoulders for years, but where’s his name in the papers?
This story of course stems from the voicemail Triple-ReXL left his season ticket holders before last weekend’s game against the Patriots, pleading with them to be loud for their team as if that wasn’t a requirement given the matchup.
He called the home field advantage a game-changer afterwards, but in reality it was just a charade to get the fans in his back pocket (until the team implodes and they turn on him). That game was no louder than any other Jets/Pats game; at no point did the CBS commentators say “listen to this crowd” or anything close to it.
So, go ahead Rexy, enjoy it while it lasts. The same Fireman Ed that was probably tounging your balls after accepting your gift today will be cursing your name with the rest of the crowd once you get knocked out in the Wild Card round (or worse don’t even make the playoffs).
