NY Post – Who said there’s no crying in football? Jets coach Rex Ryan, with his team gathered before him for the morning meeting yesterday in the wake of the previous day’s devastating 24-22 loss to the Jaguars, delivered an impassioned speech to his players that was so emotionally-charged it brought him to tears. The memorable moment simultaneously stunned his players… “He didn’t bash us at all; he was just very emotional . . . he was crying,” right tackle Damien Woody told The Post … “I was a little upset to see him that way,” cornerback Darrelle Revis told The Post. “I’m upset for the same reasons he’s upset.” Asked if he’s ever been a part of a meeting with such high-powered emotions, Revis said: “No, I haven’t been a part of a meeting where a coach cried like that. . .”

For once, I’m with the Jets players. There’s something about watching a grown man cry that gets me right in the guts. Really. It hurts me. From laughing so hard. Are you kidding me? Rex Ryan cried because the Jets lost?! Look, we all knew he was a fraud from the jump, but exactly what kind of a fraud is this guy? Is the brash, bombastic, smack-talking, fake Tough Guy, or the mealy-mouthed, maudlin, weepy, phony Sensitive Guy? Is he T-Rex or Dewey Oxburger? Which is it? Oh, Sweet Jesus, this couldn’t have come at a better time. Coming off a tough loss in Indy with Belichick being beset on all sides, to have the Jets come to town with their usual circus of false bravado and ridiculous assclownery, and now a coach who’s obviously becoming emotionally unstable while he’s watching the wheels come off his team, this is exactly what the doctor ordered. I’m so happy I could cry. But I’m not a big, blubbering pussy.   

Oh and did I mention that Mark Sanchez read from cue cards during his post game speech on Sunday.  Not even joking.   That also has to be an NFL first.
