Can't Blame Rex

Rex Ryan has the most famous finger in sports until Peyton Manning or Drew Brees win the Superbowl. I for one didn't have a problem with it like many of our New York columnist did.

What happened with Ryan is something that happens every day at a sporting event. Of course, he's a public figure and everybody is going to say that he can't do that. I ask those, what would you do in that situation?

If you were an exuberant coach like Rex Ryan and you were in the middle of a sea of Dolphins fans chanting things that were probably worse than the middle finger he stuck up at them, what would you do?

Everybody I've listened to said they would ignore it. Well, most of them are lying. What Ryan did was natural. The Jets had to fine him because the organization was embarrassed. I don't agree. This is the coach that everybody was ga-ga over during the playoffs. Everyday there was another column about people on their hands and knees praying to the feet of the new guy in town.

People live their lives making sure they don't offend anybody. They live by the status-quo. Please, lets be real for once. Because Rex Ryan sure will.
