LOL! Santonio Holmes has a temper tantrum for being overworked in OTAs

[Rob0729]

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- A disgusted Santonio Holmes, who missed a handful of voluntary practice sessions while out of the country on a USO-sponsored trip to a U.S. Air Force base in Germany, pulled himself out of practice Thursday because he felt he was unfairly overworked by coaches.

The New York Jets' top wide receiver staged a mini-meltdown near the end of the two-hour workout, limping off the field and tossing his helmet. He exchanged words with receivers coach Sanjay Lal, also drawing immediate attention from the trainer.

Afterward, Holmes insisted he wasn't injured, but he was clearly bothered that the coaches wanted to give him a full workload despite his time away.

Expect Holmes and Sanchez to go on another date to a Yankees' game really soon to show how much they love each other.

Re: LOL! Santonio Holmes walks out of OTAs for being overworked

Already starting. This is great.

Well it's pretty clear at this point that he and Sanchez have fixed things

Heh.

Hehhehheh.

How can Jets fans stand being Jets fans??????

I'm serious. They must dread autumn.

He'd better be careful. Chad (I can sell PSLs) Ochocinco is available.

Heh.

Hehhehheh.

This is way better than fiction.

Let's remember, in 2010 the Steelers offered to trade Holmes for the best offer. The Jets were the only team out of 31 that would give up anything for him.

For a young receiver, SB MVP, with elite talent, that should tell you something, especially considering he was cheap salary-wise back then.

The Jets locker room is a joke

I realize you're being flippant, but this might actually be rather prescient.

Holmes is quite the diva for a WR who isn't all that great in the first place.

From PFT:

Rich Cimini of ESPNNewYork.com reports that Holmes was “disgusted” and “bothered” today when he felt that the Jets’ coaches were working him too hard, that Holmes “staged a mini-meltdown” and that he “exchanged words with receivers coach Sanjay Lal.”

After the practice session, Holmes confirmed that he thought the coaches were asking too much of him and that he wanted to ease back into things after missing much of the Jets’ voluntary offseason work while visiting an Air Force base in Germany.

“I was talking to the coach, letting him understand it was too many reps today,” Holmes said.

And Ray Ray is defending Holmes as if Holmes is his lover.

Let's hope Holmes lights up a big blunt tonight to calm his angst, then gets a mad case of the munchies and is pulled over speeding to 7-11.

 

[Joker]

and you're surprised by Ray Bray's immediate tearjerker defense, Deus???

haven't even read it yet but I can already guess the first few "sentences"...

 

[Calciumee]

According to a tweet I read yesterday (I think it was Rapsheet), Holmes thought 35 snaps was overworked!

I'd do 35 snaps! It's not hard! Tool!

Holmes has a 50 million dollar contract and is overtaxed running 25 OTA reps, without pads and with no hitting whatsoever. Way to be dedicated to your craft, Santonio!!

 

[PatsFanSince74]

Yo, Santonio.

A kid standing on his feet for eight hours flipping burgers at Mickey D's to help his family pay the bills works harder than you have to work in a no-pads, no-contact OTA on a mild June day. In fact he'd kill to trade places with you, you humanly useless piece of dreck.
