Rex with a dig "Tedy Bruschi come over and be a Jet also"

Wow that was nice of Rex, give the old warrior another shot at a ring.

Maybe sign him to an incentive laden contract like J Taylor.

And you guy's think that Rex doesen't like the Pats.

A ring? Sorry, I thought he was offering him to play for the Jets.

hey guys, i'm new here as i usually just lurk to get some extra info about happenings in the afc east. for some reason this thread stirred me to actually post. are you guys going to take every word out of rex's mouth as a personal affront? the guy was joking around with tedy. you think rex really wants him to consider playing for the jets? has having BB as your coach all these years sucked all fun and personality from the NE fans? holy moly, chill, its a freakin joke!

I think you'll find that the responses are a mixed bag, with many approaching it like an attempt to be funny with Bruschi.

But, there is a lot of bad blood between the Jets and Pats organizations and fans going back a good ways, including BB's abrupt resignation as "HC of the NYJ" and Mangini's ratting the Pats out for a video program that he used to oversee as their DC.

So, some folks overreact or fail to see the humor in a lot of things that Rex says (and, conversely, if you visit the Jets' Board, in things BB says, though admittedly humor isn't his long suit). I think it's fair to say that from Gary Myers and Hank Gola on down, across the media and among many fans in NY, there is a sense that Rex ought to shut up until he puts up, even if some of us will grant that he was just kidding around with Ted.

I thought he was talking about the Super Secret Decoder Ring from his Cereal Box.

I will not argue the fact that a majority of posters here probably need to up their underwear/boxers a size or 2.
