Fuck the Jets

Everyone seems aghast at Santonio Holmes' stunt this Sunday, including his teammates:

"I'll tell you what. It's tough for guys to follow a captain that kind of behaves in that manner."
-- Jets running back LaDainian Tomlinson, on Santonio Holmes, after Holmes got into a shouting match with a player or players in the huddle late in the Jets' loss to Miami, then, according to those on the sidelines, took himself out of the game with the New York season on the line. Holmes is a team captain.

Umm...hello?  Santonio Holmes being a jerkoff shithead is exactly  WHY  Chris Christie  Rex Ryan  made him a captain! Surely I'm not the only one who remembers  Chris Christie  Rex Ryan  licking his chops with glee and smarmily patting himself on the backfat when he announced Holmes would be a captain.  Of COURSE a guy known for generally being an asshole with a police record that's longer than his statline on the back of his bubblegum card would be chosen by Fat Ass to be captain, shoving in everybody's face the "The Rex Ryan Way", ie "Acting Like Complete Shitheads."  Holmes was chosen as captain not because he's any sort of leader, but so that the back pages of the NYC tabloids would *gasp!* at  Chris Christie  Rex Ryan's audaciousness, and the final minutes of the Jets debacle was the price he pays for shit like that.  And if you don't think he'd do it all over again, you're out of your goddam mind.
