I didn’t post this yesterday because I just naturally assume that anyone who follows Warming Glow is also doing themselves the favor of reading Kissing Suzy Kolber’s weekly Five Best Moments from “Hard Knocks” feature.
However, in case you’re missing the summer sensation that is HBO’s “Hard Knocks,” you need to acquaint yourself with Jets coach Rex Ryan and motivational speeches. In this profanity-ridden clip, Ryan chews out his team, calling them “jackasses” and a “slapdick team.” But Rex understands that you can’t tear down the people you lead without picking them back up, so he ends a high note: “Let’s go eat a goddamn snack.”
After he finishes coaching, this man will make millions of dollars as a motivational speaker. Or I could just pay him to be my dad.

his dad service charges extra for drunk midnight rape… i uh… saw it on a flyer
To clarify:
Cheeseburgers before stretching = Jackass
Snacks after team meeting = Required
Therefore, only jackasses stretched after this meeting.
Fuck these slapjack dickasses–put this man in charge of our forces in Afghanistan.
I would pay good money to experience a motivational speech from this man.
Thank god he’s not the coach for the OTHER slapdick NY team.
Yawn! Tired and old act!
Rex’s problem is the fact that his team is playing precisely like the New York Jets are supposed to play. All of Rex’s epic speeches can’t change the fact that the Jets have been a slapdick team since Super Bowl III and continue to be just that. Hopefully Rex realizes this soon and takes his talents to a team more worthy of his awesomeness (like the Giants, where he would be welcome replacement for Fuhrer Coughlin).
/Big Blue still owns this market
//only redeeming thing about Jets and their fans was the Gate D stuff before it got stopped
They are just acting like their coach.
Where did they learn to act like that?
They learned it from watching you, Ryan. They learned it from watching you.
isn’t every team in New York, no matter the sport, a bunch of slapdick jackasses?
General Patton gave this exact speech in WW2. In fact after hearing that speech, I want to invade Normandy.
