Yes the guy who only a few years ago not so subtly stated he cared more about his off the field career than continuing to play football. The same guy who has said about Jets fans:
“[Jets fans are] a bunch of them chanting their dumb-ass chant and all that other stuff, being the ignorant fans they are. I said it. I don’t care if they get mad at me or not. They don’t like me anyway. Quite frankly, I don’t care… I’m just being real. I’m telling the truth. You carry yourself with some class, and we’ll talk about you as if you’ve got class. If you want to act crazy and do all the crazy things they do, I’ll call a spade a spade.”
I don't want this guy on the Jets. He's old and hasn't hit double-digit sacks since 2007. He hates the fans; he thinks we are all dumb, beer swilling, foul mouthed imbeciles.
“I’ve had a lot of history saying bad things about Jets fans. The fireman hat guy and all of those people in New York that are Jets fans aren’t the ones working on Wall Street. I’ve said all of those things, so I’ve got to leave it at that.”
What the hell does working on Wall Street have to do with being a fan?
What he fails to understand is that we aren't we just appear that way because we are the most passionate fans for our team. We live and die with the Jets.
I know Taylor isn't washed up, but he certainly isn't the same player that won defensive player of the year.
I'll hate it if it happens, but I trust Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum and head coach Rex Ryan. If they think he'll help, then I'll support it. Why? Because I'm a Jets fan.
