Jets coach Rex Ryan fined $100K for profane outburst

[Auggie]

Ryan was fined $100,000 by the league for his profane outburst last Sunday after his team snapped an eight-game losing streak with an upset win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.

In six seasons as the Jets' coach, Ryan has been fined a total of $225,000 for three separate outbursts.

This time, Ryan was caught on camera yelling "F--- you!" to someone on the field. It happened as he walked to midfield for the postgame handshake.

Ryan, who received an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty in the fourth quarter for arguing an unsportsmanlike-conduct penalty on quarterback Michael Vick, was seething because he felt the officials didn't "protect" Vick as well as Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger throughout the game. Both quarterbacks were subjected to questionable hits, but the Steelers weren't penalized for any of them.

2. He sees the handwriting on the wall and is just lashing out.

He knows he will be fired after this dreadful season. I guess you can only milk 1 good year and a loss in the AFC championship game for so long.

4. As much as I dislike Sexy Rexy, he was right to be upset...

at both the officials and the rape-enablers.

5. I'm going to miss Rex when they axe him.

Hell, I can't even name any of the other coaches in the AFC East besides him and BB.
