At half time of their game against the New England Patriots, the New York Jets were headed into the locker room. As they were headed in, a New England fan yells to Coach Ryan, "Hey Rex, Belichick is better than you." In response to the fan's comment, Coach Ryan yells back, "Shut Up!!", while using an obscenity. Despite his day later apology, stating that the indigent was "a mistake", he was fined $75,000.
Although I do agree with the fact that he should have simply keep things professional, I think that his penalty is an outrage. He was fined $75,000 for cursing. Something that is done in every day life. Yes it was to a fan, and yes he shouldn't have said it but that is TOO much for cursing. Honestly if it was me I wouldn't have apologize for that if I had to pay that amount. I would've made it CLEAR that I meant EVERY word. But thats just me.
