i like this guy
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- Jets coach Rex Ryan sent a game ball to Marty Schottenheimer after last weekend's playoff upset of the San Diego Chargers, the team that fired the father of New York's offensive coordinator following a 14-2 regular season.
Brian Schottenheimer said he was touched when he learned of his boss' gesture Tuesday -- and joked that it didn't even occur to him to do it.
Marty Schottenheimer was fired in February 2007 after the Chargers lost their first playoff game despite having the NFL's best record that season. He had 35 wins and two AFC West titles in his last three seasons in San Diego, where his son was quarterbacks coach from 2002 to 2005.
"It felt nice to pick up the phone after the game and talk to my father," Brian Schottenheimer said Thursday.
After Sunday's 17-14 win, the son has a chance to do something his famous father never did as a head coach: reach the Super Bowl. The Jets play Sunday in the AFC Championship Game at Indianapolis.
Marty Schottenheimer is coaching college players this week at the East-West Shrine Game in Orlando, Fla.

I mean seriously, I love the Vikes and I have never seen even a second of Favre doing it and have pretty much ignored it being brought up by others. In fact the only thing annoying about it is people like you who have to whine about it

But that's because the doctors were trying to get me to add weight after having lost so much of it back in the day.

That's a ridiculous amount of food.

Turns out, they might not have to even play the game for that to happen.
