If the attitudes during the doldrums of the NFL offseason are any indication, somebody better get some fire extinguishers ready. The Miami Dolphins-New York Jets rivalry is already getting hot.
Tuesday night, after Dolphins linebacker Channing Crowder first learned about Jets coach Rex Ryan's unsolicited response earlier in the day regarding comments Crowder made this weekend, the talkative defensive leader returned another round of his own jabs.
''Oh, Lord have mercy,'' Crowder said Tuesday. ``What's wrong with him? Now he's talking about preparation? We play them twice this year. If he wants to be prepared, shouldn't he know the starting middle linebackers of his division rival?''
As for the notion that Ryan would ''handle him myself'' if he was ''younger,'' Crowder begs to differ.
''He says he'd take care of me if he was younger?'' Crowder said. ``I'd have beat the hell out of that big old joker. Or if he really wants to get retro, my daddy or my uncle could have handled him. Don't get big. Win with preparation? Start watching some tape and learn who your rival is. Come on now.''
