    You are either one of Parcells' guys or you're not. If you aren't, he can be a complete prick. I don't know anything about the Taylor situation, but it wouldn't shock me if BP was a douche to him.

    I'll always like BP for making the Jets relevent in NY, but the guy can be extremely difficult.

    And I don't see how Miami fans can give Taylor crap. He did what he felt he had to do. I still wear my Pennington jersey with pride. The guy gave his all for my team and I'm glad he got that opportunity with you guys. Would I have been happier if he went to say the Panthers? Sure. But at the end of the day he owed the Jets nothing and did what he had to do.

    Taylor may be wearing Jets green today, but we all know he will always be a Dolphin and I have no problem with that.

    The Taylor and Pennington situations are different.

    Taylor wanted a contract extension. He was offered one. He didn’t like the form it came in and left.

    Pennington was cut after the Jets traded for Brett Favre.

    I'm sorry but he is one of two players I have grown up with the Dolphins in the last few years. i have respected him all the way, he has done everything expected of him.

    The Parcells regime has changed the way he feels about the place for sure, and he doesn't feel wanted in the way he feels, and Parcells feels the way he should be used.

    I'm ok about that too.

    But lets not Dis on a player thats been great to this club. I know you don't mean to do that either.

    Don't think that I am not pissed that he has gone to the Jets, I am, and I don't know the reason why either, but you cant put all the blame on Taylor.

    Sorry Dee, just read your previous comment. Interesting !

    Was he offered a better contract by the Dolphins or any one else?

    Lebatard always maintains that the contract dispute was over Parcell's sliding him a post it note instead of dealing with Jason's agent. A move Jason saw as being disrespectful and unprofessional.

    I'm with you on the dancing with the stars take. It was a commitment he made prior to Parcells being hired so you really can't fault either side IMO.

    But who really gives a sh!t? It's just a stupid little game on a radio show. It's for sh!ts and giggles, baby.

    In the end, both sides justifiably feel like the other side is the douche.

    BTW- Landshark stadium was the biggest douche move by far IMO.

    Embrace your inner douche!

    Taylor starts by saying I don't want to beat a dead horse, than says if you hold my hand over I fire yes parcells is the reason I left. Well what is it Jason, you don't want to talk or you do want to talk?

    Taylor just can't help himself, he is a drama queen.

    I have all the respect for what he did playing for the Fins.

    I have no respect for anything that comes out his mouth.

    The Dolphins kept their original offer on the table up until he signed with the Jets, while Taylor kept denying that they had made a contact offer at all. The subject of whether or not there was an offer was in dispute, with some South Florida media members claiming that Taylor’s version of events was right, and some others claiming that there was indeed an offer on the table.

    According to Dan Le Batard, Taylor told him the Dolphins offered him 1 year and $2 million in November of 2009. Taylor turned it down. The Dolphins kept the deal on the table. Taylor signed with the Jets.

    No. Like I mentioned, 1 year, $2 million.

    Taylor wasn’t angry about the amount offered. He was angry that the first offer was verbal, and the second offer was on a post-it note.

    And what did the Jets end up giving him? I'm sorry...I really didn't follow his signing. I just remember thinking, "Oh Christ, not that bald headed prick!" :)

    36..Jets were in the AFC Title game, and he did have a uncertain future in Miami.

    Look at our Lb corps now, at best he would be in the Q Moses role, if that much, if he made the team, the Jets offered him a legit shot for a Title and playing time.

    I can't blame the man for that, the rest is just kinda jibber jabber to me.

    2 years, $13 million from the Jets.

    If it was about the money, then Taylor wouldn’t have waited until April to sign with the Jets. He was holding out in case the red carpet rolled out of the Dolphins HQ at Davie.

    I can't blame the guy for taking 13 million. He'd be an idiot not to.

    The $13 million was his second option. He wanted a “real” offer from the Dolphins, real apparently meaning “not written on a post-it note.”

    You should be annoyed he waited four months to take $13 million from your team.

    As long as he leaves it all out on the field, I couldn't care less how long he waited. Why would I?

    You guys really think J.T. woulda been happy collecting only Quentin Moses snaps? I think I'm pretty happy with the guys we got now.

    I don’t know. You’d have to ask the guys in the locker room who don’t want him there, which is pretty much the entire team.

    I'm sure they loved him when he went in with an injured elbow and blasted Gay Brady to seal the win.

    Parcells is just a jerk and a hard ***: he makes his judgments and a player has to go a ways to prove otherwise.

    JT, for going to the Jets, douche.

    **** Jason Taylor.

    And I'm not even defending Parcells. He does seem douchey to me. Just wanted to say that and finally found the right thread.

    It's douchey even making mention of this. It's a little
    game on the show, and, JT actually called Dan a
    dousche for asking the question. It's all in fun, and
    if you expect JT to have love for a guy that treated him
    like garbage, I think that's pretty unrealistic.

    In the interview Taylor stated that there was at
    no time an offer made to him on a post it note. It
    was all "A verbal thing." according to him.

    Anyone else meet Jason Taylor before? Probably one of the biggest celebrity dick heads I've ever met. I trash canned his jersey (srs) after meeting him. Everyone around was shocked at what a douche bag he was. He just carries a really nasty attitude, and I'm saying that from having the experience of seeing him in person multiple times.

    I know it can be annoying at times to be noticed every where you go, but I witnessed him telling a CHILD to "**** off" as he was asked to take a picture with him.

    Zach Thomas on the other hand is a really nice dude.... JT should model himself after his brother in law.

    That's the most recent interview. The one where he starts out saying he did not want to get into how things transpired. Then slowly he starts. Then goes full blown into how things went........once again!

    Parcells has yet to comment though

    I met JT on South Beach with his wife and he was real cool. This was a long time ago and it might have helped that I was wearing an Orange #99 at the time but he was mad cool to me...
