Bet Box: Don’t buy this change of di-Rex-tion

OK, Rex, what the what are you up to? You actually like the Patriots now? Come on!

Most around here realize that Rex Ryan is looser than a cannon aimed at his own head but for the Buffalo Bills coach to actually utter words of adulation and praise and envy and ring-bearing joy about Bill Belichick and the Patriots is tantamount to treason with Hate-triots everywhere and to his own well-perceived persona.

Perhaps seeing his twin brother, Rob, get fired by the Saints as defensive coordinator — New Orleans did give up 477 yards of offense on Sunday to the Redskins, but we digress — brought a sympathetic tone to Rex’ personality.
