The New York Jets are just hours removed from finishing their third preseason game and already head coach Rex Ryan has lost his cool with the local media.

Ryan, who admitted that he put in quarterback Mark Sanchez during the forth quarter in an attempt to win the game was questioned about the decision, something he didn’t take very kindly to.

With Sanchez’s injury status unknown and the assumption that it will be a few weeks at minimum, Ryan was also questioned about who he felt would be the starter – again – apparently not a question Ryan was okay with.

Frustrated, Ryan began to bark back at the reporters and then started answering questions with his back turned to the question asking reporter. Then he began to speak about America and the freedom of speech and well, clearly, the toe loving Ryan wasn’t having the best night.

Of course, had he not inserted Sanchez in a PRESEASON game for no reason, he probably wouldn’t have had such a difficult time answering who his upcoming starter would be.
