    Enough already Baker. You are making a fool out of yourself.

    What are you going to do next, take all the footballs and sit in a corner sulking so no one can play?

    Incredible. I mean..what the hell is going through someones mind when they pull a stunt like that.

    "If I do this...they will give me a new contract...yes!"
    or
    "If I do this..they will trade me and the team Im traded to will see what a great person and football player I am and THEY will give me lots and lots of money..yes!"

    Then...he parks the car and gets out...with plenty of time to realize what an absolute moronic move that is.

    Then again, he has the Bentley and I dont...

    Man, I really liked Chris and I guess I was fooled (along with the rest of us) with his attitude. This is a player getting payed what he deserves to be paid and nothing more. What has he done to prove that he is worth elite TE money? As much as I like Baker on the field, this horseshit he is pulling is really starting to not only piss off the Jets Org as a whole, but he is hurting his stance with the fan base which clearly shows that he could care less about anyone but himself. If I were the Jets... I'd clear his locker and throw his stuff in the parking lot and wish him luck. Does he really think he's going to make anymore elsewhere? Be realistic Chris.

    And honestly, are we going to feel any more uncomfortable without him? I mean Franks and Keller sound just fine to me.

    You have to love that, you can't even make this stuff up. I have a feeling the red Bentley in the Team President's spot will go down in Jets lore with some of the all-time bonehead moves.

    haha seriously! has this been reported on a wider scale? because the only place i've seen/heard it is here. seems like stunts like this are what have ESPN drooling due to their sensationalism fascination.

    as far as the Jets organization goes, i'm surprised they're tolerating this. maybe they're waiting to find a good deal, waiting for teams to make cuts or potential injury so we have more leverage in dealing him.

    Maybe they are getting his room ready in the rookie dorm as we speak. They left Kendall in the first pre-season game until the third quarter last year, out there with all the rookies, that's another option.

    Yes...exactly. That's the kind of message the FO needs to send. This crap is getting ridiculous.

    i cannot wait to see what dorm he gets.....

    i would also give him his own parking space, next to the closest 6 yd dumpster, and under a few conifers so the birds can have a field day.....

    you have got to wonder what genius is giving him advice cause there is no way a veteran NFL player should be making these kinds of missteps on his own...

    maybe they'll try a new tactic, other than the dorm one.

    The dorm thing was pretty lame, and they got savaged in the press for it, so I doubt they'll go that route again.

    I think we've already seen what they're doing - they're fining him for obscure violations. I expect the next time he parks his car in the wrong place they'll have it towed to a lot on Staten Island.

    The Jets have no reason to do anything right now. They'll wait to see if they can get anything for him, and if he doesn't like it, too bad.

    Then what happens when Franks gets hurt and kellers not producing because hes only a rookie and doesnt understand our schemes. He cant block for his life either. Then our starting tight end would be jason pociask

    This is a sorry mess that could turn into a disaster. If we lose one lineman and Baker is gone we will have s**ty line again this year! This mess needs to be resolved now. The NYJ need to figure out how to get a blocking T/E so they can get Baker out of here.

    Wouldn't that be like trading skin cancer for lung cancer ? If Shockey couldn't deal with Manning, how would he deal with the CP/KC mess ?

    Should've towed his Bentley. Just keep fining him till he's broke. I'm sure his wife will appreciate it. When he starts asking for handouts from his teammates maybe they can tell him to cut the $hit. He's starting to remind me of Klinger. All he has to do now is dress like a woman.

    Anyone notice the Bakers supporters have completely disappeared? It seems as if he's destroyed the little faith that was still out there in him with his retarded antics.

    Good work Baker. Your new agent is a gem!
