Shut up already

I'm hard pressed to remember a sports event -- professional or otherwise -- where so many words have been thrown around through bravado, carelessness or downright stupidity.

I can't recall where so much time has been spent analyzing a player's speech pattern to see if he is sending a subliminal message and where the alleged powers-that-be are talking about clamping down on trash talk even before a coin has been flipped.

But I can't resist a bit of my own to whoever emerges from the Jets-Patriots F-off in Foxboro. Beware of Aaron Rodgers.
