Jets fine disgruntled tight end
The relationship between the Jets and disgruntled tight end Chris Baker is deteriorating by the day. The club hit Baker with a $3,000 fine for missing an injury-treatment session at last week's mandatory minicamp, his agent, Jonathan Feinsod, confirmed Wednesday night. Baker will appeal, contending he did what was required. Baker, who boycotted voluntary workouts during the offseason because he's unhappy with his contract, showed up for minicamp and "tweaked something" in his back during warmups on the second day.

He's only disgruntled because Chad Pennington will be shot-putting the rock to him.

i love how Pats fans constently post on Jets stories. It's really sad guys. You have a good football team (eventhough the majority of your "dynasty" is now in question), but you continue to post on stories about the Jets and Mangini. Get over it guys...the Jets aren't as bad as you want them to be. Look at their recent history. There are alot of playoff appearences there. Now I know most (not all...but a **** load) of you are fake **** bandwagon fans, who began watching the Pats when Tom Brady made his firt appearence on the cover of GQ...but pretend to know what you"re talking about. You're fake **** fans...and i can't wait for your run to end so you can all go back into the woodwork just like you do with the Sox and the Celtics. Oh yeah...how many of you LOVE the Bruins...well give it time, because Im sure they'll win a cup one day and when they do, you fake **** fans will probably sell out every game.

So many people forget that the Pats were cellar dwellers before HD video. Once they get their turn in the barrel again, things are gonna get reeeeal quiet.

This is looking more and more like it is going to turn out like the Pete Kendall situation last year.

Get rid of the guy now. Kendall they had no replacement for. Baker they do.

So he was unhappy with his contract and "just happened" to "tweak something" on the second day DURING WARMUPS????
I guess he thought it would look too fishy if he did it on the FIRST DAY!

pw, why would the Skins have any interest in Baker? We already have one of the top 5 TE's in the league in Cooley, and we just drafted Fred Davis out of USC and we have a solid blocking TE in Yoder, the Skins FO wouldn't even take a look at this guy.

The Jets brass really likes to get petty. Sounds like something Belichick would pull.

bushwack ...I agree with you 100% There is another issue here also. The Redskins have 10 draft pics to tender offers to, they have announced they will do that in the next week. As they do, they need to make cuts from their 50 man roster to fit under the cap. They really are in no position at this time to pic up Bakers contract or satisfy his demands for a bigger contract...

That should read their 80 man roster.

bushwack, it was a joke... since every other disgruntled jet ends up in a redskins uniform (pete kendall, john hall, laveranues coles [the first time], santana moss, jason fabini, et. al)
so even though you have no need for him it was a joke
the jets are a miserable franchise. that's why i root for them.
