Reggie Jackson wants Antonio Cromartie to shut up. Jackson, a Hall of Fame outfielder and designated hitter, was displeased with Cromartie's comments about New England Patriot's QB Tom Brady. Cornerback Cromartie's New York Jets will play the Pats in a playoff game this weekend. Jackson's main criticism is that Cromartie doesn't have the "hardware" to boast.
Jackson also suggested that Cromartie read a book and watch game film, in the hopes that he might "figure something out" and "get educated."
Jackson has regularly defended Jets head coach Rex Ryan over the past two seasons but has since become displeased with the coach, particularly over his criticism of Brady watching the play Lombardi last week instead of watching the Jets-Colts game. New England had a bye in the first round of the playoffs. Jackson also compared Brady to New York Yankees' RHP Mariano Rivera.
Jackson is a Jets fan.
The Pats and Jets play Sunday at 4:30 at Gillete Stadium in Foxboro, Massachusetts.
