Rex Ryan Press Conference Dodges Foot Fetish Questions (VIDEO)

We all knew this was coming.

After Deadspin dropped its intriguing report of Rex Ryan's wife appearing in "sexy feet" videos on YouTube, and outlined Ryan's potential involvement, it was bound to come up at his next press conference.

That press conference was today. Less than 24 hours after the first report, the media asked a barrage of questions, ranging from is that really his wife in the videos, how did the videos get to YouTube and why doesn't he simply deny the claims if they're not her?

The New York Jets coach would have none of it, clearly prepared for the onslaught and repeatedly saying it's a "personal matter," one he doesn't wish to discuss.

WATCH one of the most awkward NFL press conferences ever:

Were the questions out of line? Did Ryan handle them well? Let us know what you think in the comments!

what a non story. Boring. Its his wife I'm sure they do a lot of things together that are way more freaky than that. They've been married for 23 years for God sakes. Give it a break.

I loved that the Bears took one from him today....Jets, really good team,good coach, ain't going to the Super Bowel. I really don't like this guy. Anyone watch him on the H.B.O. sports show ripping on his wife's spending habits? Wonder what she thought.

He is probably secretly happy that everyone has seen his wife's feet. Her pretty little feet. :)

ACTUALLY, the press is acting like sleeze.
What does this have to do with anything newsworthy?
DO journalism you scumsuckers!
This type of behavior is what brought us the FOX Fiction.

What does the NFL have to do with anything newsworthy?

As long as you're covering the or&y, you might as well ask about the pre-party.

One thing we do know is it seems to be a personal matter. Seriously, do we have nothing better to report and worry about than what a man who happens to be an NFL coach does with his wife?

These two are married, the video was harmless. I can so see Rex thinking he was being provacative and his wife played along. Nothing here worth speaking publicly about....

What's ironic about this story is that had Ryan been outed as g a y ( and I think that he's as straight as a laser beam ) instead of the media poking fun at him, it would have immediately rushed to his defense.

I bet Halloween is especially exciting at the Ryan household..."TRICK OR TREAT, SMELL MY FEET, GIVE ME SOMETHING GOOD TO EAT!!!"
