Congratulations to LaDainian Tomlinson.

Jets head coach Rex Ryan sports a new tattoo on his calf. (Special to NFL.com)

Thanks to coach Rex Ryan, Tomlinson no longer has the worst leg tattoo on the Jets (here’s Tomlinson’s Jets logo calf tattoo in case you have successfully erased it from your mind).

The tattoo culture has taken a beating in recent years, considering there are more suburban soccer moms in tattoo parlors than at your average PTA meetings, but this might have taken it to a new low. And really, what is this thing supposed to mean? Here is a basic rule of thumb: Tattoos should mean something to you. This looks like Ryan walked into a tattoo shop and said, “Hey, D76 looks bitchin’!”

Personally, if I was going to pick out a tattoo for Ryan, I would have opted for something like this. What would you chose?

Hey, I am thinking of getting a tattoo. What would you suggest? Hit me up via Twitter or via Facebook. Oh, and be sure to catch the latest on the Dave Dameshek Football Program.
