John Tortorella Hates Ringing Cell Phones [VIDEO] [NSFW]

New York Rangers head coach John Tortorella was noticeably upset with a reporter whose cell phone was ringing during a postgame press conference.

*Warning* John Tortorella says a cuss word in this video.

New York Rangers head coach John Tortorella is well known for being short with the media.  Tortorella sometimes makes New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick and San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich look like jovial teddy bears.  Torts is notoriously short on sometimes condescending with the media.  It happens so routinely that DJ Steve Porter actually made a mix of Tortorella's short retorts (below).

After the Rangers were able to beat the New Jersey Devils 3-0 in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals, Tortorella was upset with a reporter who didn't silence his/her cell phone.  Tortorella pointed at the reporter and said, "That's ridiculous."  He's completely right in this instance.  It's one thing to forget to silence your phone, but why wouldn't you silence your phone immediately once it starts ringing?  The reporter's phone was ringing off the hook.  What's up with that?  I'm with you on this one, Torts.  Sometimes, you're too big of a jerk, but you were right on the money with this one.  The Rangers host the New Jersey Devils in Game 2 Wednesday night at 8:00pm ET.
