Russini & Vrabel Nothing to see here?

Perception is reality at the very best. Nobody would want to see their husband or wife interacting like these photos showed.

Yeah, everyone's a child.

I had this post created and almost hit post when I deleted it. Then I saw someone else created it. I don't really know why but after looking at it more..they are both ****ed in their marriages. Russini has that look if you know what I mean. I'm not being judgmental but if anyone can look at this in any other way than they are boinking each other while being married...I dunno. The spin now about all these other people being there...I mean you can't see anybody even close.

Too bad too because now this impacts the families including Vrabels kids etc. As someone said this was the worst known secret in sports dating back to the Titans and before she was even married. It also doesn't do much good for the organization right now either with the draft coming up.

It was a grade A ****up by Vrabel. I thought he was a bit smarter than that, but at the end of the day he is an ex jock. So it's not surprising.

I am not saying we know for sure what happened but I don’t know why either one would put themselves in that position. Maybe I am just a boring guy but the thought of blowing up my life and my marriage and the negative impact on my kid to hook up with some random chick is just so stupid. I know people cheat all the time but it always seemed like such a selfish betrayal that hurts the people you're supposed to love the most.

I don't care. I am guessing these are probably innocent photos taken out of context. Not sure if they were having an affair that they would be so open in public during the owners' meeting with the entire NFL media world in Arizona for the owners' meeting. Sure Sedona is like two hours away from Phoenix, but I am sure that Russini and Vrabel weren't the only ones up in Sedona before the meetings.

But even if they are having an affair, who cares? I am not his wife or her husband or their respective children. It isn't any of my business. If they cheated, they are pretty scummy but it still ain't my business. Unless it affects how Vrabel runs the Patriots, I don't care. Plenty og players, owners, and coaches have done far worse than having an affair.

Gonna leave the full quote vrable had about cutting his penis in half a couple months ago.

"
During an appearance on the Bussin' with the Boys podcast that year, he told hosts Taylor Lewan and Will Compton that he was so ready for a win that he'd be willing to cut off his penis.


“Been married 20 years. Yeah, probably,” he told them, jokingly adding, "You guys will be married for 20 years one day. You won't need it."'

it's jut not my business, and nothing they are doing is changing the world one way or another

It doesn't need to change the world to be relevant - it just needs to impact Vrabel and potentially the team. @Brotherblues did a good job of articulating why it might be relevant to the team and its players.

Beyond all that, it's certainly highly relevant to Vrabel and his family. This stuff is brutal on the partner being cheated on, and especially the kids. I really can't emphasize enough how much an affair/separation/divorce can impact children. Don't mean to be melodramatic and sanctimonious, but I always cringe at the idea of kids being dragged through the confusion, stress, uncertainty, and heartache of family turmoil.

Ending with the major caveat of, if they did have an affair, we do not (yet) know if that was something the respective couples involved green-lighted and mutually agreed-upon.

Hey. All part of the pre draft process. He was working her out.......... Too soon?

 

[catent]

The tabloid Post calls this "holding hands". There's quite a big difference between this and what I'd call holding hands in a romantic way.

Possible that they arrived separately as they said and here they agreed to meet up on these rooftops to chat and look at this scenery which is amazing. It's not like there was a kiss or the tabloid 100% would have caught it on camera. But yeah it doesn't rule out the worst case scenario that many are talking about. I'm sure he'll have to explain what this was to his wife. I wouldn't exactly be thrilled with this either if I was in their SO's shoes...

What would you call this?

 

[ViperGTS]

What would you call this?

Look at all those people aroun...oh wait. Yeah nobody there. Best case scenario is they have a brother sister type relationship. That is the very best.

 

[BUSTAMOVE]

Thank God the draft will soon be here

That wide shot is just brutal. My wife didn't think the other photos were good, but that one added the context that made it look not great for either of them.

What would you call this?

I'd call that not reading the post you're replying to.

 

[Betterthanmost]

What would you call this?

I am trying to put myself in his shoes and explaining this to my wife. So we … help. I will need Jimmy McGill to get me out of this one with little damage at home.
My wife just said what if they had just finished dinner and were hugging good bye? The image can make it seem like something it was not. Hmmm..

If that is the worse thing that happens in your marriage, you will be OK.

I think many partners - guys, gals, nonbinary pals - would be troubled seeing their partner spending one-on-one time with another potential sexual partner, appearing to romantically embrace on a rooftop only accessible via private rooms.

And short of a really good, coherent reason for why one appeared with that other person under those circumstances, I could absolutely envision the other partner leaving over it, and with good reason.

I know that if my girlfriend saw me alone, embracing another woman like that at couple's resort while on an out-of-town business trip, our relationship would almost certainly be over, and I wouldn't blame her one bit.

Suffice to say, I think if this was to happen in most marriages, the people involved (or, at the very least, the marriage itself) would very much not be OK.

Why does Vrabs always pick Karen Guregian 1st in the interviews...

EDIT: apparently my sarcasm / joke meter is broken

 

[catent]

I'd call that not reading the post you're replying to.

I most certainly read your post and my response was based on that. I didn't miss anything.

You suggested that the hand-holding isn't actually romantic in nature. So I shared a different photograph and asked how you'd describe that sort of physical contact - is that also nonromantic in your eyes?

Since you went there first, I'll give it right back: might I suggest you more carefully attempt to understand the post(s) you're reading? Because you clearly didn't understand my reply in the context of our exchange.

Don’t go there Not fair on Karen. I am inclined to believe the pictures without context is making imaginations run wild. But folks are coming with alternative narratives that makes sense. That this was an innocent encounter and all that happened has been shown. Finished dinner, in saying good bye, they briefly clasp hands and went for a hug. Reports they had dinner at the roof too and that looks like the roof top of that resort.

It does not appear to be a romantic embrace - LOL. If you think that is romantic, I can't image what your love life is like.

If you and your girlfriend have a honest and trusting relationship, and the relation would not survive witnessing an awkward hand touch, that is on you guys.

I think Vrabel is doomed after this.

I hate it when I’m doomed, let alone Vrabel.

 

[resdubwhite]

Ah listen guys. We're not going to be getting pictures of him in the act. Anyone claiming this is platonic, friendly and collegial. I got a bridge I'm selling. The only thing that matters is does it affect his career.
Not judging but the optics are far from great.
