Patriots Rumor Is Mike’s job security in any danger now? (Vrabel Allegedly Caught Kissing Russini in New Photos 6-Years Ago)

[Clonamery]

Why would you jump to the conclusion that an employee having an affair with somebody employed by another company would "set our franchise back another five years"

This is 2026, not 1626. This is an NFL coach, not Jerry Falwell, Jim & Tammy Faye Baker or Jimmy Swaggart.

Do you have any idea how many peope on planet Earth have affairs, or get divorced on an annual basis?

It's nice to see there are a few adults around here. You gotta remember though, Vrabel is like their Dad and he really hurt their Mom. Deeply. Dad's gotta go, pay for what he did because they love their Mom, maybe a little too much.

We have discussed how having Drake and Vrabel made NE a desirable destination for FAs.

Vrabel’s drama has given us a black eye.

Anyone think it will impact FAs wanting to come here?

Short answer: no

Long answer: MAYBE a case could have been made if this story broke before free agency, and that is a very, very big maybe. At this point in the year, if a FA is waiting for a phone call, they're going to take the opportunity.

As for free agency 2027, in the highly unlikely event this is still a story, it will still come down to the results of this season.

I could not care less about the cheating but if it turns out that he is the father of one of her children, it becomes a whole different story.

For the kid's sake, I hope it is not.

Calm down man. I don’t know why so many online are OBSESSED with this completely made up idea because of an old tweet. It’s sad. There’s more to life than celebrity drama

She named her new born after the guy she's having an affair with ....
Then gives Big Mike a not so cryptic shout out 4 days after Little Mike arrived.

To be fair when there is smoke, there might be some fire right? Just a weird that she has a kid named Michael. I would love to know how they came up with that one.

 

[XLIX]

I mean…. It was a pretty boring draft…. Not a lot of star power IMHO….

Next year should be fantastic but last night? Meh….

Russini was one of the few journos who could turn a tip into hard news.

Vrabel was once of her sources.

 

[sb1]

Russini and her husband. Lol

I mean.... they both look bad but Diannes old tweets are..it's heartbreaking. She dunked on her husband for years in the media and it was all a confession.

We see it in politics everyday: projection.

Theres a very real chance that's his kid. If we can criticize AB or tyreek we can absolutely make fun of our coach's **** behavior.

This is what the NFL wanted all these years, to be relevant at all times. That's why the season gets longer and all the space gets eaten up between the SB and draft with rumors.

This situation has already evolved multiple times.

 

[XLIX]

How does that matter?

And how does it compare to TB12 fathering the child of his ex-girlfriend?

Completely agree. I get the odd coincidences and people rolling their eyes at the notion, but I wouldn't seriously go much farther than that unless there's actually truth to support it. Granted, I'm still stunned at this entire situation, but barring another bombshell, I'd like to hope that people don't give that one legs.

I get people going there given the timeline, but that's one of those things where if it ever comes out, that's one thing. But rumors like these are also damaging to her child, and given how cruel kids can be, it's not something I think people here should feed into.

Had an employee with a weird spelled name. I asked her how her parents came up with it. Her response was, " that's the spelling of the woman my father was having an affair with when I was born." Never asked that question again..

I think the odds are pretty good that if her husband ( ex?) had any suspicions, there would be DNA testing done, if not done already.

 

[slash83]

It should be if more and more pics come out, he’s a hypocrite. Only so much drama and bs Kraft will put up with.

100%. It's way too reckless to put so much stock into this simply because they have been photographed together during the years that the baby was born and that the child shares a first name with Vrabel, which also happens to be the 4th most common first name in the United States per census data.

To be fair, it’s more than that. It’s the very suspicious tweet in addition to the above. I don’t think it is unreasonable (let alone reckless) to consider all those facts together.

I feel like the tweet only becomes suspicious in retrospect. It was a pretty wholesome tweet without this context overlayed on top. It's not like she was speaking in code, she was just talking about her son and the league she covers.

 

[Thelonious]

No, it is not. If I am wrong, then the rot of our collective consciousness - and conscience - by continual exposure to childish clickbait, with resulting addiction to asinine, adolescent melodrama, pantytwisting sanctimoniousness. celebrity dreck, and soft-porn titillation has gone even deeper than I thought.

This whole dust-up is ridiculous and only fuels the douche bags in the media. I cannot beleive how much air time has been wasted on this. The King of Douche bags, Felger, was really excited yesterday, eeeesh.

Vrable should have pulled a BB and said nothing, saying it was only a personal matter. Please Vrable, don't listen to the douches
