Exclusive | New England Patriots’ Mike Vrabel and top NY Times NFL reporter Dianna Russini hold hands and hug at luxury hotel

They were snapped in late March at the Ambiente in Sedona, Arizona, a boutique resort set against the breathtaking Brins Mesa mountain range.

Probably nothing but Mike might have some explaning to do with the Mrs at home. Their initial explanation is that it was a chance encounter and they were at seperate hotels. Need Vrabs full attention this season. He does not need a new tight end!

This is the one I have a hard time explaining though. Not sure what platonic context you can explain here
 
She's a reporter who already has a bit of a reputation (perhaps deserved, perhaps not).... and as I mentioned in another thread, this hotel is too far off the map for them to just coincidentally have run into each other....

Vrabel and Russini deny.

Let's be honest, if it was true, the would still deny it.

Maybe it is innocent. But there's definitely smoke. They are at an off grid adult's only resort that markets itself as a couples getaway, they aren't there with their spouses, the people who reported on it said they didn't see them with anyone else, Russini has a reputation that this checks with, there's a lot of Titan fans who will tell you there were hints of rumors back when he was there and that Russini's reporting on the team dried up once Vrabes left.

It's definitely suss at this point.

Not that it's the biggest deal ever. Millionaire football coach going around getting some strange isn't something I'm losing much sleep over. Especially since she's at least age appropriate and not making him take mermaid pics on the beach
 
Gonna be tough to explain that to the Missus, IMO. Either there is smoke there OR those photos were perfectly timed.

I don’t give a **** what consenting adults do. Maybe he and his wife have an “understanding”. More common than you think.

He did say his wife would help with "the deed" he'd be willing to do to guarantee a Lombardi.

Not for him but it could be for her career, who's going to feed her information knowing she's potentially compromised.
 
Honest question…how did Vrabel score a worse side piece than Bill? Russini?

Nah

Why doesn't it look good? They were part of a group of 6 and a few photos were carefully taken. Crafted stories get paid a lot of money, well rounded honest stories tend not to earn much.
 
I guess I’ll pay a little more attention to what Russini is saying about the patriots.

It seems that she has direct access right now.
 
I personally don’t like cheating.

But these celebrities lives are so complicated and intertwined. They don’t live lives like us. If he’s not doing anything illegal, it’s really none of my business to really speculate.

We have no clue what was actually going on, and we also have no clue what dynamics are going on in each of their marriages. He could be in an open marriage for all we know.
 
Could be something, but these pictures really don’t tell us anything at all. All we know is they hung out for some amount of time, there’s no evidence of anything romantic as far as I have seen.

People point to rumors from back when she was the Titans beat reporter but that can also be an explanation for why they would be hanging out - they have a close relationship from back then. But just because they’re opposite sex doesn’t automatically mean it’s a sexual relationship.

That said, it raises an eyebrow for Russini regardless since she’s supposed to have some impartiality as a national reporter these days but as far as Vrabel is concerned I am not worried about it. If it was actually an affair I would think these photos would be a little more… I don’t know… direct. Touchy feely. Something tells me Vrabel isn’t a guy who keeps a woman at arm’s length.
