There's definitely an element of that to be sure. I am guessing if it was, say, Zac Taylor instead of Mike Vrabel, it wouldn't go anywhere.

It's very strange to me how the rise of social media has made many people act so much more "puritan" online. I don't get it. If this was 15-20 years ago I don't think people would really care at all, it would barely be news, especially if it's a successful coach like Vrabel who was just in the...

Agreed, I think he is probably a guy who plays ~50% of the snaps and is the beneficiary of scheme. Dre'Mont Jones is probably nearly an every-down starter on the other side, and Landry rotates with younger players, including Ponder, Swinson, and whoever gets drafted this year.

People keep interpreting these two still images as if they are videos lol. Because they grasped hands for one instant, they must have held hands for a long time. Because they hugged briefly facing a specific direction for an instant, they must have held that pose for a long time, embracing each...

Not sure about that one. She may actually be fighting for her career BY LEAVING. If she stayed she would have been stuck silenced during the draft. By leaving, she can find work elsewhere during a very busy period of time. Many are assuming she is radioactive and nobody will offer her any work...

Right. If anything, the fact that the draft is right around the corner is more reason to quit. She was suspended and ordered to silence by her employer indefinitely while they “investigated”. Her contract was almost up anyway. May as well voluntarily end it herself and free herself to be able to...

I think it would be interesting to go on the “if I was a man” defense - as in, if I was a male reporter chilling in the pool two feet apart, or having a quick not-very-romantic bro hug with a coach, would anyone have cared? It would just be dudes hanging out. But because I’m a woman it’s...

This is a fair point. They also suspended her, so she was stuck being unable to actually do her job or do anything but sit and be ridiculed indefinitely. So instead she walks away from a couple months of salary in order to be free to write independently or pick up a contract with another outlet.

I don't know what grounds they would have, as he did not violate any conduct policy that I am aware of. No law was broken, no charges were pressed or threatened to be pressed. As you've said, this is a personal issue. Not to make light of the issue, but it would be like disciplining a coach for...

The resignation is not a great sign, though it is mostly a reflection of her side of things. It does add more credence to the fact that there was inappropriate activity going on. I don't know why else she would resign, unless she felt the NYT was going to terminate her simply for fraternizing...

Well in light of some of the comments from Eliot Wolf today, maybe they do trade their 1st round pick? Maybe something like pick 31 in exchange for Brown and a 3rd coming back. Perhaps they’d prefer to make a lot of picks in the middle rounds to have more shots to get specific guys they want...

Your post is just assumption built upon assumption built upon assumption.

No shot it's for a 1st, not gonna happen. A 2nd round pick max.

What lol. This feels like working backwards from a conclusion

Yeah, for all we know Jen may let Mike enjoy some extramarital relations with a few chosen ladies. If so, it would actually be somewhat clever to get in bed with (literally) a national NFL reporter who has connections all over the league and can help you control the media to a certain degree...

We have not heard a peep. My guess is that there'll be nothing, the draft will happen, real NFL news will overwrite much of this; eventually Vrabel will have a conference and will be asked about this and he will have a reaction something along the lines of "IDK what you're talking about...

Even so, it’s still a good measuring stick - or rather a lack of measurement, as the reply was almost unanimous. Lots of sound and fury in the “main” thread on the topic, but this poll has been up since yesterday afternoon and only 2 votes out of 41 representing any actual consequences, which...

Right it was something like: Win and outside help: avoid play-in Win: play-in at home Lose: travel for play-in I think most fans would expect playing the other team’s bench would mean achieving option “B” at a minimum with an outside chance at option “A”. Losing outright is pretty rough, but I...

Didn’t this game have serious playoff implications on the line for the Magic too? So they absolutely needed a win, and still somehow got cooked by the Celtics bench.

Also, don’t worry @n1997y I realize you are posting this sarcastically. I know not everyone realizes that but that kinda makes it more funny…
