Bob Kraft getting a rub-and-tug in a massage parlor was also "not a football issue," but here we are.

Most massage parlors will allow you to upgrade from a rub-and-tug to a yank-and-spank for an extra $50...

Bob Kraft getting a rub-and-tug in a massage parlor was also "not a football issue," but here we are.

I don't see this as a football issue.  I see this as a Mike and Jen issue.  He isn't the first NEP head coach to cheat on his wife.  No Patriots fan ever suggested BB being fired for his marriage infidelity.   

I don't see this directly costing him his job.  If NE has a losing record this year, I could see his inability to remain focused on the job thru a self-created distraction being cited as a reason for his firing, but if the NEP wins the division again, he will be praised for his ability to remained focused thru the distraction.

The most messed-up part of it I've heard so far is:

1) There are pics from 2020 of Russini and Vrabel kissing in a bar
2) Russini got married later in 2020
3) She gave birth to a boy in 2021 that she named "Michael"
4) This tweet:

I don't know how it is a sham as he has been married to her since 99. They are college sweethearts. I can't imagine him missing part of the draft if he didn't think it was best for him.

I don't think it will cost him his job, but it may have cost him his marriage. Based on what I've heard though, the marriage was a sham anyway. Him stepping away from the team seems to be an attempt to save his marriage, not his job.

I've been so out of it lately, that I had no idea this was a thing until a friend brought it up to me yesterday.

So, I think they've been trickling the truth -- lying about each step and only admitting what was discovered, as more and more is discovered.

I heard that Vrabel missed some of the draft prep.  And that she had to step down.

I can't imagine that this would cost him his job, no matter how bad it got (not that it should).  But I wonder what everyone's thoughts on this are.

I like that the Dolphins picked up a couple of extra 5th round picks and still got a stud offensive lineman. We'll see how he turns out compared to Fano or Mauigoa, but you can't complain about moving down 1 spot to pick up 2 extra picks. They can always use those guys to move up later in the draft to go after someone.

My thought on whether that is a good idea is purely contextual.  If you have one guy who you absolutely love you should not make the trade.  If you don't have a consensus pick, with half the room wanting one guy and the other half wanting the other guy, or a lot of guys saying that they like equally, then absolutely take the extra picks.
