The "journalist" is allegedly Schefter.

Not allegedly

Quote:

Several emails between Allen and journalists are part of the filing too. In one of them from July 2011, ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter sent Allen the draft of an unpublished story that was published later the same day.

“Please let me know if you see anything that should be added, changed, tweaked,” Schefter wrote. “Thanks, Mr. Editor, for that and the trust. Plan to file this to espn about 6 am ….”

ESPN released the following statement in response to the correspondence: “Without sharing all the specifics of the reporter’s process for a story from 10 years ago during the NFL lockout, we believe that nothing is more important to Adam and ESPN than providing fans the most accurate, fair and complete story.”

Ah, so it's actually out now. Last I read yesterday they'd kind of vaguely mentioned it was him without outright confirming it.

Weren't McVay, Shanahan, and LaFleur all at Washington around this time...?

You wanna talk about opening pandora's box...yeesh...

I'm sad because I was looking forward to 7 more years of Raiders mediocrity

now they might stumble into a decent coach instead of being 8-9 or 9-8 for years to come

The good news is that this might get Bieniemy the job.

Granted, you're not gonna get 7 more years of mediocrity out of him, but you'll probably get 3-4 before they move on and in the process we'll get a couple of draft picks...

Never a big fan of Gruden's often condescending attitude when he speaks. However this politically correct mob rule is ruining lives and this nation. Few among us have never said, thought or written something others might find offensive. Limits to our freedoms here should only be narrowly and carefully
proscribed, such as "fire" in a crowded theater or "bomb" on an airplane.

How else do you think Schefter got his access? LMAO

Exactly.

This is the sausage getting made fellas.

All these guys who "know a guy" have given a whole lot of handjobs to get that insider intel.

Learned it from others. Not sure if it was meant to be racist. I am 52. Iowa.
Never said Tiger FWIW.

But in the age of wokeism-there is no forgiveness. Saying something that was not meant to be taken that way is still a chance to destroy someone.

Not forgiving chuckie. Not really paying attention to him. Just the raiders raidering.


this world is ****ed up in so many ways. Innocent things are twisted into racially motivated statements by others that have no clue.

Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will make me cancel you.
off to DC

I think the way bigger story here is yet again the corrupt and powerful have found a way to do the worst of the worst things, yet successfully divert your attention by lobbing everyone else under the bus. How in the hell is this even a story about gruden and schefter while Snyder goes completely untouched. The woke pitchforks are focused on gruden and the opposite side is screaming cancel culture. Meanwhile the biggest villains just slide off into the background. How is it possible that after all the WFT bullshit, Snyder has become more powerful? That the worse this gets for gruden and schefter, the better it gets for Snyder, even though he's the reason for the investigation?

What gruden did was stupid and he deserves some shit for it. But it's just incredible that an espn guy who now coaches the raiders is the focal point of a leak that's supposed to be about the redskins.

Well, it may **** him over now that it's become public
Seen other journalists point at it and say "no, that's not normal behavior" even though it almost assuredly is. He's the top dog in that world, along with Rapoport, and it'll be interesting to see who tries to knock him down the ladder.

Hammock Parties 10-13-2021 09:03 AM

Nobody will. That's how all the top level insiders work.

Kevin Durant: "Pale pasty cum guzzling bitch!" LMAO:LOL:LMAO :clap:

Gruden: "Rubber lips" sucks and the NFL commish is a bundle of sticks :#:cuss: Cancel him for LIFE! He's a homophobic racist!

There is definitely a double standard. But it was convenient for the NFL and DeMaurice Smith. Agendas at work.
