I've heard people say this and it's absolutely ****ing ridiculous.
Does Marrioti actually believe that the Patriots willingly screwed themselves in order to satisfy an old friend? Last time I checked, the Patriots are interested in winning, not in making their friends happy. More importantly, this isn't exactly the first time a trade was nixed despite having another offer on the table. Players are constantly told that they can't negotiate with a team within the division and, like in the Trent Green trade, players usually choose where they want to go.
This is why everyone thinks Mariotti is a hack. Because he's a complete moron and everybody in Chicago despises him.
