They clearly have an...agreement. She has not exactly been shy about wanting "more".

They had an agreement for her to get knocked up by a coach and raise a coach's baby as his own? I doubt that very highly.

This is false

This is dumb. Simms was not fired from NBC and still does PFT. He was replaced by Mike Tomlin on Football Night in America (Sunday night). Tomlin is a major upgrade. Florio was not removed and he is promoting the Vrabel story more than TMZ.

She actually was paid pretty well if you believe some of the stories that have come out from this. Let's say 10x

Mike Vrabel makes something like $15M-20M a year. Another coach she is allegedly linked to, Sean Payton, makes $18M a year.

OK so the Patriots dropped the bag for him, but I was thinking more his prior salary. She allegedly was one of the highest paid people at the Athletic, but no way to find out for sure. It's not like they're posting contracts, but similar people get paid in the millions.

I think that rumor she made $1.5M a year is bullsh*t. I'd guess more in the $300K-500K range. But who really knows.

Her comp was over $1.5 million but was not all salary. Some was long term incentive that has already been paid out. he contract expired in June in any event. It likely would have been renewed but who knows.

$1.5m is delusional.

Yeah right. Vrabel's not getting fired and he's not quitting. Find a better source than the garbage DailyMail.

I really do not know why he would quit or be fired. The reporter probably violated ethical rules and could very well have been fired. There are no such rules for a head coach in the NFL. They are treated differently because they had different jobs with different rules. Patriots would be crazy to fire him now. If his life falls apart and he becomes a wreck then sure but that is not likely. Kids are grown. Maybe he can patch up with the wife or maybe not but either way that will come to a decision point soon and move on. The owners likely never asked him the direct questions because they knew they would not get an accurate answer. SO if he lied it is doubtful it would be held against him. Tomlin is a good coach but his expire date has passed. He is not the long term answer for the Patriots, Vrabel is.

Her husband is better looking than Mike Vrabel, probably a nicer person since not a cheater, was single, will never have CTE, and was probably excited to date and marry a prominent, semi-celebrity journalist.

She made a terrible judgment call.

Did she really have Vrabel’s child ?

Excited to date someone with a better job than himself is not an attractive trait in a mate. We normally call that person a gold digger.

Because his antics are a distraction. Nobody likes a distraction. Did they keep Gruden around?

I'm shocked it went this far. She is a piece of trash. Surely people knew this.

You're describing good *on paper*. Clearly no actual attraction, no bedroom spice, no romance, no actual love. She possibly didn't even want her husband's babies. Husband's ick factor is off the charts.

Sleuths have repeatedly been able to link her negative reporting to things that benefited Vrabel as a coach and harmed other coaches, players and teams. It calls into question the integrity of the league and its media apparatus.

The players already have the reputation of drug and steroid addicted thugs who abuse women, now the coaches can have the reputation of immoral scumbags who knock up other men's wives. Lovely optics.

Cake eaters are good with multiple partners. She looks happy in the early pictures with her husband. She just is a cheater.

These days if she'd wanted to be a single mom, nobody would have blinked or asked about the dad. She didn't have to get married. She was likely just going for next best in her opinion. Now she really has f'ed her life. Like Prince Charles did. Her kids are always going to know she has zero integrity.
