Are you kidding?! Dude hit GOLD!!! Every sports talk radio show and sports TV show has been running with this for 2 days - IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PLAYOFFS!!!! This is the freaking Holy Grail!!! If you're looking for Homer journalists in the locker room, you need to go to small market teams like New Orleans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Dierking Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 He is doing his job-His job foremost is to provide content that sells papers. This kind of stuff sells papers and gives him a name (look what it did for Ciminini). These guys eat too. Anonymous quotes, while unfortunate, are a part of the business. But it does cast some doubt to their intended source and agenda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HessStation Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Both. Comes with the territory. Why anyone would want to do what he does for a living I think says something about the individual however he is just doing his job. Even though I don't respect the job. So all in all, whatever really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darrellegivesmeaboner#24 Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 This is the man's job. He is a reporter, he looks better when he writes stories that spark debate, interest, and sell newspapers. The person(s) who gave Manish Mehta the quotes are the real troublemakers.

Scott Dierking Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 In the past if there were any references of the Jets having a "deep throat" on the team, fingers would have pointed directly at Sanchez. In this case, it does not seem possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharrow Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 My only problem was that he wasn't clear about how many sources he was using, and how many and which were saying what. The way some people are representing it here on JN makes it seem like every quote is a different person, and every person quoted agrees with every other quote. Not like there was 1 quote questioning his work ethic, one quote saying he isn't improving, two quotes excusing his poor performance because off pass protection and the situations he was put in, two quotes saying he was mentally overwhelmed, two quotes saying the team babies him, and two quotes saying they'd prefer Peyton. I mean, those quotes say different things. And for all we know, he could have gotten multiple quotes from a significantly smaller number of people. I'm guessing there was a fair consensus that the team would be better with Manning, which is obvious. That doesn't mean those same people have all given up on Sanchez, or question his work ethic, ability, or mental toughness. The person who is quotes on one thing may not agree with the person who is quoted on another thing. We don't really know. If all the people quoted disagree among and about those quotes, then it has a much less powerful message; so I can see why the people on one side of the argument want to group them all together and make them seem like one solidified group; but it seems a little disingenuous to me.

SMC Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Excellent points, Sharrow and JVOR. Mehta was doing his job and he's not a Jets PR person. If he has to cause trouble, so be it. But like Sharrow said, his use of annonymous sources did not give an accurate accounting of how many people spoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
