Ken Schroy Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 According to many including Mike Francessa everyone knows it. Manish and Pettine are close and have been for years. Pettine isn't looking good to me if this is true. I'm no fan of fat Mike either, but I believe him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aec4 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Manish makes up source in his sleep. Always has, always was. He needed to make sure The Daily News hired a worse reporter than Cimini, and is accomplishing it well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt39 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Manish has ties to Pettine predating the Jets. Could be a reason he got the Jets gig out of nowhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SenorGato Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 What is this Manish/Pettine long term relationship based on? At what point in their histories did they meet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernJet Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 What is this Manish/Pettine long term relationship based on? At what point in their histories did they meet? Pettine was Rex's'show beard' in Baltimore. Pettine would go buy high end shoes for Rex's foot fetish videos. Manish was a shoe salesman at Nordstrom's. Manish and Pettines stuck up a friendship then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Dierking Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 It was nice knowing you Mike. In most organizations this kind of stuff will get you fired right away. With the Jets, it gets you an extension offer. Rex's loyalties and failure to hold people accountable is a huge failure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's it. yeah tbh somewhere around the, no more captains thing, is where the guy lost me. Due to his own enormous mistake by making Holmes one, everyone else would be punished...even the guys like Mangold or Moore who actually deserved it.

Chadcurtis Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 If Pettine is hoping for a head coaching job down the road, why would leak all this info to the media? Other front offices find out about this stuff. Why would he hurt his reputation? I'm not saying he's not the guy, but what is he thinking? He'll have to answer to these accusations down the road. Not a smart move on his behalf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the Daily News, just him Fire Mehta As much as they might like to, they probably cant. The press union and writers associations will throw a fit if one of their own is prohibited from attending. Plus you dont run and hide from the guy who wrote a bad story about your organization. If they did, no media would be allowed there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirlancemehlot Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 I have some inside info. Im Related to someone in the organization. Pettine is the leak. He's been the leak for a long time. He is mr unnamed source and pretty much everyone frm the top to the players know it. The question is, are his leaks really his words? Or is he the guy with just enough distance to push the jets agenda without raising eyebrows? Not all leaks are really leaks. Some are just unofficial press releases.

kay_gee Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Mehta has no responsibility to do the Jets any favors. That said, it's f*cking sports journalism. He's not rooting out government corruption or corporate abuses of power, it's the goddamned New York Jets. There is absolutely no excuse for this many articles with unnamed "sources."

Florham Park is a rats nest filled with low-character finger-pointers with unconscionably inflated opinions of their contributions to NFL football teams.

Francesa reported yest that this has been well known for quite some time yet no one from the media asked Rex about it during his presser. Just another layer to this teams dysfunctional chemistry from top to bottom. Blow it up. Francesa also feels Rex , Tanny and Sanchez are given one more year but that the OC and all the Assistants should be let go. Tstays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
