Top NFL reporter breaks silence on Dianna Russini, Mike Vrabel drama

While the tabloids have been all over the Mike Vrabel and Dianna Russini affair, we have not heard much from the peers of the New England Patriots head coach and former NFL insider. But top NFL reporter Ian Rapoport has now weighed in on the controversy in an episode of the Between the Tackles podcast. The NFL Network reporter lamented the fact that all of this has played out so publicly, but he does not blame the media one bit for the way the controversy has been covered.

“Watching it play out in public has been really sad,” he said. “I’ve seen this in other walks of life and in other sort of celebrities or important people. I’ve never really seen it with people that I know.

And it’s really different and not good and sad, and just all around. ” “I don’t even blame the media, I really don’t, because the public thirst is there… they’re not getting people interested. People are already interested.

They’re feeding the beast. That happens in our world. ” The saddest part about this whole drama is the embarrassment the families — and more specifically, the spouses — of Russini and Vrabel must be feeling since the pair were first spotted together at a resort in Arizona , which kicked off the controversy.
