The only one never to come out publicly in support of Trump. Get woke sheeple. MSM is feeding you a narrative.

They have a full front push with every one of their People no matter their expertise, pushing it as a "deep and beautiful" piece into the end of the Patriots

ESPN is trying to tear down the Patriots because they like Trump.

Only the blind or willfully ignorant can’t see this.

I agree. That shite unrealistically grinds my gears for reason too.

I don’t understand why a full day of coverage is needed about this.
ESPN is trying to make this bigger than what they seem to think. I’m not sure what they are shooting for here. It boils down to one guy always being around and Brady changing as he gets older. Big fricking deal.
I also wouldn’t shocked if Brady and Gutierrez were fricking each other. But again, I don’t care what two grown men do behind closed doors. It’s not my concern.
With that said, these people in charge that green light all day coverage on shite like this have to be fricked in the head. It’s amazing to me that they think this is something that America will care about. Just more garbage they force down your throat.

But would you bake them a cake?

I read as much as I cared too, and here's my take.
-Leading off an article with the only Patriots source in the building saying you're full of shite is interesting.
-Saying, without a doubt, Brady was mad at McDaniels because of Belichick/Kraft is just weird, especially since he's been seen celebrating multiple times this season after victories with McDaniels.
-Alex is a weird dude, and I definitely could see some of the younger WRs thinking it may help them out to do the TB12 Method. I also could see Brady/Belichick having a heated convo after Alex was banned from Gillette.
That being said, Cooks/Hogan/White/Lewis all didn't have anything to do with the TB12 Method and have been prominently featured in the pass game within the last 12 calendar months.
-Acting like Bill was drafting the heir apparent in Jimmy G is laughable. The Pats have consistently drafted 2nd to 4th round QBs throughout Brady's career there.
-The entire piece reeks of a reporter finding out about a disagreement behind closed doors and massively blowing it out of proportion.

I thought the story was well done
However, I don’t quite understand the need to pump it up across platforms. Seems a bit sensational, no?
But I do think it’s funny some (most?) of the local Boston folks immediately called the article BS with the one guy who leaked it initially acting like he was a PR mule for the Patriots.
Are they doing so because they are naive or don’t want to risk losing access? I just thought it was funny the dude has “sources” telling him about a hit piece. I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone trying to get a “scoop” about an article written
Perhaps it was just done by Kraft/Brady and their reps trying to get ahead of it
Either way, Brady is painted as the villain while, surprisingly, Belicheck is the victim

Also, Twitter guy in OP claimed ESPN reported Brady asked Kraft for Jimmy G Trade and that it was forced
Article says nothing about that, so who’s lying? Pats leaked leaked false info to him to play victim card before story published...or ESPN editied the story?

From what I understand, ESPN has a well documented article that didn't match the hype other outlets suggested it would be. Does that pretty much sum things up?

Touchy subject, I see.

What a joke "story dropping tomorrow". This is always the biggest hint st nothing. This is 2017 not 1995 if you have a real story you release it. No need to wait for the printing presses
You clearly know nothing about news and what goes on inside a press room.
You schedule ‘features’ which is what this is. It is timely, but not so timely that it needs to be sent out ASAP without proper editing.
Breaking news is the only thing you send out when you have it. You gain nothing by randomly dropping a story like this. The click amount will be monumentally larger by scheduling it.

Just read story.. as a patriots hater i find it very odd. The whole thing was just kind of weird. Bradys trainer seems like a bad person for Tom to be around though who isnt in it for Toms best interest. I can see why belichek didnt want him around. It just seems to me that as tom nears the end of his career he doesnt want to face the fact that he is getting older and going to have to give it up, and believes he can play forever. Brady is one of the best qbs we have ever seen.... but i also believe he would have never won all those superbowls without belichek. Bill knows the reality, and knew that jimmy G was the future and Toms time is closing. Brady just couldnt accept the facts and used his legend figure to push jimmy out.

You're wrong on Tom being in denial and not facing facts. When asked about Eli's benching, he said something to the effect of how you really don't get fairy tale endings in sports and it almost always ends ugly for old players. So, he knows what's up. But, I do agree with you to the extent that he anticipated an awkward QB competition/benching, he may have put on the power move.
