Not normal behavior for work colleagues. Definitely not normal behavior for two married folks.


I don’t know.

I’d just expect to see more than a hug and sitting around a pool area not touching each other if an affair was going on, unless they are some of the most low key cheaters out there.

Could also just be a slow release of pictures by the NY Post to embarrass Vrabel/Russini after getting them to respond saying it was nothing.

Maybe there’s more going on, but that hand hold / hug didn’t look like much of anything.


The hand holding photo is the most incriminating one IMO.

A quick hug as a greeting between friends is pretty normal and innocent. Holding hands isn't the norm though and definitely comes off as suspect.

Could be something, could be nothing.

Could be close friends, I hug my friend’s wives when saying hello/goodbye.

Could be swingers, which technically falls under the nothing category.

Could be open marriage, which again is technically nothing.

Vrabel looks so smug so I’m like the masses that click on story hoping for train wreck. I am no better than thee.

It’s a photo. It could have been a quick hand hold to hug move that lasted all of a second for all we know.

The only thing weird about the photo, IMO, is they look to be alone on a roof top.

But even that could be explained if Russini or Vrabel were on a phone call and one went to find the other since they are long time friends.

could be nothing but the interlocking is strange behavior not to mention you factor in Russini past history with all those rumors in Washington with Sean McVay, Bruce Allen, and Scot McCloughan.

Dianna Russini's voice is like nails on a chalkboard.

In terms of public perception, Dianna is screwed no matter what

Agreed. Any women I’ve ever interlocked fingers with like that is because we’ve shagged

I never watch any pre-game or halftime shows so I had no idea who this broad was until this thread.

The funny part is that she also has a reputation of getting half of her reporting wrong so she either sucks or she sucks.

Doesn’t look good for Vrabel especially knowing Dianna Russini’s reputation for sleeping around with NFL coaches.


I keep seeing this take about Russini and I’m not trying to defend her but I’ve never heard of this regarding her.

Well it’s more like they graduated from being an amateur cleat chaser to a professional.

Wife of former Redskins GM Scot McCloughan accused Russini about 10 years ago of blowing him to get scoops.

Also been seeing a story making the rounds Russini and former ESPN reporter Britt McHenry once got in a fight around the same time because they were both “dating” then-Redskins assistant Sean McVay and neither woman knew.

Damn, McHenry was much better than this hawk-faced broad.

I always felt bad for her husband because it’s long been rumored in NFL circles that she’s fricked a ton of coaches and front office people for scoops.


Why? He knew / heard who she was when they got married less than 5 years ago. It’s not like they got married, then she got her job and the rumors started.

Idk Vrabel history, but atleast his wife married him 25 years ago. She might not have known he would be like this.

Or maybe neither one of their spouses care, just keep bringing in the money….

FYI I’m not saying either one of them cheated, I’m just saying if they did.
