    Apparently it was said on Boomer & Gio this morning that Manish had his NFL credentials revoked. Anyone hear the same?

    I heard the same. And now that I think about it he hasn’t been on any of those zoom press conferences that other writers have posted screengrabs of. This sounds like something he would whine about incessantly but he’s probably so embarrassed that he wanted to sweep it under the rug.

    He did just Tweet an article link out and all of the comments are appropriately asking if he had his credentials stripped.

    I don’t think “axed“ is the right term for it because he didn’t get fired from the daily news, it looks like he just got his credential revoked. I love it, and you can tell it bothers him because he hasn’t even mentioned it. He doesn’t want it to be known. Would be a shame if this blew up all over Twitter today…

    Fair on the word axe. Poor choice on my part. In any case, the NFL (likely Jets driven I assume) had enough of his shtick.

    I would assume that the whole “create a burner Twitter account pretending to be the head coach using a burner account named after his son“ thing played into their decision…

    Having the NFL pull your media credentials is about the worst thing that could happen professionally. He'd be of no use to the Daily News. They'd have to have someone else there. Expect to see movie reviews from Manish.

    TOTJ gives him a platform with the "Midweek With Manish" segment.

    Can anyone confirm this? If so, it is about damn time. What a hack. I don't see him at Jets practice today.

    I wonder how long the revocation is for? If its for a couple of weeks he might keep his job, longer and he could be out the door.

    Personally, I hope its for life!

    Per sources: you don’t need NFL credentials to fabricate the usual pro-Darnold (Mon, Wed, Fri) or anti-Gase (Tue, Thu, Sat) stories.

    He's been doing a mid week report of Play Like a Jet Podcast for months but has not been doing it since 8/13. Man I hope this is the first step in him being fired from the Daily News. I hope he winds up reporting high school girls lacrosse in Indiana. He is a low life scum bag lying piece of garbage. And Lupica vouched for him so what does that tell you. Ha Ha

    This sounds like a story Manish would make up about someone else:)
