I also remember Manish claiming that Joe Douglas was given significant limitations on FA spending two years ago... only to be refuted by several other beat reporters.
Wait a second. Is that you Manish? Just asking because you have been very busy compiling all of the most embarrassing top 10 lists in Jets history over the past couple of months, and now you're re-posting a tweet from the one journalist who has a personal axe to grind with the Jets.
I think it has been pretty well documented(regardless of this specific assertion) that Manish has more then one "screw loose". When your media peers loathe you - that is a powerful statement
I thought this was a Mehta free zone now? Why are people still posting about him? Can I propose a short ban for anyone posting anything with Mehta as the source?
Even if true, and I imagine it is, it is a non story. Any team will have an operational budget that is dictated by someone. And someone has to release funds to the team to spend from time to time. I cant imagine many billionaire owners personally release funds to clubs. It doesn't mean they aren't in control ultimately. This guy isn't running the team, or controlling what is spent on whom. He's just controlling the cash flow out of (and checking the into presumably) the Johnsons' accounts and balancing the books. Its a typical shit-stirring troll job from a totally discredited source whose sole recourse now is to pop his head over the parapet every so often and take blind pot shots at the Jets.
Manish sucks but I don't doubt that report. Woody Johnson is a trust fund kid, the money is not really something he earned. It makes sense that his little pet projects have to go through the people that manage his trust fund
Spot on! And yet ... Unfortunately once someone made up their mind, no matter how discredited the source is, and even if the info not worth shit it is defecated on, if it happens to support your argument, you go with it. Come guys, let's not take our info from Mehta Sports. Where we are busting your kids balls.
relax Nancy. I haven't seen anyone discredit the report yet anyway and my mind isn't made up. I hope its not true
