Not sure how reliable this source is but there is a ton of smoke out there that Mayo is an arrogant douchebag that has already broken the locker room. [Reply]
The nfls biggest issue has always been nepotism and trees. Mayo didn’t get hired because he was black, it was because he was the best available left on a rotten tree. Because bellichick by the end surrounded his staff with tree failures (like Patricia, judge) or his sons. Who else in that rotten tree are you going to elevate? [Reply]

This is the same situation we’ve seen pop up consistently with any patriot tree stooge not named bellichick
This is where I’m at. He’d be a terrible head coach no matter what franchise he was gifted. [Reply]

Normal people might not "talk" about it but it has become a normal part of normal people's days. [Reply]
