MAXWELL NO-SHOWS THE ROOT OF JAWS' FALSE RUMOR-MONGERING?
So why did ESPN's Ron Jaworski throw a big, fat, stinky Patriots rumor against the wall during a Friday afternoon visit with our pal Jody Mac of Sports Radio 950 in Philly?
Here's a theory. Jaws was smarting because Pats coach Bill Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady opted not to show up for Friday night's Maxwell Football Club awards ceremony. Belichick was slated to personally receive the Greasy Neale Pro Coach of the Year award and Brady was due to pick up the Bert Bell Pro Player of the Year prize.
Jaws, you see, is the President of the Maxwell Club. He announced Belichick and Brady as winners on January 3.
Indeed, a media insider expressed to us last month in response to Jaworski's inexplicable defense of videotaping an opponent's walk-through practice that Jaws' "I'm okay with it" stance was based on the reality that Jaworski couldn't and wouldn't criticize the Patriots for fear of Brady and/or Belichick not showing up for the ceremony. (There's been no hard proof that the Patriots videotaped the Rams' walk-through practice prior to Super Bowl XXXVI, or any other walk-through practice.)
Now that Belichick and Brady didn't show anyway, it'll be interesting to see whether Jaws changes his tune. As to Friday's suggestion by Jaws that receiver Randy Moss might still be available to the highest bidder based on rumors that the Pats were reneging on his verbal deal, Jaworski already might be showing an inclination to bash the Pats.
