Who else misses the boring, no-drama days of @JoeBiden? No chaos. No circus. No daily embarrassment. Just quiet competence from a president who actually knew how to do the job.

Game 7@game7__·
Paige Shiver literally did nothing wrong. Sherrone Moore should never work in college sports again. The University of Michigan is disgusting and deserves to be strongly penalized. Michigan wants you to believe it acted quickly. Its official statement after firing head football coach Sherrone Moore on December 10, 2025, said the university "terminated Sherrone Moore promptly upon discovering his undisclosed workplace relationship with a direct report." The word "promptly" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence, because according to the woman on the other side of that relationship, there was nothing to discover. Everyone already knew. Paige Shiver sat down with ABC News for her first television interview since Moore's sentencing, and the picture she painted on Good Morning America is one of a young woman who was failed at every level by the institution that employed her. Shiver, who is 32 years old, has Pompe disease, a rare and progressive disorder that weakens muscles and affects the heart and respiratory system. She joined the Michigan football program in late 2021, starting as an intern before moving into a recruiting and football operations coordinator role. By January 2022, according to Shiver, her relationship with Moore had become romantic. By February 2024, she had been promoted to executive assistant to the head coach, with her salary jumping from $58,025 to $90,000. And throughout that entire stretch, she says, the people around her knew exactly what was happening. "They knew the things that he was doing to me and no one did anything about it because they cared more about winning football games, not having another scandal, and trying to protect the head coach," Shiver told ABC News. That is not the statement of someone who was hiding. That is the statement of someone who was visible the entire time and watched the institution around her choose football over her safety. Shiver described the relationship as one that started consensually but became something she could not escape. She told GMA that Moore "had complete control over me, over my emotions, over my career, and he knew that, and he used it against me." She said Moore would threaten suicide every time she tried to end the relationship. She said senior coaches on staff told her to console Moore "to calm him down" when he was upset, sometimes during game halftimes. She was not just in a relationship with a coach who would eventually run the entire program. She was being used as an emotional management tool by the coaching staff, and nobody in a position of authority at Michigan thought that was a problem worth addressing. In May 2022, Shiver became pregnant. Her doctors told her that carrying the pregnancy to term would not be safe because of her Pompe disease. She has said she wanted to keep the baby. Moore, according to Shiver, encouraged the abortion. She had the procedure in July 2022. That was nearly three and a half years before Michigan claims it "discovered" the relationship. Michigan received a warning about Moore's behavior with women in the fall of 2024, during his first season as head coach. Reports indicate that university officials were alerted to concerning social media interactions Moore had with women. The university reportedly determined those interactions were not criminal and did not constitute sexual harassment, but acknowledged they showed poor judgment. That was the moment to look harder. That was the moment to ask whether the head coach who was displaying poor judgment with women online might also be displaying poor judgment with the woman who sat outside his office every day. Michigan chose not to ask that question. By October 2025, the university's human resources department did interview Shiver about the relationship. Shiver has acknowledged that she denied it during that interview. That denial does not absolve Michigan. It confirms that the university had enough information to conduct an HR investigation but chose to rely on a single interview with a subordinate who was, by her own account, under the complete control of the man she was being asked about. If the relationship was the "open secret" Shiver describes, and if senior coaches were actively involving her in Moore's emotional management, then the university had access to corroborating witnesses it apparently never spoke to, or spoke to and ignored. Michigan eventually fired Moore on December 10, 2025. What happened next tells you everything about who was protected and who was not. On the same day he was fired, Moore went to Shiver's apartment. According to police, he forced his way inside, grabbed butter knives and scissors, and threatened to kill himself. Shiver told ABC News she feared for her life and asked him repeatedly to leave. He blamed her for his firing. He was arrested that evening and charged with third-degree home invasion, stalking, and breaking and entering. Those charges were later reduced through a plea deal. In March 2026, Moore pleaded no contest to two misdemeanors: malicious use of a telecommunications device in a domestic context and trespassing. On April 14, 2026, he was sentenced to 18 months of probation and a $1,000 fine. The judge barred him from using drugs or alcohol, possessing firearms, or having any contact with Shiver, and ordered him to continue counseling. Eighteen months of probation. A thousand-dollar fine. For a man who, according to police, forced his way into a woman's home and threatened violence on the same day he was fired. The felony home invasion charge was dropped. The stalking charge was dropped. The breaking and entering charge was dropped. What remained were two misdemeanors and a sentence that will not interrupt Moore's life in any meaningful way. Judge Cedric Simpson told Moore during sentencing: "The person, quite frankly, Mr. Moore, that is saving you from the full wrath of this court is the one you betrayed," referring to Moore's wife Kelli, whose impact letter the judge said "certainly had the biggest impact" on his decision. Even the sentencing was about Moore's wife. Not about the woman he allegedly terrorized in her own apartment. Now look at what happened to Paige Shiver. She lost her job. She lost her privacy. Her name was dragged through every sports media outlet in the country. She has a progressive disease that affects her ability to work and live independently. She had an abortion she did not want because her body could not safely carry a pregnancy. She was used as an emotional handler by a coaching staff that knew about her relationship with the head coach. And the institution that employed her, the one that claims it acted "promptly," did not protect her at any point during the nearly four years this was happening. Michigan's statement said Moore's "conduct violated university policy, and we expect more from our leaders." That sentence is written as though the university had no role in what happened. As though it was a passive observer. As though the head coach of the football program having a years-long relationship with his direct report, a relationship that multiple staff members allegedly knew about, is something that just happened to the university rather than something the university allowed to happen. Shiver's attorneys have described what happened as a "systemic failure" that "created and enabled a hostile environment." That language is strong, but the facts support it. A head coach entered a relationship with a subordinate. That subordinate became pregnant and had an abortion. Senior coaches used her to manage the head coach's emotions. The university was warned about the coach's behavior with women. The university conducted an HR investigation and accepted a denial from the subordinate without apparently pursuing other witnesses. And when the coach was finally fired, he went to her home and police had to be called. At no point in that sequence did the University of Michigan protect Paige Shiver. At no point did anyone in a position of authority intervene on behalf of a 32-year-old woman with a serious medical condition who was, by her account, trapped in a relationship with one of the most powerful people in her workplace, a man who became the most powerful when he was named head coach in January 2024. The university protected its football program. It protected its brand. And when the situation became impossible to ignore, it fired the coach, issued a statement, and moved on. Paige Shiver did not move on. She is the one sitting in front of a camera on Good Morning America, telling the country what happened to her. She is the one whose medical history is now public. She is the one whose name will be permanently attached to this story. And she is the one who, according to every account that has been made public, was the person with the least power in every room she walked into during her time at Michigan. Moore had the title and the power. Michigan had the resources and the responsibility to intervene. Shiver was the subordinate with a rare disease who was told to go calm down her boss during halftime. The people with power chose not to act until it was too late, and the person without power is the one still paying for it. Michigan wants credit for firing Moore promptly. It does not deserve credit for anything. It deserves scrutiny for every month between January 2022 and December 2025 when Paige Shiver was inside that building, and the institution that was supposed to protect its employees chose to look the other way.

So gross that Mike Vrabel has to miss the NFL Draft while Dianna Russini skips away with no punishment. Very typical though. Page Six just published photographs of Mike Vrabel and Dianna Russini kissing at a bar in New York City in March 2020. The photos, taken in the early hours of March 11, 2020, show the two of them sitting close together at a dimly lit bar, leaning into each other, and appearing to share a kiss. An eyewitness told Page Six: "They were kissing and they were all over each other." The witness also noted: "He had a ring on." A second eyewitness described the scene: "They were having a glorious time. They were giving each other pecks, a bunch of pecks constantly." At the time of those photos, Vrabel was head coach of the Tennessee Titans and had been married to his wife Jen since 1999. Russini was covering the NFL for ESPN and was not yet married. She married Kevin Goldschmidt approximately six months later, in September 2020. These photos change everything about this story. When the Arizona resort photos were published on April 7, Vrabel called the interaction "completely innocent" and said "any suggestion otherwise is laughable." Russini said the photos "don't represent the group of six people who were hanging out during the day." Both framed the Sedona meeting as an isolated, innocent encounter between a reporter and a source that happened to get photographed in an unflattering way. The 2020 kissing photos make that framing unsustainable. These are not photos of a journalist and a source meeting professionally. These are photos of two people kissing in a bar six years before the resort photos, while one of them was married and the other was covering his team for a national sports network. Whatever this relationship was, it was not new in March 2026. It dates back at least six years. The timing of these photos also raises questions about Vrabel's decision to seek counseling. Page Six reportedly contacted Vrabel on Wednesday afternoon seeking comment on the 2020 photos. He did not respond to the Post. Hours later, he announced through ESPN that he would miss Day 3 of the NFL Draft to seek counseling. Whether those events are connected is something only Vrabel knows, but the timing has not gone unnoticed. Russini's silence, which was already conspicuous, is now deafening. She resigned from The Athletic on April 14 after an investigation was launched into the nature of her relationship with Vrabel and whether she had been honest with her employer about it. Her resignation letter, posted on X, contained no apology and no acknowledgment of wrongdoing. She wrote that she "stands behind every story I have ever published." She described the scrutiny as "self-feeding speculation that is simply unmoored from the facts." The 2020 photos suggest the speculation was not unmoored from anything. The speculation was pointing in exactly the right direction. Russini covered the Tennessee Titans for ESPN during Vrabel's entire six-season tenure as head coach from 2018 to 2023. The kissing photos are from March 2020, which places them squarely in the middle of that coverage window. Every story Russini filed about the Titans during that period, every piece of insider information she reported, every source she cited now exists under a shadow that cannot be explained away. The question that hung over her reporting after the Arizona photos is now louder than ever: was her access to Vrabel's teams the product of professional journalism, or was it the product of a personal relationship with the head coach? The "group of six" defense is gone. The "completely innocent" defense is gone. The framing of the Sedona trip as a one-time meeting between a reporter and a source is gone. What remains are photos of two people kissing in a bar in 2020, photos of the same two people holding hands, hugging, and sitting in a hot tub at a resort in 2026, new photos of them having breakfast alone at that resort, three eyewitnesses who said they did not see anyone else with them in Sedona, and a journalist who resigned before her employer could finish investigating her. Some on social media have noted that Russini's first son, born in August 2021, is named Michael, and have attempted to connect that to the 2020 photos. That speculation is baseless. The timeline alone debunks it. March 2020 to August 2021 is approximately 17 months, far longer than a pregnancy. The name Michael is one of the most common names in the country, and drawing conclusions from a first name is irresponsible. Russini's children are private citizens who had no say in any of this, and they should be left out of it entirely. What is part of this story is the professional conduct of a journalist who was photographed kissing the head coach she was covering two years into her beat assignment, who then continued covering him for three more years, who ended up covering his new team after he was hired by the Patriots, who was photographed with him again at a luxury resort, who could not produce evidence for her explanation, who resigned before an investigation could conclude, and who has said nothing publicly beyond a resignation letter that blamed the media for covering a story the media had every right to cover. Vrabel has taken accountability at every step. He addressed his family. He addressed his team. He addressed the media. He committed to counseling. He is missing the NFL Draft. He has done more than any football coach has ever been asked to do in response to a personal situation, and he may not have done anything wrong. Russini has taken none. And with each new set of photos that surfaces, the gap between the accountability Vrabel has shown and the accountability Russini has refused to show gets wider. The 2020 photos are the story now. Not because they prove wrongdoing. Not because they confirm anything about anyone's personal life. But because they prove that the relationship between Vrabel and Russini was not what either of them described it as when the Arizona photos were published. They both had a chance to be honest about the nature of their relationship. Vrabel called it "completely innocent." Russini called it a "group of six" hangout. The photos from a New York City bar six years earlier tell a different story.
