For some reason, Mike Vrabel and his wife were invited to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding.
Why? I have no idea. Frankly, it seems like everyone was invited to this thing. At this point, I’m a little offended I wasn’t invited. It seems like the entire planet was in attendance Friday at Madison Square Garden. I can’t even imagine the bill. Makes me queasy just to think about.
Anyway, back to Vrabel …
He was out and about with his wife, Jen, for the first real time since the Dianna Russini scandal erupted in the spring, and it was … weird. Awkward. Uncomfortable?
SPORTS WORLD TURNS OUT FOR TRAVIS KELCE AND TAYLOR SWIFT’S MADISON SQUARE GARDEN WEDDING FESTIVITIES
Yeah, let’s go with uncomfortable.
One move in particular really grabbed the internet’s attention. As the two were on the way to the ceremony, Vrabel entered their car first and did NOT hold the door for Jen. Just opened the door and dove right in on his own, leaving his wife to fend for herself behind him.
It looks completely innocuous at first glance, but … folks noticed. And buddy, they weren’t thrilled:
Mike Vrabel had a tough spring, to say the least
I could go on and on. Seriously, it’s a bloodbath right now. Folks are fired up over this disgusting breach of etiquette.
It makes sense, if you ask me. Mike Vrabel is coming off maybe the worst offseason of all time, and everyone is on high alert right now.

In March, the hotel pictures with former Athletic NFL insider Dianna Russini leaked, and everything started to crumble.
Russini was canned. Vrabel entered rehab. The New York Times dropped a 5,000 word story absolutely ripping its former employee. Just last week, the bodycam footage leaked from a Russini traffic stop earlier this year, and it was maybe the most embarrassing thing I’ve ever seen.

It’s just been one thing after another for these two, and I fear it’s only gonna get worse from here. The Times still hasn’t released its finding from the investigation into Russini. That’s coming, folks. It ain’t gonna be good.

Vrabel, meanwhile, has really only spoken a handful of times since the story broke. That’s going to change in about three weeks when training camp starts and he’s in front of the media every single day.

Perhaps some simple PR training is needed before that? If this video if any indication, it probably wouldn’t hurt.
Always hold the door for your lady, fellas. That’s Gentleman 101 stuff.
