Mark Sanchez unfollows all the Jets beat writers on twitter

A revealing story broke late last night by Manish Mehta on how the Jets organization REALLY feels about Mark Sanchez.  I called the people who spoke anonymously cowards, and one Jets player shared my view but something that I overlooked the first time I read the article was Mark Sanchez un-followed every single New York Beat writer.  (I have a twitter list of them listed here).

I went to his account and it is true.  The only Jets media person Mark is still following is @JeaneaCoakley from SNY.

A couple weeks ago, Sanchez dismissed a report that he was being coddled. His teammates disagreed.

 

“They don’t want to be truthful with him,” one prominent player said of the way that the organization has handled Sanchez. “They treat him like a baby instead of a man. He goes in a hole when someone tells him the truth.”

 

A Jets spokesman declined to make Sanchez available for this story. A source close to the team pointed out that Sanchez’s inability to handle mounting criticism prompted him to unfollow every Jets beat writer on Twitter earlier this season.

 

“So that should tell you everything,” the source said. “He just doesn’t have the mental toughness to be great… especially in New York.”
