Adam Schefter and Doug Gottlieb did some beefing online this week, and the latter exited worse for wear.
The short back-and-forth started after Schefter was called out for his report on Mike Vick’s talks over the Sacramento State job, with Gottlieb suggesting the ESPN insider was simply repeating what he was told by Vick’s agent without fact-checking first.
Schefter backed his report up with some numbers before going in on the Green Bay head coach’s dismal record in his first season.
“And Jeezus, Doug. A seven-game losing steak [sic] and last place in the Horizon League? Less time on social media and more time in the gym,” he wrote.

It’s fair to say that Doug isn’t the most-liked man around, and fans quite enjoyed Schefter’s clapback.
“Adam Schefter KO’ing Doug Gottlieb in Round 1 was the Christmas gift I didn’t know I needed,” Rivals.com’s Adam Gorney wrote.
“Damn, I’ve never seen Schefter reply to anyone on here. He must really hate Doug. Understandable,” another user added.
“BREAKING: Sources say Adam Schefter just put Gottlieb in a locker,” joked a third.

Doug Gottlieb Didn’t Back Down From Adam Schefter, But It Was Already Too Late
Gottlieb fired back at Schefter, vowing to turn the program around while advising the reporter to edit his sources.
“I’m in the gym daily. We will build a winner, and if we don’t, it won’t be for a lack of effort,” he wrote. “Meanwhile, edit your sources, everyone in college athletics understands your tweet was from someone who wants the world to believe a false statement.”
The above didn’t win him much ground, however.
Adam Schefter Drops Breaking News About Massive Movie Offer That Eagles’ Chiefs Of Security “Big Dom” DiSandro Received

Adam Schefter made a surprising revelation about Philadelphia Eagles chief of security, Dom DiSandro, A.K.A Big Dom.
DiSandro has been a favorite in Philly for a while, but he introduced himself to the rest of the NFL after he got into an altercation with San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw last season.
The security officer is apparently a bigger deal than we thought, as Schefter revealed he was offered a movie deal during an appearance on ‘The Pat McAfee Show’ on Monday.
According to Schefty, a production company wanted to make a film about Dom’s life, but he turned the opportunity (and a lot of money) down.
“A big dom movie would feed families,” someone suggested.

“i wanna know who offered that,” said another.
“Let me guess he saw Kevin James was gonna play him and he said no,” joked a third.
“He’s hiding s**t no amount of money will dig up,” a fan quipped.
“Big Dom is a legend,” a comment read.
“too many secrets could come …mob said.. NO Fn Way #FlyEaglesFly,” another read.
“I’m from Philly and couldn’t care less about Dom’s story. Jesus,” a fan claimed.
“It’s a boring ass idea lol,” another chimed in.

What Is Big Dom’s Job Description Exactly?
Dom takes care of a lot for the Eagles and received a promotion after his sideline dust-up last season, though it earned him a suspension from the NFL.
In addition to his duties as chief security officer, Big Dom is also a senior advisor to the Eagles GM and is responsible for educating players on the league’s personal conduct policy.
The Philly native, believed to be either 45 or 46, was recently appointed director of gameday coaching operations, which requires him to oversee head coach Nick Sirianni’s assistants during games.
Maybe we’d know his age if he agreed to have the movie done.
