Who is the "Deep Throat" leaking rumors to the media?

vermonator · 2015-10-30T07:36:45-07:00

This has been going on since Nolan was hired, and maybe as early as the Mooch years. My thinking is that it's somebody from the top. Kawakami thinks it's Jed, but as I said, it's been going on way before he was in charge. Maybe it's just different disgruntled players throughout the years, but why is it always happening here, and seldom ever from other locker rooms around the league? Is this organization so petty, that rumors and leaks are that common? Who do you think it is?

My guess would be Tim Allen.

Marathe. Go back to when the Harbaugh rumors began and notice that it was shortly after when he was promoted to team president. As someone that is basically everywhere in the organization, he has access to coaches, players, management...etc and has been around the team since like 2003.

The locker room, the coaches box, at practice, he gets around.

Honestly ...I suspected it was Jimmy T all these years, he never lost his Job and survived the Singletary, Nolan and Harbaugh era's unscathed and was always the last man standing after each coaching change , plus whoever was going to be hired this season as head coach, was going to have Jimmy T forced on them as their DC??

personally I suspected he was hired as a reward for repeatedly "running to the boss" to snitch, or else leaking internal team issues to the media, but this year I don't think it's him, somebody else is leaking info to Glazer, Deion and other media personalities ...Just my 2 cents, I could be wrong

The way I look at it, who has consistently had power in the organization?

Marathe was John York's right hand man, he is Jed's right hand man and his power and control has grown substantially over the years.

After he beat out Gideon Yu(Harbaugh supporter) for president, the leaks and rumors about Harbaugh started to fly. Coincidence? Maybe. But he'd be my choice.
