but really who could keep neil away from a microphone for 3 years

wit-craft:

honestly as funny as the idea of neil and andrew purposely playing up a “rivalry” to fuck w the press I genuinely think we’re underutilizing the concept of neil just having. no idea. he’s just here for the game?? he doesn’t keep track of dumb gossip about who hates who??

and meanwhile the media is going oh man minyard and josten! they hate each other!! whenever they’re asked about on another in interviews neil always has something bitchy to say. andrew straight up says he hates him (andrew knows what they think of course he just doesn’t care enough to mention it). but nobody actually uses the term “"rivalry”“ directly to neil they’re just ask stuff like “what do you think of andrew”

then like three years in a reporter finally goes “so, considering your well-known rivalry w andrew minyard—” and he’s just like my WHAT.
