If you want to read all 1,600-plus words, you can, but here's the abridged version.
Sanchez went out on New Year's Eve. Young lady talked to Sanchez. Sanchez says, "You're 17." She tells him 17-year-olds can legally have relationships with adults in New York. The two become friends. They text. They date. They have somewhat of a relationship. Then it ends.
People can criticize a 24-year-old millionaire quarterback for having relationships with 17-year-olds all they want, but it's not illegal, and it's not even as weird as Rex Ryan's off-field hobbies.
It's the same site, remember, that last month tried to stir up Sanchez's sexual assault allegations from 2006, so maybe there's a grudge there. Either way, this one fails to even register on the controversy meter.
Will this saga eventually fall in line with NESN.com's Top 10 most embarrassing New York sports moments of the last decade?

"I think [SEC commissioner Mike Slive] originally wanted to [suspend me] 10 [games]. But when he looked at the schedule, he saw that I have to go to Rupp and the O-Dome. He decided to settle for just eight and make me go to those two places."
