And apparently, that brings back bad memories for NFL draft expert Todd McShay.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDon\u2019t get me going on Sean Stellato,\u201d McShay began unexpectedly on the Week 16 edition of The Ringer\u2019s \u201cThe Ryen Russillo Podcast.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/12\/new-york-giants-quarterback-tommy-73869767.jpg\" alt=\"Tommy DeVito's agent Sean Stellato rocks green suit for Giants-Saints\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe fact that Sean Stellato\u2019s still in my life drives me crazy,\u201d he went on, acknowledging that this odd personal grudge is \u201can indictment on me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>McShay explained: \u201cSenior year in high school, we\u2019re 7-0, we\u2019re going to play Salem, Massachusetts. If we win this game, we kind of know we\u2019re going to win the last two games. If we win this game, we\u2019re going to go play in the [high school district\u2019s] Super Bowl.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The long-time analyst went on to reveal that his high school lost to Salem because of none other than Sean Stellato \u2014 who was the opposing quarterback on Salem. Not only that, but Stellato came back to finish off McShay\u2019s team a couple weeks later.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen we go on [and] win the next two games,\u201d the story continued. \u201cWe\u2019re getting word from our play-by-play guy \u2014 it\u2019s trickling down to the sidelines \u2014 that Salem is losing to Beverly\u2026 and if they lose this game, we\u2019re going to the Super Bowl again. Dreams are back on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Needless to say, Stellato channeled his inner Tommy DeVito and led a game-winning touchdown drive with no time remaining to oust McShay\u2019s school from the finals, according to the analyst. He has never forgiven him since.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Todd McShay: NFL Player Agent Sean Stellato Is \u2018Like This Rodent That Won\u2019t Go Away\u2019<\/strong><br \/>\nThe rant took a bit of a turn towards the end. Not only did McShay admit that he told Stellato to \u201cgo bleep himself\u201d when asked to comment on the aforementioned high school football tale in the agent\u2019s book, but he also got quite descriptive after that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think it\u2019s all going to go away, and then I\u2019m sitting on my couch a couple weeks ago [watching] Monday Night Football and I look at this guy and I\u2019m like \u2014 \u2018Holy s***, that\u2019s Sean Stellato.
