I gather from this quote here ..."It wasn’t very long or well written, just a few things that I was told from those “sources.” I was told that if I put out some misinformation in the rumors that I will also be given real information as well. They said that teams do have people reading fan sites (as do reporters) to see if any of the rumors have validity. I agreed, hell, what did I have to lose I was a radio guy getting inside information while using it on my sports talk show."

that Joe didn't know the real versus false information. You better believe that scouts and other personnel view these kinds of forums and fan blogs on a regular basis. And I know several newspaper writers and their editors who frequent this little place on the interGoogle.

If they were to find someone who was always right, what good would that do the source? The NFL is a cut-throat business where smokescreens are widely accepted as commonplace.



I would much rather have 25% real information with the rest being fluffy bull unicorns than have nothing at all.

When are we going to get some smoke blown up our asses anyway? It's been pretty boring lately around, and I'm running out of ways to call Texas a dumbass.

I read the Press Gazette. I read JSOnline. I read other media sources. They do what they do. At times it can get a little stagnate. There is only so much they can say no matter who the writer is.

I go to other sources blogs and message boards and what not. It is not as rigid. It is as I said interesting. I know how to take comments with a grain of salt.

There are journalist I would not believe or trust no matter what. That is not Joe. That is some bigger names people.
