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.

    Zero2Cool (21h) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
    Zero2Cool (21h) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
    Zero2Cool (21h) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.

    dfosterf (21h) : Answer to your question is yes, it's a Thursday, will be the Chiefs aga

    dfosterf (22h) : In my city, they are playing the nimby game, in order to keep some railroad tracks vs. 2 professional sports teams and a concert venue.
    dfosterf (22h) : And/Or a city council, of which I haven't seen a good one in a very long time
    dfosterf (23h) : That sounds like a Mayor, not a city.

    buckeyepackfan (26-Mar) : Packers 1 of 3 teams to vote no on new kickoff rule.
    Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : Packers sign another Kicker
    dfosterf (26-Mar) : Lengthy explanation at PFF if you click the link
    dfosterf (26-Mar) : Kickoff rules officially changed.ngthy explan

    Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Fining them is the goal, per the people who made the rule anyway.
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
    beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
    beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
    beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
    Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
    Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Swivel hip drop is banned
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : The hip drop enforcement will be in the form of fines, etc. Not flags
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : A major foul will be enforced on the offense if there are offsetting penalties in a change of possession situation
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Teams will receive a 3rd challenge if 1 was successful. Previously, it took 2
