[QUOTE="NOMOFO, post: 574442, member: 9687"] Totally missing my point. All I am saying is that he could be, and probably is, often getting info from the same few guys. It would mean more to me if I knew it wasn't the same few guys. Also, why do I care what some anonymous source says when I can't even decide for myself if I even respect the source? I remember Andrew Brandt talking about this a few years ago. Somebody asked him why he wanted to get into reporting and sports media and he said just that. He said..."I often read entire articles, written by somebody else, using all information I provided - so why not just give it first hand!" I'm even OK with anonymous source quotes, to a degree, when they indicate who it is in certain situations and when it comes from somebody with a track record of solid information. As in a report from Glazer..."An anonymous source inside the San Fran organization confirms that Harbaugh is not coming back in 2015" ...as opposed to McGinn writing - "An executive from an AFC team states that Eddie Lacey is running great and the O-Line is the problem".
