Ugh. I haven't like Len for quite a long time. I think he's smug, a terrible journalist and has few real sources that he has no desire to expand. (I think there's a reason he no longer works for ESPN).
He wrote a story on Rasheen Mathis holding out of training camp and it turns out he never even contacted Mathis or his people to ask them about it. When he released the story, a freaking blogger had a denial from Mathis via Twitter within a few hours (and yet Big Media ran with the story days later without bothering to contact Mathis either)
If you happen to bother to read any of Pasquarelli's stuff still, do yourself a favor and find a better source.
End rant.
