We need another Forum "blogger speculation" (1 Viewer)

[Hipple Long Ware & Peete]

The shark pool should be for reports, quotes, or 'true insiders" (schefter, clayton, etc) but now that everybody and their mother can "blog" their opinions about everything, people just are re-reporting those opinions, and creating a lot of rumors. I think we should have a "speculative/bloggger rumors" section or something, or this is gonna be maddening this year.

How about we put it right next to the forum for complaining about Shark Pool postings.

You're kidding right? Its not called the shark pool for nothing. Take the advise for what its worth, not for fact, or else you'll get killed in your draft!

But wait, weren't bloggers supposed to replace newspapers and real journalists?

The shark pool is drying up when it comes to useful information. Things have been going downhill since two years ago when every other post was bash the Pats post.

You guys wanna hear about this Brandon Marshall trade that might work in Madden?

The key is for people to clearly mark their threads as RUMOR, and then there's no issue. Let's remember that beat writers are, in essence, op-ed guys themselves. A HUGE component of what they pass along is pure speculation, and often sadly not that well formed. It's all the same. The key is to present it in the truest light, and then reacting to it accordingly.
