I know things are moving fast and furious. But unless your name is SmootSmack - who is getting his info straight from his connections, I don't see any excuse for not providing a link to the source of your information.

Or if you heard it on the airways, say what show and station you heard it on. Don't throw unsubstantiated crap out there, at least link to the twitter feed so the reader can decide for themselves how credible the information is.

The Mods should not have to chase people on this, we should all know the rules by now.

Harumph.

Agreed.

Let's stick to the reliable sources. There's enough credible rumors floating around without having to wade through the BS of Joe Schmoe on Twitter making shit up.

How do you know that someone posting the rumors also works for a major sport outlet like SmootSmack does, and gets even more accurate better information than him?

B/c no one else has made the claim. If someone else here has legitimate insider information, great - let us know who your source is & how you know this is reliable info. Otherwise, you're just blowing smoke and cluttering the thread. Of course, if you have such insider info, people would probably give such claims more credence if they had been made and demonstrated prior to the a day in which rumour, innuendo and false leads are bound to be rampant (you know, like Smootsmack did).

Double Harumph!!

Well, if I know a few players on the Skins I don't want to air that on Warpath and say so and so said...

Look, it's an exciting first day back to football. If the Mods mandate that you have to source your rumor, so be it.

So something on Twitter isn't a reliable source or does it depend on who's tweeting? Just trying to clarify.

Depends on the source.

Schefter, Mort, local DC media, etc. = good

Horny4Zorny = probably not so good

Honestly I think Moss returns, just seems like the Redskins are not throwing themselves at him.

I hope so, I'd rather have Moss over Edwards. Edwards could be a nice complement to Moss, but Edwards as our #1, now that's scary!

Adam Schefter says the Cowboys are going to release Roy Williams

And here's a link

Twitter (http://twitter.com/#!/ESPNDallas/status/95918262164004866)

As for Sidney Rice and Braylon Edwards both coming here, do you remember where you heard that skinsfaninok? I'm guessing it was on Colin Cowherd's show maybe? Based on the time you posted

I just asked one of our ESPNDallas execs about it and they said they hadn't heard that, that he's still hearing Santonio Holmes. But like I've said I've heard all three from various places now...which probably means we're signing James Jones. But seriously...

SS posts links when possible. If something is just a rumor, he says it is just a rumor. In so doing he inspires trust.
