I wasn't going to go here, but I worked with Peter King at CNNSI (when it was still around) and he was a story confirmer, but didn't break many stories. Pat Kirwan got much better information and got it faster. King has some contacts because he's been in the league forever, but they are mostly writers, not front office types or players. If King is 'breaking' a story such as this one, it's because someone who heard it from someone told him, not that he actually spoke to a principal player. If this is splashed all over the Post or Times or Miami Herald tomorrow then I'd give it a little bit of credence, but until then, I won't. Also, if there was something to it, don't you think one of the ESPN guys would also have a blurb on ESPN.com? Just something to think about.
