Re: Bill Belichick possible candidate (Pro Football Talk Speculation)

The way PFT writes its stories is always important to keep an eye on. If they say "league sources" or "according to ..." then, generally speaking, they're citing another proven source. Whether the source is correct on the matter or not is a different matter.

But "Some are speculating" almost always mean either they themselves have concocted the rumor and are posting it to see what the reaction will be (and get some hits to their site of course), or they saw it on some other message board where someone started it without any substance.

Long story short. It could happen, but it's as likely right now as That Guy winning the Heisman Trophy next year.
