Please Respect Board Regarding Skins Coaching Anouncement

[SmootSmack]

There are a lot of things that could have been done on that thread to avoid/curtail the mass hysteria.

Be absolutely clear about where you got the information. I heard it on the radio is fine if you add where exactly you heard it. Take Redskins_P's Ray Brown thread for example. He was specific in saying he heard it on SporsTalk 980. Identify the station you heard it on.

If you didn't hear it yourself, but a friend did then say so. "Hey guys, my buddy just told me he was listening to WPTH 1300 AM up in Hagerstown and they're reporting the Redskins just hired Jim Mora. Has anyone else heard anything on this? Thanks"

Thanks to various other resources we can identify pretty quickly what's a legit rumor to follow and what's not

(I realize this is all kind of ironic coming from me, who often has to post "off the record" sources)
