There is a big rumor about Randy Moss being traded to the Vikings.  I'm on my cell so I can't post the link.  Its all over PFT.com so take it for what its worth.

Enough of the hate for PFT. If Tenshot said that Jay Glazer from FOX was reporting this, would it be more credible? Because thats who is reporting it. PFT merely has a link to that story.

^^ frankly, yes.  I've seen enough random crap from PFT that people take as fact because its posted on a "news site"

PFT is not a news site any more than this message board is.

I don't see anything about this on either ESPN or NFL.com

And PFT doesn't claim to be a news site. They say it is a rumor site. Blame the readers then, not the site. Personally I read it for the links to stories.

I didn't blame the site.  I TOTALLY blame the readers.  My comments are directed towards those (*cough*NFLNETWORK*cough*) who quote PFT like they're gospel and have Florio on as an "analyst" regularly.  I think they want people to think they are legit so on their 12 random guesses one may come true and they can say they "broke" the story.

Silliness, IMO.

Bill Simmons of ESPN broke the story.

Jay Glazer of FOX confirmed the story is true and in the works


PFT just posted a link to this. Yet people blame PFT. People are dumb! lol

Not to mention NBC owns PFT!!!!

So if you hate on PFT you are esentially hating on the NBC sports department.

Not the same thing at all.  I hate Dancing with the Stars.  Doesn't mean I hate ABC.
I hate ABC for entirely different reasons!  Grin

Pats will turn around and trade for Vincent Jackson

That is why they are trading Moss

Done deal.

The Pats get a 3rd round pick in return.

Considering they only spent a 4th to get him and he gave them a bajillion wins, this is a good move for them.

At the same time, I'm glad we don't have to see Randy Moss again for another 3 years.
