PFT = National Enquirer, sports edition

Worrying about Florio's editorializing is a waste of mental energy that could be better spent counting the number of dust specks on the head of a pin.

So wait, let me see if I get this straight... Davis is mad, because someone "tampered" by telling Belichick that Moss could still run? Isn't that a good thing for the Raiders if they want to trade him? Doesn't that up his value?

I could see if the Raiders were demanding a second rounder, but because someone leaked that he COULDN'T run they had to settle for a 4th, but this seems backwards to me.

Well,

Fox Sports is now weighing in on the story. Those guys are like maggots on roadkill. They don't care what they are being fed as long as they get a bite at it.

FOX Sports on MSN - NFL - Belichick, Moss mum on Davis' allegation

Bassids.....

Not saying that I believe Davis' accusations, but I thought tampering was "no big deal" and "every team did it."

Or was that only when teams like the 49ers and Vikings were tampering?

I really liked PFT when it first came out, but it has really sunk over the last several months. It used to be a source for a lot of legitimate inside information; now it is just rumors and fabrications made up in an attempt to stir up emotions in order to create more page views.

Aside from the fact that PFT seems to be the only media member siding with Al Davis on the firing of Kiffin topic (similar to what certain radio talk show hosts do by playing the role of the contrarian), in the Moss - tampering story they are completely overlooking the fact that (a) the Raiders wanted to move Moss, (b) Al agreed to the trade, (c) the Patriots went to Davis, asked for, and received his permission to talk to Moss! And now Davis is blaming Kiffin for the trade! If it was such a bad deal Al, then why didn't you just put your foot down and veto the deal - like you did when Kiffin wanted to fire Ryan?

Brady deserves a tip of the cap in Moss deal - The Boston Globe

ESPN - Brady helps make cap room for Pats in Moss trade - NFL

Maybe not the dumbest, but darned close.

Let's see fact, opinion, opinion, fact. Any difference?

Naw.

PFT themselves reported back in April of '07 that the Raiders actually gave Moss permission to contact other teams about a possible trade. So how could that now be construed as tampering?
