What did I miss when away from Patsfans?

Reports are that he looks good.

That may be true with most of the analysts, but not Clayton. Most of the time Clayton is just reporting what he hears around the league, but when asked to give predictions he is usually wrong the majority of the time. Let's not forget that ESPN fired Salisbury over Clayton; They claimed it was that one incident, but that was just an excuse to get rid of him. ESPN used to have Clayton and Salisbury on together every week and Salisbury would call Clayton on everything he got wrong.....apparently that's a no-no at ESPN.

Looking at track records, ESPN might break a story first but I won't believe it until someone like Schefter or Reiss confirm it.

Please. It's easy to present the facts that you've learned. The idiots at ESPN get deservedly massacred for being bottom of the barrel in the analysis department.

Their analysis is just fine. We live in an information age where everything is happening in a 24 hour cycle and they are forced to 'analyze' things the very moment something breaks, no matter how preliminary the information appears to be. It's no surprise that they aren't 100% correct 100% of the time, since nobody is. Besides, why the hell would anyone care about any analysis done by anyone in the media as anything other than as a curiosity and data point? The media is there to provide the information. It's up to the viewers/listeners/readers to analyze the information.

I don't have a high opinion of ESPN at all. I think that network lost its way a long time ago. That doesn't mean that the people on air don't know what they are doing.

I don't know. I don't trust a single thing that comes out of Bristol.

Au contrar, ever hear of Bionics? It isn't a coincidence that they cancelled the Bionic Woman just in time for Brady's surgery. All this infection thing was a ruse for them to replace his leg with a Bionic one.
