It's Tom Curran. I spend a fair amount of time here and have since, damn, I don't know. Ask Ian. I know you're on here a lot too and pay attention to the way we do our jobs. Which is welcome.
I do get defensive about who my sources are because it's just not appropriate to ask a reporter in front of a radio audience. I was pissed.
But consider this: I've been on this beat 15 years. I know everyone in the organization by now. My reputation is pretty good with ownership, coaches and players. I'm not going to risk that or a reputation I worked hard to build with shoddy info from ****ty sources.
Check my track record on injuries over the past few years and the detail I provide. Brady's foot, Warren's hip, Haynesworth in preseason, Brady's knee too.
Anyway, thanks for following all of us. Just wanted to let you know when I get defensive it's not because I'm not believing my source it's that you tell who your source is or give up too much you lose the source.
Peace!
