It's easy, and only takes a few moments.So what you are saying is that any club official can use one of his media sources to convey interest in any player currently under contract without ANY risk, and the league would be OK with it. Well maybe this corrupt and vermin infested cesspool might, but any organization with even a semblance of integrity would not let it slide as you suggest.Schefter isn't breaking any rules.

They give them up all the time. You seem to think having NFL press credentials is a right. It isn't. It's a privilege GRANTED to individuals who have to have certain qualifications and agree to follow a number of protocols. I don't think one of those protocols was aiding certain teams to knowingly tamper with other team's players.I'm saying that your aiming at Schefter is a waste of time. The reporter is not going to give up his sources. And the reporter isn't breaking any rules.

So while Shefter isn't breaking any laws by reporting what he was told from his source, the league has every right to pull his credentials if he were to be "uncooperative" in any investigation that might occur on this matter.
LOL. No, I've made my point. And made clear to everyone but apparently you. Sorry, but I don't have the time to try and clear it up for, since I've made the attempt 3 or 4 times already. So I guess you'll have to remain in the dark for now. I've been around you too long to get drawn into one of your pages long parsing debates. If you want to hear yourself talk, you'll have to do it on your own.You seem to think that you're making a point. You're not. The NFL is not going to pull ESPN's #1 reporter off the line.
@AdamSchefter: Water is wet according to sources.

IMO, Ken's point was made clearly, and that point is completely separate from whatever the NFL subsequently chooses to do or not to do.You seem to think that you're making a point. You're not. The NFL is not going to pull ESPN's #1 reporter off the line.
So you mean never?They'll get to it after they finish investigating Deflategate, Browns texting, Falcons piping in crowd noise, hiring a new Bones McCoy and planning the next X-Mas party.
