Unhappy ESPN and Sources or Reports

Anyone else get sick of all the wrong guesses, usually posted as sources or reports when it comes to stories

They had Rafael Furcal everywhere but the Dodgers

They had CC signing with someone besides Yankees

They had Teixiera in Boston

I know a lot of this is the agents fault as they use the media to play teams against each other but why does ESPN keep falling for it? I prefer when ESPN reported the stories, not the rumors

Anyone else agree?

agree! ESPN is really whoring up the industry. They will come crashing down if they dont get a grip.

really wish there was some competition...

Y'all remember HSE? Home Sports Entertainment... thought for a while they'd make it, but I guess just like everything else - one system/company emerges as the leader...
