Default Ken Rosenthal
It seems to be a constant that Ken throws something out there, then it gets outright refuted by others.

Is he just that good?

Or does he simply throw mud on the wall to get a news story and a few hits?

Thoughts?

I think he does just say what he wants, but Jon Heyman is WAY worse for that....

Yeah I think Rosenthal does a pretty good job considering he works for Fox Sports. Really all of the guys are just trying to get a story, it is their job. Id say next to being a Lawyer, being a journalist is one of the most dirty/underhanded/scummy jobs you could have.

I think many of the big-name journalists take a series of dart boards, and use the first to pick a player, the second for a team, and the third for a combination of teams and players in said trade.

Father, Uncle and brother are lawyers...

I'm a med student.

You are right though. Lawyers don't play fair; at least my brother never did...

I really do not go for what Rosenthal says, for some reason it is usally inaccurate. And Heyman is another one. I don't believe it untill it is official. Even though it is still fun to talk about all the non-sense trade talk that doesn't ever happen or make sense.

Heyman is so abrasive. I dont like listening to him, he has too much energy.
