    Fentress is a rare fill in when other people are out. I've been told Neil doesn't like him at all. Jaynes is pretty soft in his criticism anymore and he and Neil are on pretty good terms.

    I understand there are people on this forum like you who've had/do have people who are close/have been close to teams.
    But really I'm not going to take things at face value, unless someone is willing to own what they say.
    Well and doesn't sound like a toddler throwing a temper tantrum.
    Nothing against you, I just view it like I do reporters who say "an unnamed/anonymous source"
    Or
    Anonymous gm/players who say what's on their mind but don't have the balls to own it.

    Jaynes might not name, names but he still criticizes the offense/defense.
    Fentress was always rare, but still when he does show up he is always super harsh with his criticism.

    Partially because of my job, I have spoken with many of these people personally. Am I going to directly quote them or identify them? Absolutely not.

    I heard that they're going to outsource the replays to India.

    An anonymous source isn't gospel, can't expect people to take it as such.
    It's completely reasonable and logical to be skeptical of " anonymous sources".
    Hell I could say I have an anonymous source that told me NO is going to trade for Melo.
    That one of my lady-friend is close to his wife.
    Holds just as much weight as you.

    Apparently I'm not allowed to be skeptical of people who will/can never own something.
    I think I was told this during the election too... Fall in line dumb millennial, vote for Clinton.
    I was even extremely nice in my previous post. We'll see if that happens again.

    ^^^....be as skeptical as you like. The people that have known me for years know where some of this comes from . No worries.
