Aaron Wilson is a verified beat reporter for the Texans. Soren Petro is a verified beat reporter for the Chiefs. If you accept one as definitively true, you shouldn't discount the other as definitively false. I understand wanting this to happen. But fans need to look at things analytically instead of just emotionally. according to soren's linkedin, he's a graduate from syracuse university's journalism school and has hosted the same radio show in KC for 19 years.

Which means he shouldn't be making stupid comments like "or anyone else." He's a beat reporter, he doesn't have national ties. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one thing about Beane that holds true. He puts a value on something and doesn't budge. He does it with contract offers as well. This would not surprise me if it were the case.

Whatever reported interest KC has had, was nothing more than KC just doing due diligence and kicking tires. My source is Me and MATH. I hate LAZY reporters who can't comprehend the cap. KC has 6 million in cap space....you wanna know if KC is in on something? They'll announce a Chris Jones contract extension that frees up cap space. Until then KC isn't in on anything where they have to assume some crap contract. Also.... KC isn't going to get 50% more production from their WR room by spending 50% more on it. the ROI isn't there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. He's just as reputable. And let's be honest - neither is a Schefter, Rappaport, Florio, Glazer, etc. And it's always possible that both are right. That Wilson was correct when he posted what he posted but since then Arizona has countered with things no one around the league is interested in. Take all info and analyze it. It just bothers me when fans get so worked up that they'll throw critical thinking out the window and will only listen to the things they want to hear and try and smear anything else simply because it's not what they want to hear. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Who Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Years ago, I used to work in a Christian bookstore. Old folks would come in and ask for a large print, compact Bible. I'd tell them, you can have the tiny Bible or the large print, but you can't have both. Seems to me the Cardinals wanting not to retain any salary and also receive higher draft picks is the equivalent. No one is going for that, so compromise or maybe carry an expensive disgruntled WR on your roster for the year. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's probably puffing his chest out trying to act like people aren't going to take advantage of him. We may get screwed by his lack of experience and another GM who just wants to make a splash. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t believe some previously rich sports star suckered people into paying him money. To this day boggles my mind. I really need a 2003-2004 Mustang Cobra. All my friends have toy cars to drive in the summertime. Maybe I should start a go fund me because I should be able to drive a Mustang too. To this day, a Terminator still makes my head turn.

Things could have been heating up. And since then, Arizona has asked for more than what's offered and everyone's out. You're free to believe what you want to believe. But this is a message board. If I make a point, I'm not going to freak out if someone responds with a counterpoint questioning the logic in it.

nosejob Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Funny Tasker was saying today that this is all pretty much made up wishful thinking. Not he or anybody he knows has heard jack squat (not quoting) and there;s nothing going on with restructures, salaries or anything else that would indicate anything taking place....and after following this thread, that sucks. I'll just hope for to be surprised all of a sudden with breaking news. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOUSE Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 I seriously doubt anyone here believes any of the rumors about OBJ or Hopkins. We all know better. Just a typical Bills off season when people make up s*** 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll just hope for to be surprised all of a sudden with breaking news. What some rationale people have said 40 pages ago... To think this started with: a song, orange juice, people following others on social media (who would ever think), and ALOT of information coming from random sources. This will end with @Warriorspikes51 and @IronMaidenBills blaming Beane for not pulling the trigger on this... meanwhile Beane is likely laughing at all the conjecture and will probably laugh it off at his next presser when asked about it. Critical thinking skills are lacking, instesd we have wishful thinking for days on here 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking in all the info and thinking critically has been thrown by the wayside in favor of pure emotion of just wanting him here. Don't try saying all could be true or we don't know what's true and what isn't. And don't dare try to imply the flight to Arizona could be for the Owner's Meeting this weekend in Arizona. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
