Twitter isn't a reliable source.....please. TGG wants a verified source with a link and the new proper format that was introduced by Royal Tee. People have been banned for providing false news and the 1st thread that was dumped had no link what so ever.
lol i know right, this is almost the equvialent of resigning Lex hillard, who cares he's just a spot filler . Id like to see us draft Eddie Lacey to fill our RB void
Reliable or not, if the tweet was made, it does provide insight, albeit unreliable insight. It wouldn't be the first time a family member leaked news like this. What's the point of the message board if every single source has to be 100% verified? Everyone might as well just start posting on the comments below a story on individual sites with that kind of restriction. Just my opinion, which is also unreliable.
FYI, Royal Tee even used Twitter as a source in his format. I understand, but since no explanation was given, just criticized, I thought I would ask what is acceptable. I don't believe that is unacceptable.
When someone posts a trade or signing (breaking news) we want an official source. It's unfair to spread info that may not be true....I'm sorry if you don't understand this POV. I've been around here a long time and false news really pisses off most posters. Always it's part of the rules of TGG posting false info, so make sure your info is verified. We can all discuss the posssibilities of a signing, but again, unverified sources are bad news.
This is not the NYJ twitter, Goodson's twitter, or an established news outlets ( reporters) twitter, this is just a guy claiming he knows Goodson saying it happened, or about as weak as it gets.
I should have been more specific....Manish or Peter King on Twitter is fine, it's been verified. Some Homeboy wishing his family member well on the signing isn't cool.
He's not claiming he knows him LOL It's his brother. This tweet is going viral right now. An answer should come soon
Oh I completely agree with you. This isn't quite the source to base this on LOL I was just saying it's his brother, not just someone who knows him
Like I said in the last thread, if this is for real I really like this signing. I watched a lot of Oakland games since I had run DMC the last two years in fantasy and Goodson killed me because he would get all DMCs yards. 195 yards on 16 catches (12.2 avg.) with a score. He had five plays of 20-plus yards on his 51 touches
Twitter is not a reliable source, but, when someone (@Leon Waashington) tweet that he just signed with the Pats it becomes a very reliable source. OK, if you guys say so.
He had some good stats even as a reciver out of the backfield in his days with the Panthers in 2010 40 catches 310 yds 15 first downs, And his Yards per carry as a runner are pretty impressive
I am not arguing with you. I am just trying to get insight for other posters. The same reason the original poster asked why his was closed. That being said, I would trust his brother or relative more than any other Metha post. I understand the new rule, and have posted using the format. Perhaps, if for the short upcoming future, we could clarify why the threads may be closed with educating the poster, versus chastising them. In addition, I always thought using Caps was a form of yelling in text, and that would be completely unacceptable.
He's not used to his full potential, if the signing is true, Goodson may surpise a lot of Jet fans. I like that he's still young and not a lot of tread off his tires.
Goodson gained 221 yards on just 35 carries (6.3 avg.) and 195 yards on 16 catches (12.2 avg.) with a score. He had five plays of 20-plus yards on his 51 touches. Greene rushed for 1,063 yards and eight touchdowns on 276 carries (3.8 avg.) But he had just 19 catches for 151 yards. Goodson is fresh just running behind DMC and had 44 more yards receiving than Greene. Definitely a WCO back.
