Here's my take on people who use have "sources" they can't name.

1) Chances are, if you can't post the person's name, you aren't supposed to be putting it on the internet for thousands to read.

2) If you can't post the source's name, you really hold no credibility.

Those two together really make this hard to believe.

Forget it Strotty... you can't reason with idiots who have "sources."  Your type of logic and sense aren't welcome around here.
Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

I know it's a vastly different level of intrigue, but where would our country be without Deep Throat? There is a value to anonymous sources, and there is a very valid reason for those that use them to protect them, as well as there being a reason for those that use them to disclose the information they glean from them with the public.

But as far as someone with 2 posts to sign on just to post that and have any level of credibility? I find that incredibly unlikely. Especially when the person's other post was this:

You're all a bunch of f-ing losers who waste your time writing nonesense and then responding to each others' nonesense.  I do appreciate it, as it gives me something to read from time to time.  P.S- Wade is a joke anyways.  He's a little crybaby who claims injury whenever relevant. He's dead to me.

All I am saying is the people who have talked to sources are the ones who have NOT posted/written anything publicly, because there's nothing new to report right now, and the information received from sources is private...

And that somehow lends credibility to his claims? Especially in light of his flaming/trolling history?

Jim Ganzer posted publicly about a rift between Buzz and LW without specifically naming who told him that. There are other people that are usually reliable that have posted on the Scout premium board without giving names of where they got their information from.

Discounting a source simply because the source doesn't want their name to be revealed is definitely premature, especially in light of your major...there may well be a time in your career where you need to use an anonymous source, and there's nothing at all wrong with that, if that's what it takes to get a pertinent story to the public.

Three things we need to discuss more.

1.  The greatness that is Tom Crean

2.  Aaron Durley.  Did he play this year?

3.  How crapy the studens are.  Do they even show up for weeknight games?

Just that if it was a SMUrf he would have signed up 15 minutes ago, not 2 years ago.

This isn't an anonymous source. This is "someone in the athletic department who I talked to." Jim Ganzer and Jeff Goodman talked to sources who knew they would be used in a story. That is an anonymous source.

...not to mention Ganzer and Goodman are credible journalists with known sources. Big, big difference.

the logic here not only prints frack but also writes kitten in replacement for another word meaning cat
