Galloway and "Source" on Garrett

[jazzcat22]

Anonymous sources are still verified by editors or other people in charge of the writers, no?

They are supposed to, but how do we know they really do. Maybe a long time ago they did, because they wanted to uphold some integrity. But now, I believe it's all just sensationalism, or for the most part it is.

I assume the "ex-employee" is your unnamed source?

No... I made the ex-employee up, see how easy it is?

I'm one of the Terrell Owens backers but I would support letting him go if that is what it would take to get this offense into gear. Either that need to happen or Garrett need to tell Owens, Witten, Williams, and Crayton to shut their mouths and if they get open, they"ll get the ball! If Wade and Garrett are staying, this needs to get nipped in the bud.

So you would support letting the only WR on the field that absorbs a double team go but would tell everyone to shut their mouths. Which is it? Is it all TO or quite possibly more than one person running his trap?

My money is on the latter.

Call change from the sideline- he didn't change the call, Romo said so himself.

I guess he is lying now...

I'm only interested in releasing TO just to find what the next CRISIS is the media sells the lemmings here...

That would be fun to watch.

Typically the editor can/will verify the source. Recall that Ben Bradlee of the Washington Post was the only one aside from Woodward and Bernstein who knew the identity of "Deep Throat." The editor is responsible, ultimately, for everything in the newspaper.

The fact is, anyhow, the Cowboys organization has not acted in any way as if they think these articles are untrue or these sources "made up." The Cowboys organization does have power. They grant access. Yes, the Cowboys need ESPN, but ESPN needs the Cowboys. Local reporters need the team's cooperation. The team has substantial leverage.

A few players ridiculed some of the reporters, and implied or stated that events were fabricated. But the Cowboys organization has not risen up in any way to support those players' allegations. If you do not think this is significant, you don't have a great deal of experience as a journalist.

Besides, the players themselves have contradicted their own complaints. Werder had no source because nothing happened. Werder's source is a coward. The source shouldn't have been talking. Etcetera.

There is a reason ESPN has used Werder on the Cowboys beat for so many years. Werder has sources. One of those sources, you can be virtually certain, has the last name Jones and pays the bills.

Yep. You got me there.

Omg!! He's off the deep-end now...

You think Jerry gave Werder that story?

Nope. I didn't write that. You read what you apparently wanted to read. I wrote that Jones is almost certainly one of Werder's sources. For that story? No. For other stories? I would bet substantial money.

Gee, I wonder who on this team would be dictating the playcalling.

WADE PHILLIPS!!

Please keep up.

This made for an interesting discussion on Galloway and Co. He said he spoke with someone "who would know" the deal with Garrett. Galloway asked the "source" str8 up if Garrett was in over his head. The "source" thought the question was ridiculous. He went in to say that Garrett is NOT in over his head but his major problem is his playcalling. The "source" says that Garrett is letting the player's demand for the ball dictate his playcalling instead of letting the situation dictate the playcalling. This too, imo, is an indictment of Garrett. I'm one of the Terrell Owens backers but I would support letting him go if that is what it would take to get this offense into gear. Either that need to happen or Garrett need to tell Owens, Witten, Williams, and Crayton to shut their mouths and if they get open, they"ll get the ball!

I didn't think Witten was asking for the ball...
Why would #82 need to shut his mouth? He's one of the few that showed some sack this year.

Honestly if this is true then i really want Garrett gone!!! Seriously how pathetic is it that he cant control a handful of players on the offensive side of the ball. i dont even want to imagine how bad players would run over him if he's ever the head coach...
