Just refuse access and interviews to anyone who mis reported or got the facts wrong without a major apology in the headlines.

That won't stop some of them. The guy that reported that Hardy skipped out last week without informing the team didn't really have access. He just made up the story when Hardy showed up as ill on the injury report.

Meh, they could have told him he was getting demoted on Tuesday before announcing it publicly. BTW, didn't Jerry mouth off to the media that McFadden should start a day before the announcement was made by Garrett?

Yep. Coach Jones already made the decision before Assistant Coach Garrett could step to the podium and make it official. ;)

well that would certainly kill the media and they would never have interviews again.

No, it wouldn't kill the media. Quite the contrary, they'd move to secondary sources.

I used to tell people, even if you don't talk to me, people who know you will. I'll get someone to speculate, so if you want your side represented, it would behoove a subject I'm writing about to speak with me.

You can't have your story or side represented if you say nothing.

I don't care for Randle at all, but I didn't believe the story that he stormed out because he was demoted to begin with. He likely wasn't going to play the next 2 games...so why would he care if McFadden is made the starter? He's not going to play the next couple of games anyway and it would be reasonable to understand that you're not going to come back as the starter after missing a couple of games.

I figured the situation was either misinterpreted or a lie. Then Fisher started to make more sense of it.

I blame the local Dallas media. Other teams would have media members there to help protect the truth and therefore the player and the team before BSPN got their grimy paws on the story. Instead, the Dallas local media just wants to make news for themselves.

They asked Jerry about McFadden and he said he deserves to start.

Yes, their secondary sources are their backsides.

So we have the injury, the demotion, the suspension and the Ratliff situation. Anything esle?

They have to blame this on GHardy somehow.

Am I the only person who doesn't care why Randle left VR? :huh:

I really don't give a crap why either.. I just don't like the player so it just gives me more satisfaction. He is just one of those draft picks I hated, and he hasn't done jack for me to want to root for him. His crap throwing Dez under the table, the stealing, Handed the Job, meat on the bone, and his insubordination have just solidified my thoughts on the player.

In case anyone says I have an agenda, you I sure do I want this turd off the team I do not care for the player. So I am just being clear here don't want anyone to call me a hater or misunderstand me.

According to Garrett's press conference this morning, Randle had permission to hastily depart VR yesterday to take care of personal business. Kind of throws a monkey wrench in the OP's premise.
