KW: Hey Coach, any interest in Tank?
Payton: Hell, no
KW: Back to you, Jim

You'll have to buy another ticket and get in line again to get on my ride. You're starting to bore me.

True or not, my point was that teams do announce when they have no interest in a player. A recent example was the Lions' coach just claimed to pass on Culpepper. This could be a ploy, but he was quoted.

*sigh* Try again. Unless you didn't say the bolded words. Again, teams don't "announce" anything about NOT being interested in a player unless asked, and most times they don't answer directly when they are asked. In YOUR example of Marineli, he was ASKED. So exactly like said, teams don't go around just making it known who they AREN'T interested in. Just FYI also, people called BS on that LJ nonsense too. Back to the drawing board.

As far as trying to make you look like an "uninformed fan," you're taking yourself too seriously. It's a message board. I don't know you, and don't need to form an opinion of you. Ease back.
